Popular Post GreenZJ Posted August 23, 2009 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Hey guys. i am new to imports and am looking to learn alot and get into the culture. I am a Jeep guy who has converted due to gas mileage reasons. I just bought SI and I love it! It is a 2007 SI sedan with 12k miles. NHBP in color. It is in immaculate condition and even smells new still. here are a list of mods and a few pics! Ill throw up a couple pics of my old Jeep I just sold for anyone interested. It was a 1998 Jeep grand Cherokee 5.9L Limited. 5" lift, 33" KM2s -taillight tint -debadged -HFP suspension -progressive rear swaybar -redshift rear swaybar end link support plates -mugen quichshift shifter (factory mugen part only obtained with mugen vin#) -monster shift knob -all weather mats -Skunk2 race header with extreme sterling jet-hott coating -skunk2 70mm cat-back exhaust -hybrid racing cable bushings -spc rear camber arms -spc front camber bolts My plans for the car include the following: -adding a second resonator and a cat to the exhaust to quiet it down and fix the CEL that is being thrown -20% window tint all around -HFP lip kit -18in HFP Rims -powdercoating the stock rims black for winter wheels -Black "H" badges front and rear -reapplying all the stock badges(civic,Si, and I-VTEC) - either looking for a black civic badge for the rear or having the stock chrome one powdercoated black. -maybe dress up the engine a little. -remove the Boomba racing motor mounts because they cause mad vibrations inside http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/0816091247.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/0816091345b.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/0816091345c.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/0816091346.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/0816091346a.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/0816091347.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/0816091349.jpg http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff2/bluerodeo4x4/Civic%20trip/081609141101.jpg 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenZJ Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 I didn't know floor mats and spray tint were considered "mods" Hey give me a break, those were both things that were done before I bought the car. lol. to be honest I just copy and pasted my intro on an 8th gen civic forum And the tint isnt spray on, its a cling on type thing. like a window cling ill post up a list of future mods im planning here in a few 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Slap a snail or snout on there and we'll have fun. +rep for the Jeep. I like Si's but they need boosted to really be fun; although they are fun in the curves. Edit....does need tint too. See Dyno Brian and get it measured and tinted all in the same day. Welcome.

Guest tbutera2112 Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 i like it debadged...dont ruin it by putting badges all over it...people should know what kind of car you are driving without having to read it 4 or 5 times all over the car i read 07 civic si and i was like i opened thread and saw that your car has 2 more doors than its supposed to have and i was like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 nice si and jeep. as for your badges if you want to remove the crome from the soak them in bleach for a week or 2 it will eat the chrome off them. then prime and paint the badges. Oh and the hood vents on the jeep what are then from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Skinner those were stock. In 98 they released the 5.9 Limited. It was only available in three colors(stone white, a metallic graphite black and his color.) Distinguished by the hood louvers, grill inserts, badging and exhaust tip and wheels. They were quite tittays. Until the SRT-8 came around it was the fastest Jeep ever built (ok thats not saying much) Only about 15,000 were made Oh and BTW nice fuckin jeep, where was I when you were selling it???

GreenZJ Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Thanks for all the warm welcoming guys IMO the 4 door is way sexier than the 2 door. the two door just seems like somthing is missing, and the rear end is ugly. I plan on tinting the windows very soon as I hate cars without tint. If I boost it, it will be in the future once the car is paid off. The list of mods I have are all relativly cheap and easy mods. im trying to get it paid off as fast as possible. I only owe 8k on it Oh and all the love for the Jeep is awesome I miss it very badly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know, I cant find whp numbers for this thing. And to the comment about the Jeep being 1000x nicer than the civic, i know this, but going through $200 bucks a week in gas driving that Jeep wasnt fun. i can deal with the civic for its mixed 30mpg Im getting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
