k well i don't know any of the brands, but:

It's a '99 Civic SI, DOHC-VTEC...

Cold Air Intake.
a Turbo-Ready Exhaust.
I was told it has new throttle bodies, and PCV valve? (I'm not even sure what that is honestly)
Short Shifter.
Coil Over suspension, and it used to be on bags back when 2Fast2Furious was filmed.

Supposedly it's somewhere around 210hp at the wheels...I know it's quick, especially compared to my old car.

I have a set of 18" rims that look similar to Lamborghini rims, but 2 of them need new tires. If anyone is interested, I'm willing to sell them.

I forgot the model numbers/names, but it's Alpine all the way around (head unit & speakers). It's wired for my system that I still have to pull out of my Celica, which is two Pioneer 12"s powered by a Memphis Audio 500 watt Power Reference Series amp. It packed a pretty powerful punch in my old car. I don't listen to much rap, but it had a crisp sound that none of my friends could match.

It has a few neat things about it- diamond plated floors, white faced gauges with blue backlighting, and interior neons. The center controls light up amber, which looks really good with the interior color scheme of the car.

I know I should probably really know more about this car, but I'm new to Honda, and have only had it about 4 days now.

yea it's a neat little car for sure. did you watch for it in the movie? After I talked to the seller the first time I borrowed the movie from one of my friends just to be sure. It's hard to catch, but it's definitely there. Also I have a couple magazines with it, one of which has a 3 page article on the car.

Oh and trust me, I wanted a black SI over anything else. But after I saw/drove this car, it was just too much of a steal considering I spent less that $7000 with only 85k miles. So maybe one day the paint will be changed. For right now I like the looks it gets me at school, work, etc...

Yeah i saw it in the movie, its up on bags then i drops down one side at a time. Pretty cool.
Less than 7000 is a steal wiht a car with that much of work done to it. Good find!
