what up. new here. 99cx hb

sold my modded 01 BMW 325i a few weeks ago, and took the guys 99 Civic CX HB as I need a car for the winter.

First Impressions. Not a bad car and I'm very pleased that it doesn't shake at all cruising between 120 - 145kms on the hwy, although the lack of power steering is very noticable, and the missing 100+ hp leaves me wanting more.

Although it is going to be my winter mobile, I can't seem to just drive a 100% stock vehicle.

It already has an Intake and I picked up some AIRMASS ceramic coated 4-2-1 headers for it yesterday. I'm gonna be looking for a Cat Back come the new year, and I'd like to give it a slight drop with either H&R or Ebiach Springs. Looking for something between 1.2" - 1.8" all round.

Seems like a solid forum. Looking forward to some interesting reads, and learning more about these cars.

gf's in windsor, so I put 75,000+kms on the BMW in 2 years, and at that rate, I was gonna take a hit. It's at average 100,000kms right now so it was opportune time to sell.

It had:
- Sport Package
- M bumpers all round / lip/ mirrors,
- 20% tint,
- H&R lowering springs,
- short shifter,
- CAI,
- Shark Chip,
- OEM Clears,
- Brullen Exhaust Cat Back..


I have a 77 Austin Mini that I haven't really drivin since I got the BMW so I figure I'll get a reliable car for the winter that I can put as many kms as I want onto, and then drive my Mini and motorbike in the summer.


Thanks for the welcome. j
