Hi Guiz whats going on?
 

hey guys figured i should introduce myself i've been creeping on here for awhile lol

I got tired of the Honda scene, too many young kids and unwanted attention and i found that the civic/integra scene is all about what rims/lip/motor you have.

I wanted a car that is meant to go fast and handle well out of the box not an econo car it didnt make sense to me to buy a civic for 2 k spend another 2k on a motor 1k on suspension etc

anyways enough ranting

i had myself a civic on spray was fun but got old fast

then about 2 months ago i decided i need a drastic change something other than a honda everyone i knew told me not to buy an rx7

went on to kijiji and found a local rx7 for sale I originally knew nothing about Rx7's The reason i went to see it was because it was 5 lug so i could reuse my gram lights (haahahah) i got there the guy popped the hood i couldn't believe how clean it was he told me it had a rebuilt motor, but it needed a master cylinder and a clutch

so then i figured what the hell why not
the outside was extremely dirty when i picked it up it had been parked underground for a few years so the concrete dust made it look horrible.
the first night i brought it back i put the wheel on it right away lol

oh and to make the thread worthy

Who is Guiz?

and what's her name?

Nice car. Very clean. This isn't a flame, but don't count on the clutch disc lasting very long. It was cheap for a reason. Most people get about one year of hard driving before they start disintegrating.

The girl is damn gorgeous.

I can't say much for the lifespan of the ceramic clutches but they are damn amazing while they last.
90mph NA is pretty good.
I think you'll notice that this community has much more creativity in the fact that it isn't as easy to find parts for our cars. if you do an fabrication at all post up what you make people hear enjoy the whole process of our 7's

i wouldn't worry bout it lol

her Name? man you guys are not in the import scene at all

if i get one year out of it ill be happy lol
it was advertised as a kevlar material not ceramic but i dunno lol i just put it in lol

oh and some more of mystery girl! lol

What is it about half euro, half asian girls that just makes them so hot? I need to find me an asian chick so my kids have a chance.

just a word of warning stay away from chinese unless she is a Fob i speak from experience!! lol

flips are usually good girls DTF anytime lol

The "import scene". Just the name alone described why I am not in it. :)

Now now Aaron... play nice! lol

On a side note, that "import" model chick has got a very sultry look.

Goes to show you what the demograph is on the forum nowadays. ;)

O RLY? I couldn't tell you weren't in it.... play nice now

I always play nice...just with necessary sarcasm. :)

It's good to hear a story where someone realizes the error in the Honda wrong wheel drive import BS. Those cars were never intended to be a performance vehicle, and in my eyes they never will be. Welcome to the world of rotaries. You won't regret it.

Intended or not, the excellent suspension of the mid-80's to late 90's Civics means they handle well out of the box, and have loads of potential. I have been beaten by them in autocross - light weight and great geometry can mean go-kart handling, notwithstanding all the ricers who think slamming it 2" off the ground, adding a CAI, body kit, and heavy 17" rims on their B16-powered Civic make it a sports car. Just saying - there's a lot of good in those cars, even if a lot of the "import scene" is more style than substance. Not that I'd trade in my 7 for a Honda (well, maybe an S2K :D ).

in all honesty I left because of the crowd of kids that have these cars, it seems they are all in it because there friend has one.

the front suspension on a 88-2000 honda civic is still way better than on an fc and the rear is a similar set-up like the other guy said its all about the style of owning a honda not many people i know actually track them or have a reason to have coilovers on there car other than being able to slam their cars

so i hope to see car that are function over form and hopefully people that actually track there cars cause i know i will be abusing the hell out of this one! lol

I'm not saying that they can't handle or perform, but you have to sink a fair few dollars into those cars to do so. My car handles like a dream on eibach prokits, poly bushings, and the stock AAS shocks. Not a huge investment, other than having to replace those shocks due to the fact that they were 20+ years old with 250,000kms on them.

This is very true you gotta invest money into a civic before it can perform
