thanks for the welcome i cant stand body kits i am all go no show type of girl. a showy car will get you looks but speed will get you respect and especially if you have a clean sleeper that no one will expect that you have a ton done to the motor and can smoke all of the rice kids out there.

a sleeper is a car that is clean that looks factory with maybe a carbon fiber hood and lowered just depends but its a clean car with no body kit and gay *** wing it just looks clean and is decently fast and doesent stand out to much in traffic. atleast thats my Interpretation of it.

nothing done to the exterior, no flashy crap etc...alll money dumped into engine to make it go fast. so when u go to the track or w/e ppl are like "ohh look another crappy stock civic blah blah blah" then BAM!! 10sec car!!!! haha well if it's a 10sec civic i think there might be something to give it away but ya, i think u get the drift...

well i am new to the forum...i am a girl that loves cars and to get dirty while working on them.... i just bought a 95 civic si and i love it. my civic has 127000 on it but it has a rebuilt motor i cant wait to start on my mods. i want to turbo it first but i still am not sure what i want... but i do know i want a clean and fast daily driver. it is a VTEC 1.6 5 speed i thought about doing a motor swap to a B16.
Hey Girly Si, welcome to the forums!

I hope to help with any advice that I could give, and maybe get a bit of advice in return. First off, nice choice for a ride. I love the Si! I want one, but I like the sleeper idea, infact so much, that I want to turn my 95 DX coupe, into an Si or faster, undercover. My D15B7 has 115,000mi on it, I just got some Honda MTF(manual transmission fluid) yesterday, going to change that out, from the standard oil (one piece of advice, never use synthetic for your transmission, I have learned this valuable lesson, use Honda MTF, or any motor oil, just not synthetic)

I used 5W-30 synthetic motor oil, Mobil 1, and after 15,000miles i picked up a 1st and 3rd gear grind, and synchro chatters, but I changed it out for standard Dino-oil 5w-30 and the problem seems to have gone-away(still slightly grinding/chatter, but not as bad) I think I did cause a problem with using synthetic motor oil in the transmission, but that is one lesson I hope to teach everyone about.

Post some pics, i think we all want to see your Si, and you modeling it too ? :P

Good luck, and I am here to help everyone, just hollar.
