Here are some images I took during the lunch break:

As you can see no mods yet.

Hi mine is '01 got a good bargain for it by trading in my '98 1.4iS, but in my opinion this one drives better, the 1.4 had better grip because it was lowered and had great tires but it didn't pass the last official ground clearance test because it was 0.4 inch or 1 centimeter to low [:@] but that isn't my problem anymore.
What do you plan doing to yours, probably a hole lot more than is allowed in Belgium

Hi, mine is a ES, in europe they only sold a LS and an ES version (stick and automatic). Mine is a stick, 125bhp. Next week I'm going to get a pipercross viper kit I'll post some images of it when it's installed.

7 secs. is currently the world record for Civics that are n/a. That's going to take a LOT of effort and just any intake and exhaust won't do. That's a full ported and polished head, rebored block, 11 : 1 compression, Stronger retaining springs and valves, full racing header with no catalic converter blockage running through the exhaust.... WOW... so much more. that's going to be truely a task. Keep me posted.

Hi sorry if this seems a stupid question, but what do you mean with: "... civics that are n/a"
I would also like to add that I don't want to get 7 seconds on the 1/4, I would like to get to 7 secs on 0-60. This should be possible or not?

yes, it should be pretty easy... intake, exhaust, and weight reduction.( depending on how serious you are about it and what you use it for) if your going for straight speed, just strip it out. (all the plastic and rear seat)

Next week I'm getting the intake, I'll post some pictures of it when it's done. For an exhaust I'm thinking about a super sprint, front to back, but I first need to double check if it's legit here in Belgium. I'm also planning to buy some enkei rims but I'm still looking for a good dealer nearby.
