xtcnrice

18x9 +30. Guess I'll find out in a month or so if they'll fit on 225/40s without modification

can't wait to see your car too! you better come out!

waaasobe

I'm going for a month at the beginning of the summer but, ill hopefully be around after that i gotta make big moves this year to keep up appearances haha.

xtcnrice

bro, that modulo front is so dirty. 'nuff said when you show up

waaasobe

still need coils and an exhaust once thats complete i will be happy for all of a week lol me and ou will kill the cu2 game this year

xtcnrice

Exhaust will have to wait til 2016 for me. I got my eyes set on something else in addition to the wheels this year

iCrap

supercharger?!

xtcnrice

lmao nope. Never in this autotragic.

Rdub81

SlickxAc

oh shit i never knew who you were, now i know from instagram! cuz i commented on these haha!

xtcnrice

haha yeah. I've been through your thread quite a few times very helpful in helping me decide on what I can and cannot do with this car. And your car looks awesome! But yeah you're rarely on here so that's probably why you didn't know hahah

Can't wait to see your update for this season

SlickxAc

yeah ive been kinda busy lol, car is currently in the shop atm. it should be done by saturday.

Janagan_ua7

Hey man, your cars looking goodd , cant wait to see the new wheel setup

Jaheri_cbp

Bbk? I thought you had the rl brakes lined up already??

xtcnrice

Yeah "BBK" . The RL BBK. I'll show them off when they're ready!

Jaheri_cbp

I want those rl calipers badly! Gotta get wheels first though cuz I refuse to run spacers.. And boost has to come before rims cuz just cuz, and clutch has to come well you get the point.

jGuts89

Hey man, I am so jelly of your whip.

Love the stance, love the wheels, love the drop, love everything about it man! Good job!

xtcnrice

Thanks man! Appreciate the kind words. I hope your opinion doesn't change because I have a new look for this upcoming season

jGuts89

I don't think so, you seem to have a knack for this. What do you got planned?

suicide doors? Blue Honda emblems? Flames painted down the side? Oh man that would be so sweet!

xtcnrice

hahahh.. you'll see

ssjoeboe9

Yeah join the boost club! It's tight...and super exclusive.

BothKneesDown

Just read your thread. Very nice. I look forward to seeing more!

Delaying the exhaust though?! That's what I'm waiting for. I want to know what the RV6 PCD + test pipe sounds like with the Fujitsubo exhaust.

Either way nice ride!

Jaheri_cbp

It's coming don't worry .. Maybe I should build my own photo build thread so that I stop trolling your and xtc's pages lol... Would be kinda boring pictures though since all my mods are performance based and I don't have fancy switchbacks or roof spoilers, or stance, or modulo bumpers and skirts, or anything flashy except my door handles and exhaust... Look at my cool sway bar guys, it's gray now!

xtcnrice

Nah feel free to trash my thread @Jaheri. Not like I'm writing a book here... they're internet pages

And yeah to each their own. I love performance mods, but given that I ended up with a 5AT, I feel like I've done more than enough for this car performance wise (PCD, FP, RSB soon, brakes soon). If I had a 6MT, whole other story even if she's my DD. Guess she's kind of a mixed breed on here with some perf mods and aesthetics. Not gonna lie, I enjoy both kinds of mods with this car. But in all seriousness a performance oriented build thread would be nice. Doubt you care but, I'd subscribe haha

@BothKneesDown, trying my best to stay "on budget" this year haha. I have plans to buy my first home within the next couple of years, so it'd be wise not only to work on my financial habits, but to save some capital while I'm at it

But trust me, this season hasn't even started yet and I already wish it was the next year so I could order an exhaust haha. The car sounds like poo with the PCD and stock exhaust. I decided against hacking up my stock catback for a second resonator to kill the rasp as I'd like an option to go back to complete stock if something ever happens and I decide that I want to or need to sell the car (doubt it though, love driving this thing). So it'll likely be a quality exhaust next year, like the Fujitsubo . I don't have the RV6 testpipe though, so even when the exhaust comes, I won't have the exact setup you're searching for

Jaheri_cbp

Bro trust me I love your car, all the extremely tasteful mods you have done so far, and all your support on the forums.. But auto or not I still think you should boost that fucker lol.. Maybe I'll build a photo thread, and then instead of pics behind some fancy bushes buildings or bridges after a nice wax, I just post all the links to the threads that I have in the "performance" section lol.

ssjoeboe9

Are you going turbo or SC?

This is my first boosted car..ever. It's been fun/frustrating at the same time. Any time I need support, the civic forums come to the rescue. 9th gen guys have done a lot performance mods (and a lot of different routes to get some pretty good results). Those guys really push the k24 to it's breaking point. It's pretty cool haha

I think you should do a centrifugal SC. Like the Russian guy did! That looks like it would be fun!

I was hoping that my SC build would help people take the leap, but I feel like Im letting the community down with how slow my progress is

Maybe in a few months I'll have some results worth sharing and aspiring to... that's the dream at least

Jaheri_cbp

SC... Turboing is not as in the realm of possibility for me and for the most part a custom job. I have already been building up slowly to go SC so might as well stick to my guns. I'll prob just go with the ct kit because I'm not trying to achieve big peak numbers as much as a car that's improved throughout the power band.. The kraftwerks kit can get some bigger numbers but it's very peaky in power and some say not as usable power wise to the ct unless you're doing highway pulls. I don't plan on cracking open my motor anytime soon so I'll be happy to start with a clean stage 1 setup with the possibility of after cooling in the future. Next will be clutch, fuel pump, and big injectors (in that order). Trust when I say you revolutionized the boost game for cu2 owners joe.. You give others hope lol.. And yeah those 9th civic guys are fucking nuts lol... I've learned a lot on that forum though too.. They really prove that this motor has near the same capabilities of being squeezed for power as the older k20s with the support. I see a bright future for the cu2 just because of the support found in the civic world. Especially when they start being more affordable. Plus our cars are just sexy lol

ssjoeboe9

You're gunna love the ct kit, and honestly not too bad to install (albeit instructions for cu2 are only typed out with pictures from a civic. At some steps it leaves you scratching your head, because they are setup a little differently than us)

I had the pump on my list and injectors. But the CT kit comes with larger injectors that are big enough for stage 2 already, and Alani (one of the other SC tsx here) told me to hold off on the pump and he was right. I haven't even gone past 80% duty on my setup.

xtcnrice

Apologize for the shitty iPhone pics + dirty car... just couldn't wait.





Look who's working that shotgun



That 3in lip in the back. I know she's FWD, but fuck it. Our car isn't exactly quick to begin with, so why not Yes I know.. needs a bit more low.





TLX or TSX?




Surrounded by them..


Hopefully I'll have some better pics soon lol

iCrap

Gotta get that 200hp to the rear wheels somehow! oh, wait......


seriously though looks sick. i like it those way better than the other wheels.
