    Check Yourself

    Should have thrown up a "56-not-o.K." warning

    I wrecked myself:

    Oh, I forgot the best part, the JDM SiR b16a:

    damn nice... would be even better if you ditched that ugly ass muffler

    Glad to see you got a new ride though, a nice one too. Whats in store for the future? going to fix the rust and get it painted or?

    Oh, that muffler is definatly going bye-bye. Forgot to mention that, I am going with an equally rice 4inch angle tiped 5" magnaflow "kitten cannon":here with one of these under the car

    Hopefully in the future I can work out the body blemishes and do yellow and black paint scheme like this (photoshopped by me):

    what rust, the rear wheel wells?
    In the midwest, finding a Honda without that rust is something to awe about.

    Dude you should think about moving the battery to the back it would make the bay look clean and not so cramped. But its looking pretty good.

    Wow! That's a really good price considering it looks like it's in good condition and has a super nice motor swap!

    The dual tip is nice but it's sticking out too far IMO.

    I just installed a 2.25" BUDDY CLUB muffler, looked and sounded great on a 98? civic HB with stock piping.

    the only problems are the rust and the dent on the DS door.

    And if you know a good body man or can do it yourself it will be pretty cheap to fix.
    Which buddy club muffler did you get? Almost all of them I love. Practically anything buddy club makes I love. (everything except their body kits strangely enough )

    I didn't buy it, I install exhaust systems and mufflers for $20 a pop.
    Not sure if it was the Racing spec3 muffler or not.
    Very nice sounding muffler, even better then the Apex'i N1 Turbo I installed.
    But turbo exhaust sound different to begin with.

    Edit: It was a Pro Spec III universal. It came with what looked like an aluminum clamp... so I didn't want to try to weld to it. Instead I used a hose clamp and clamped the muffler clamp to a custom hanger.

    A friend at my school has the Apex'i N1 non-turbo and it honestly sounds like crap to me. It sounds like a freckin' go-cart to me. Like putter-putter-putter. Just my opinion. I love the way they look though.

    my friend has a 97 Civic HX with a b16a and an apex'i catback... it sounds quiet as stock, and looks almost stock but as soon as he hits vtec, its loud as s**t.

    really, the interior was anything but taken care of, one of the previous owners painted any bolt on parts bright yellow. The interior condition is the results of the guy I bought it from and myself. I still need new carpeting, behind the seats is alittle eaten away.

    I believe the paint scheme is called the bumble-bee theme.looks cool though. i saw one of those that looked very similar on that show on Speed channel called Tuner Transformation.

    Nice car, especially the interior. Kill that rust before it gets to far.
