Motor looks great, nice job! Did you get it from Hmotors? Put it in yourself?

Car might not be my style, but neither are 99% of the Civics I've seen in North Dakota. At least this one is well thought out and put together, which is more than I can say for the majority of the other Hondas up here.

Just want to check out more of it since all you can see is the back end on the tv show.

NO, motor was bought in town from a friend.. it was in real bad shape when i picked it up so i just started ordering as much CTR stuff i could get and had the tranny rebuilt and head bored out to fit the ctr pistons and did some other shit.... the car is %100 done by me with help from my friends was never in a shop yet.

One thing doesnt add up to me though...

You said you had CTR rods...how does that work?:icon_scratch::icon_scratch:

[99civic]

what do you mean how does that work???? you order them to go with the new pistons i guess..... i didnt use the old rods or anything like that. the motor was factory b16a2 so when i took it apart i got ctr items to replace it with

[DelSlow]

They are way longer...if there were CTR rods in it wouldn't it stick out of the block?

[99civic]

ah good point i guess i never realized that. i dont remember they were along the lines the the ctr pistons would fit the new rods or something i guess i didnt read much when i bought them. just took out a loan and started spending. if i would of looked into it more i would have got good pistons and shit for boost.

[DelSlow]

sure it just wan't CTR pistons?

Post up pics of your blue car and of the new paint going on this car.

[99civic]

yeah lol pistons were ctr from the dealership but needed different rods cause piston was thicker then regular b16 one so it needed a skinnyer rod to make it fit. im a retard just to let you know...

i dont want people to make fun of my girly colored paint job. and there is nothing special in the blue car so why post pics lol

[DelSlow]

Im not calling you a liar or anything like that, just the math doesn't add up and I didn't think you could just put them in there.

So maybe I calling you a liar lol
