Talking East Bay Not STi New 09 Civic Si Sedan

Well I traded in my 2004 WRB STi back in July. I was starting to run into issues with it so I traded in instead of fixing it.

This is the car I promised myself and my parents that I would not mod :wink:

Mods so far:

Engine-

T1R Test Pipe
X-Intake
DIY Black Dip Stick

Interior / Exterior-

6K PnP HID Kits
JDM CTR Shift Knob
JDM CTR Hazard Button
Mugen License Plate Bolts

Gold Volk Rays 18 x 7.5 +43 CE28-L aka LE28
General Exclaim UHP 225/40R18






Before and around the time I got it:







Best pic from before the new wheels taken by none other then Mr EJ himself



Unfortnately I do not plan on dropping the car so do not think about saying that. My parking spot is funky and makes it look it taller then it is, well I think it does

how's that downgrade treating you? These car's are peppy, i'm aware.

Do the hondata reflash for the ULTIMATE sleeper mod.

Not such a downgrade considering this N/A Motor is meant to be revved all day long. I <3 it still, yes I miss the quick power and torque from my old STi the way I had it set up, but oh well.

I would love to get Hondata for it, but for now it runs good so I will leave it as is.

Also I am looking forward to getting some better pics of my car on level ground. It does not look that tall on level ground I swear!

In today's economy that would very well be an Upgrade, but this is still an STI board I'm just saying.. Hehehe


PS: I'm Diggin' the color combo & mods though

Ha ha thanks Richard! I plan on getting the HFP Front Lip, and that is about it, call it a wrap! If and when I stop buying guns and ammo I will think about getting Hondata and a Racing Header for it too. But for now I get a huge rush driving this lil DD around.
