Default Hello Civic People

Well here I am to learn about Honda Civics and the people that drive them.

I drive a 99 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP with a few bolt on's. I'm running high 13's now and just purchased rockers for my valve train and plan to install them. (If anyone has a torque wrench I can borrow in the Greenville, SC area I'd appreciate it)

My experience with Civics are minimal, but I'd like to learn about them. I'm a car lover, and I'll respect your car if you respect mine, I'll respect it more if you beat me, and I'll respect it even more if when I beat you you tell me nice race!

Ask me what you will. You'll see me around I'm sure.

Yeah, I've got those rockers I just bought (Should give me at the very least 20 HP and a broader powerband up top-which is what GTP's lack), also a smaller pulley for the supercharger, and last some headers. All that (and a tune) should put me in low - mid-low 13's.

My brother-in-law knew this kid in OH that had a 13.0 civic! I didn't know what that exactly meant when I was told, but now I definitely respect.

Thanks man. I always hate when people are biased to their car like it's the best looking, fastest car around...

I'm here to learn, and I'll impart advice when I can!

Avatar is great. I went to a bar in Charleston and it had this poster of Kramer, and it said, "Chairman of the Board." I was like, "YESSSS!"

As requested, Nothing special on the outside, but under the hood is a different story. [:@]
