Photo bucket
i thought, you were selin it, luks smart tho, youve got the same lexus lights as me.got ne side on pics,ive bin struglin 2 get pics up 4 ages every1 else can do it except 4 me lol
i am sellin it. just though id get it some recognition and fame before i get rid of it lol. i have got a side on pic but it will take me ages to get it up here.
heres a side on pic
sorry if the quality is not that good, i took them on my phone.
ye should keep it its smart
is it loud wid dat exaust, my m8s jus got 3 1/2 inch 1 4 a megane, (dom davo)
thats what im thinkin, but if i get a 1 or 1.2 litre corsa my insurance will go down by £400 or £500. seein as im only workin part time, it a lot of money to save. i wana keep it, wana get new wheels for it now!
got 2 make sacrifices 2 have a nice car, i wouldnt really say i can afford mine 2 a point but its worth the payments, and the insurance lol
it is loud but not too loud. big rumble sound then when you rev it it sounds really powerful!
if i do keep it im either getting 15 inch Wolfrace Street Octane alloys or 15 inch Lenso RS5s. or maybe even team dynamics pro race 2 in white?
The mighty Honda Snivic is defo for sale now, ive made my mind up. offers around £2000 or swap for a 1 or 1.2 corsa of same value.
why would you want to swop your civic for a corsa?
insurance. my mates are goin to university next year so we r plannin a holiday and i wont be able to afford it if i keep my civic, if i got a corsa my insurance would drop by about £500 so i can save mony easier. its a pain in the arse havin to get rid of it but its what iv got to do.
does anyone know where can paint alloy wheels? if i keep my car i want to get either new alloys or get mine painted white.
Cruisewirral Sponsors

make ye mind up m8, 1 min ye sellin the nxt ye havin ye wheels sprayed 2 keep lol, jus keep it end of, the car will give you more fun over a period of time than a 1 or 2 week holiday, although i no goin away wid m8s is gud but i jus wouldnt risk my car 4 it
if someone is interested in my car then il defo sell but if i havent heard off anyone in a month im defo not sellin it. i love it, its my baby! just tryin to plan things if i dont get rid of it.
just bought some subs, a Mutant NW10DBP sub enclosure. 2x10" subs, 150W+150W RMS. very nice, only cost me £55 from Halfords in bromborough (at least one good thing about workin for halfords lol). just got to get an amp for them now. got a good idea for the install (its a secret). ill put pics up when it done. still got to put my Infinity components in my doors too.
i want to get some new number plates, like the square Jap style ones, are they illegal? does anyone know where i can get them from? i want show plates made with SNIVIC on them too. by the way snivic is my cars name.
quick little update on the MIGHTY SNIVIC: i found some Japanese wheels on this website (
www.rarerims.co.uk), all white, imported from Japan. if you go on it, look for the wheels called Flite, let me know what you all think they would look like on my civic. cheers.
Click Me these ones?
if so there nice
Admin Edit : URL Tidy
yep they are the ones. in white. (slightly street race/JDM/pimp, a multi-talented wheel!)
they look like tsw volcanos, nice like
bought these wheels last nite. £110 for the set. 15 inch. gona get them painted white.
finished my install, gona get pics up soon.
gonna look a bit like sanchezs wheels
im gona look for quotes on how much it will cost to get my car painted white and colour coded.
heres a quick little mod i did yesterday. painted the silver logo red to match my install.
im going to do the Honda 'H' on the front and the back this week too.
heres my new alloys. nice little 15inchers.(sorry sbout the quality, taken on my phone again)
also heres a little pic of my boot install. its not 100% finished yet but it close enough.

