Cool New to site..

Whats up HCF? I was messing around on the web and came across this site. Checked some stuff out for a few days then decided to join. I enjoy long walks on the beach and romantic getaways LOL..... I am an ASE certified Transmission specialist and I enjoy the hell out of it.. I'll be honest I don't know everything about cars or Civics but I damn sure do try to.. I have a 2000 Civic EX swapped with a B18C true JDM Type-R engine and 5 speed out of a 1999 Honda Integra. It has a no name intake that is kinda ugly, no name header and header back magnaflow exhaust, and a Exedy light weight flywheel. It has an s200 ecu from Phearable.net. Other than that It's bone stock. The suspension is Skunk2 sport series coilovers and a Skunk2 front upper strut tower brace.. It needs to be lowered but I don't know where the wrench is for the coilovers.. I've been debating on what to do with it, all motor or boost?! I think after a while of weighting the odds I'm going to boost it.. Love the car (now if I could get my wife to quit tearing it up LOL) She blew the 2nd gear apart and now first and third are making noise as well.. Now I have to buy another trans to swap it out so I can build my ITR trans. I would just pull mine and build it but I would have to pull it out rip it apart and order parts. I can't do that because it can't be on the lift that long because we need them lifts to make money.. Well on to a few pics.....

Welcome to the forum! Now, go out and paint those sideskirts!

Not a fan of the wheels, but at least they are not like 18's or anything like that lol.

I think the coilover tool you are looking for are called spanner wrenchs, but I could be wrong. I may have a set laying around somewhere, but I have no idea where they could be. I have seen people just use a screwdriver and a hammer to break the collars free and adjust the height.

BOOST it! That is, if you want some real power to play with.

I'm wanting to make an SI clone so I'm not bothered by the side skirts..
I don't really like the rims either. I am saving up to get some 15" motegi track light six star, I think they will be pretty dope. Yeah there called spanner wrenches. Yeah I'm leading more to boost
