It's heavy, and you'll notice that in your mpg.
And you better make sure you're good friends with the dealer, because you'll be there more than you'd like (electronics SUCK).

If you want something newer, get a EM1 and put in a K24 swap and slam a turbo on :P
I think I would...

- Fri Jun 27, 2008 12:48 am #59918 I know that both BMW (German) and Honda (Japanese) cars are 'import' to you guys, but over here, they're waaaaaaay to common.
And I've seen so much trouble with German cars, they look really good but there is NOT going to be one on my driveway registered to me.

An E46 M3 CSL + supercharger is super tight y0 FAST btw, and in black... they look plain old HORNY :woot:

But keep the EJ tho :lol:

thats probably 1-2 years down the line still. I got to wait till I finish school. For now I will order another clutch kit and new starter and figure it out.

- Sat Jun 28, 2008 1:27 pm #60056 Yeah, you just can't stay with a Civic forever, at a certain point in life it's time to step up in the motor game.
I'm almost 25 now, if I still have my Civic 5 years from now, it would def. be the second car.

Btw, what clutch are you going to get?
My Exedy organic is holding up good now, but a friend of mine shot his in two weeks with a boosted stock B16A2 (rated 280hp), told me to go for a Competition Clutch stage 5...
Since you're pushing over 270hp out of the D, you're in need of a good clutch too I suppose :P

- Sat Jun 28, 2008 11:48 pm #60121 I orderd a 6puck act clutch disc sprung.


It can withstand 350lbs at the engine. so that means I will probably keep the car longer than I would've if i had the old clutch in.