U done this yet? it'd look better if u got the genuine Type R style honda badge.Try Ebay
CivicBoy the sub box and the amp are both Mutant. very cheap but really good sound and build quality. if you are goin to the cruise on saturday come over and ill show you what it sounds like.
Scoop, im glad you said that, i though it might look a bit rubbish doin the Hs like i did the Civic logo. gona have a quick look on eBay for the Type R badges now. cheers
i think the other wheels were much better suited 2 your car, it made it stand out more
i agree, but i think if its lowered it'll luk fine on 15's
the 17s looked better but the 15s are so much better for handling etc. im sort of goin for the JDM look. plus the ride on the 17s was rock hard, with these its dead comfy. im more into ICE than brilliant looks though to be honest.
just finished adding more to my install!! heres a list of everything thats in there now:
JVC KDLHX551 headunit
2 sets of Infinity 9613 6x9s
2 10 inch Mutant subs
Mutant 4 channel amp
Mutant 2 channel amp
and i have got a set of Infinty components waiting to go in my front doors.
Install is a bit messy at the minute, hence no pictures but when its done and dusted and all neat and tidy il defo have pics up of it.
Getting to like the JDM look more and more, it's kinda boring until you appreciate the stance of some cars. Install sounds like it's coming along well, look forward to seeing it mate
i like the subtle look of JDM, its coz i love the euro look so its the same sort of thing really. i think mine looks alrite without being lowered. the install mite take a while, lots of thinkin, making and tinkering needed to make it look as nice as it sounds.
it looks alright but does need lowering
yeah, il get around to lowering it but at the minute i dont think it looks that high to be honest. its probably to do with everythin thats in the boot.
right. an update is needed i think. all my old install has been binned!! i now have my 2 channel mutant amp powering a 12inch Fli sub. i have my bucket seats and harnesses fitted and i have one more little secret modification nearly finished, hopefuly itl be ready for the photo shoot. no pics yet sorry but will have some soon.
my new plans are to build a bigger better install. i want 3 12inch Fli subs and 3 of the new Fli 2 channel amps. i will get round to lowering it eventually but i have been very very skint the past few months. oh yeah im also buying a big tacho and shift light off scooby.
come on tell us your secret mod fella. or at least give us a clue. i hate waiting
okay, i bought my 15s a few months ago and said i wanted to get them painted white. seeing as i dont have the money to take them to sparyforce or anywhere im having a go myself!! got two done so far and im doing the other two 2moro hopefully. putting the two that are done on my car today so if anyone sees me let me know wot u think.
while im having a big update of my car topic, i forgot to say b4 that i have also got a Type R gear knob now, a Honda sunscreen and new wing mirrors (not M3 mirrors) they look like veilside/ganador mirrors with indicators on.
here are some pics (taken on my phone)
yes thats bird shit after the "a"
i have got other pictures but they wont work for some reason.
Dont like the way the A goes over the honda emblem,was that the way u intended it to be done?
ye. its just one long sticker, got it from the ripspeed show. its only on coz its attention grabbing.
those wheels will look good on your car. btw dont swap ye civic for a corsa mate, seriously dont lol. iv got a civic meself like yours. can't let the civics down not many of us around
sorry to change the subject but seeing as ye have a civic, do u know whether i would be able to lower me car 40mm with 18inchers on and do u know where i can get white dials for me civic aswell. same car as yours.
reply back please mate
ive been thinkin of sellin my car again in the new year to get a saxo vts, but i have changed my mind....again. i now know pretty much what i am getting for the civic in the new year. a lip kit (front and back), lowering springs, short shift and also the stage 1 tuning package from funky power (should give me close to 100bhp then). im also re-painting my alloys, thinkin of goin for gloss black spokes with a red rim. any thoughts welcome.
What power is it standard?
its got 88bhp standard. so with an extra 10bhp i should be lookin at saxo vtr type power.
what does the stage 1 deely actually comprise of? is urs a vtec engine? 98BHP still aint gonna be up to much like,how much does stage 1 cost?
hey scoop you think a 58bhp ecsrote is powerful so do one.
When did i ever say a 58BHP escort was poweful?
a)my old escort was 74BHP (RRd at 71 IIRC)
b)i never "stage 1" tuned my 1.4 just bolted on a cone filter and an exhaust for looks and sound,not performance
c)i dont think any standard escort (other than the cossie) is powerful,that includes the RS2k
im 19. and by the way my "not up to much" 88bhp engine has done 125mph in 4th gear, its raced and beat xr2i's, xr3i's, corsa sports, saxo furios, clios and a lot of other hatch backs. the stage one tuning package comprises of a tenzo r cold air induction kit and a performance manifold (cant remember the manufacturer at the minute). oh and im sorry to say this scoop but my little 1.4 has pretty much the same power as most ford 1.6 engines.
oh and that stage 1 in inverted commas, i take it you think it was me who called it the stage 1 package, well if you go on funky powers website, youl see that there is a stge one and stage two tuning package available. stage 1 is £325 and stage 2 is £695.
heres the link for the tuning package
funky power
4pound per horsepower on a n/a like your is quite good value for money.
is this all your doing to your engine or are their anymore plans?

I dnt think sanchez was refering to you when he asked your age I think it was meant for scoop.
oh right, hahaha. i think after this i wont be able to get anymore power out of it so il stop after that. maybe think of an engine swap, b16a if i can afford one!
your best bet would be to get of a b16a engine and chuck it in, you will get it done for £1500 and it will see your car up to 160bhp. and before you strat going on about insurance etc, well lets just say that with that tunning kit etc etc and all the other mods you have your presant insurance is more than likely void so why not chuck the engine in.
fair point. its just a lot of money to spend in one go but i suppose it could work out cheaper in the long run. might get in touch with adrian flux or somethin if i swap the engine for the insurance. maybe i should go all out and wedge a h22 engine in it hahaha.
lol, stuff that bang a k20 init, you ll be the envy of all honda drivers, remember though, with speed you need stopping, so also id advise a hub conversion.
u know i think i might do that, ive got £4k lying around for an engine hahaha. if i do an engine conversion im gona look at a vti hub conversion, but id have to get new alloys coz vti's are 5 stud hubs.
no they aint scott, its only the new shape, so its ok, trust me, i ved owned one. shape
so does that mean i could get vti disks and pads on my car as it is then?
oh by the way, im thinkin of gettin a bodykit. im gona get the buddy club rear bumper but dont know if i should get the buddy club front or the blitz front.
im guessin you know what the buddy club front bumper looks like.
buddy club front looks well the best to me.
Personally, I don't like the look of the Blitz one at all
i like the look of the blitz one but i do actually think the buddy club front bumper suits the EK shape perfectly
go for the boomex aligator mouth one, its class. and yess, 100% you can do a hub change and its 4 studs.
does anyone think these would be worth gettin? i havnt heard of them before so im a bit weary of them.
suspension all comments welcome.
while im at it il mention my new exhaust. the civic went into Sprayforce to get a new cat-back system. it was done within the day and its exactly what i was lookin for. its 2inch piping from the cat back now as apposed to 1.25inch (i think) as standard, with a twin slashcut inwardly rolled tailpipe. it sounds and looks the dogs danglies!!! cheers to everyone at sprayforce for the amazin work and service (and discount coz of my cruise wirral stickers hahaha). il take some pics when the weathers better.
ordered a couple of new things for the civic this week.
ordered a set of jap import plates and....lowering springs!!
40mm drop Gmax springs, should be here soon and will hopefully look very nice with my new(ish) 16inch Honda alloys (off the new shape civic i think). almost forgot about my Tenzo R short shifter that i need to get fitted too.
just tryin to sell my sub and amp and then i might buy some other things to.
