The OGs' Civics!
I had a thought while making a recommendation to a newbie earlier.. Those new enough to not remember when us older members owned Civics might sometimes wonder how much legitimacy there is in a post made by a "Subaru Guy."
Figured this thread would give us an opportunity to show the long lost Civics that brought us here in the first place.
Here is mine, 1999 Honda Civic EX Coupe.
Kept it fairly stock for a while, doing little things like a cat-back, strut braces, short shifter..
Got new wheels, and eventually suspension
Then, I got bored with being slow, and boosted it
And a short while later, this happened...
Swapped the motor, sold it, and bought my Subaru. Haven't really looked back, but do miss the ol' girl from time to time.

BALLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just for you, Nike <3
And, of course, I'm obligated to post pics of the car after I decided to stop being so friggin' retarded.
Also, for all you whiny little brats that complain about rubbing... if you've never driven a car that's borderline tucking wheel, you have no room to talk:
(Yes, I drove it like that. It's a long story.)

Unfortunately I don't know if I even have any pics left of my purple coupe. If I find them - I'll post them. Here's the blue sedan though:
Unfortunately most pics of this car were lost cause I was stupid enough to keep them in an HCF album and when we switched to new software they were lost. Of course there are no pics of the accident that took this car from me left for same reason. I'm sure some remember it.
This car was picked up with a bad input shaft bearing here on HCF's FS. When the accident happened it had 200K miles on it and it had a little turbo setup I did just a week prior to crashing. It also had a two week old paintjob... ugh... after that I decided to not tune cars anymore and whadya know I only lasted three weeks.
Edit: If you want to ask why a Saab driver is giving civic advice - this car is mostly the reason why Of course the purple coupe too, but more so this one.

How did Gene and Daryl manage to post before you? lol
JDM 3-lug ftw! I actually replaced the stud before I sold the car though. And I kinda miss those wheels... would've been nice to have them for my next car. They look awesome on the yaris though
