About My Car
Here are some pictures of my 96 Civic EX Coupe. I think I finally got it running right. I took out the LS swap that I was going to turbo, and put in an LS/Vtec. I will get some more pictures up when I get the engine dressed and cleaned up a little.
These are the brightest headlights I have ever had. When I was driving to get my engine swapped I had semi-trucks flashing their headlights at me when all I had on were my lows. The trucks were about 30 feet across the median, in the oncoming lane.
Here you can see my 17" Enkei RS-6s with 205/40/17 Yokohama Parada Spec-2s. I have KYB AGX shocks with Ground Control style adjustable coilovers. I have a pretty good drop, not sure how much though. That is also 15% window tint.
So far I am the only person I have seen with these tails. I just took these off and put my OEs back on. For some reason I am just feeling the stock tails right now.
Here is my Pioneer DEH-P8400MP. I moved it down behind the shifter so that it is not as easily seen. I have my factory radio in its original spot since I need to keep it for my keyless entry system. I am selling this head unit, if you are interested send me an e-mail.
Here are the Pioneer IMPP 12" subs and my 2 Alpine MRV-T500 amps that I just had stolen. There is also a PowerAcoustik 820w amp that is attached to the box. I have Pioneer 2-way 6x9s in the back, and Rockford Fosgate 2-way 5 1/4s in the front. I also have my tweeters hooked to the same amp as the Rockfords. I have a JL 12w7 subwoofer to replace the 2 12s, and will probably run it with a JL 1000-1 amp. I will replace the 2 Alpine amps with a JL 300-4.
