Yeah but you also act like it's better than it is. You claimed in another thread that you have 115WHP on a D15Z1 with only intake/header/exhaust/intake manifold. D15Z1 has 90 BHP, meaning you would have had to have gained more than 25 WHP from those mods, which doesn't happen.

you're also not taking into account that the hx transmission is geared ridiculously long for even greater mileage.

How many miles are on your car?
like 225k.
I went to look at the sol and it needs a lot of work, the guy wanted to trade but he even told me that it isn't an even trade as he will get the better deal. But after looking at my first sol omg im it love!! things i like, it has a removable top, i like the power rear back window, and i like how small and sporty it all ready looks!!

some one already emailed me about my add, and is interested in buying it. The thing im thinking about is, like my car is ready to go, when i buy a new car im probably going to have to go through buying tune up things., belts ect. . My car add http://newlondon.craigslist.org/cto/1252302754.html

I think i really want a del-sol than a hatch.

i don't know if i have a good price or if i should go up. the guy was asking $4000 for his sol and it needed a lot of work inside and out missing inside door handles and what not

But in all seriousness.... All that blue in the interior really lowers the value of the car, AC delete for max HP does too of course... Just gotta hope a ricer sees your add and gets all stoked.

Enigma.... I am begging you not to get a del sol or hatch.... lol we are always saying how rare stock[ISH] hatch's and sols are getting and lets face it... you are enigma [giggle giggle]

Well thatd be awesome I guess lol.

Still i suggest cleaning up that interior.... Blue spray paint on the inside of a car makes it look super super ghetto especially when the car has a black and red color scheme and blue interior :P Im just tryna help here for real.... notice no hating in this post....

Stock interior would really help your sale.

it also has aluminum flywheel and pulley, 8mm wires.it also does not have the vx trans it has the d16z6 trans. the vx trans is acually a great trans to have because of the long gears specially if boosted. i know it has 115whp right now .ive had it dyno'd. but anyway my point is its his car and he is free to do anything he wants to his car you may not like it but thats your taste and he has his. just like women some guys love skinny chicks to me thats nasty. i like mine(not fat) there is a line.. but around 130-140 . ^ thats is just an example. some people like jdm some like rice. all im sayin is its his car get off the mans back and let him do what he wants to do with his car.
i like people's cars that are different(there is a line also) something new and creative

You've already told me this before (about the aluminum flywheel and other stuff). I don't know why I forgot. lol

i mean yea i like the jdm look but we are not japenese we are american.and its just that alot of people are after the jdm look and it's kinda getting old. *i wonder to myself if the japs are thrying to make the cars adm(thought of that just now) lol.
i'm not saying that the d15z1 is all that. i know that. ive been into civics for over 12yrs now. just remember from experience the more you mod and upgrade the more it is to maintain and to fix. my opinion is go for looks there really aint no need going for alot of performace unless your takin it to the track. 90% of all of our civics are daily drivers
and we rely on them to get us where we need to be. why not make it more reliable and still look good. but i dont want to start any arguments we all have our own opinions.

If you do it right the first time (modding), maintenance will be fine.

You can DD a Civic with boost just fine.

And yes, some Japs are into the USDM thing.

But actually, I think you don't really understand the JDM thing all that much. The JDM versions of our cars have a lot of extras that the USDM versions lack or subtle appearance changes that make the car look cleaner than the USDM version. That's why people are into "JDM".

But really, the whole calling people out over liking JDM seems to mostly come from ricers who can't find anything bad to call them out about. They claim that it's boring... I guess that a car is boring if you don't have a seizure from the body lines and weird colors on it.
