'93 4dr Civic's

[Kool-Aid]

All of those who own 93 four door civics...state what you've done to them...and any ideas of what you might have for the future...

[IALuder]

sell it and get a 2dr.

[Kool-Aid]

Why? Ha ha ha

[pdiggitydogg]

130lb weight difference between the ex 2 and 4dr

dont listen...keep it and represent the 4dr
gee wally...fast ones are swell

[thermal]

It doesnt matter..... you'll smoke these beeches when you get your GReddy turbo.... ha ha

[IALuder]

yup, then ill get mine and ill be smoking you beeches.;)

i got a couple 4drs i can show you that people i know own. but they dont got many mods besides the basics.

[mylittlecivic]

for some reason i thought you had a newer model. this is my favorite body style. I have a 94' but its a coupe. Seen some awesome 4 doors, I like the doors shaved.

[Kool-Aid]

I was thinking about getting my doorhandles shaved...Im really concerned about the security of my car...I am going to keep my 4dr because it's all paid off...and it's my baby...
I can't wait to put that turbo in...
I am starting to get some ideas for the exterior since I've pretty much got the engine all covered...

[sohc_vtec 2NR]

i got a 95 4 door and basically its stock besides the cheap-o ebay intake that i'm gonna get for it, i wanted it to purr while i'm drivin' her.. :yes:

as far as the future goes, it might have a B series swap...whenever the D15 blows up.. ;)

[Kool-Aid]

Yea...koo....sounds like a plan...I dmon't think I'll do any swapping anytime soon...

[-.NsaNiTi.-]

I have a stage 2 revhard on the way. but if your not swapping then basically reinforce the lower block. New rods, pistons need resleeved, Id def. go with some new cams.

If you are swapping you should consider a b18c1 (GSR) block with the B16 (LS) head with nice rods, pistons, and cams.

I dunno, I will have some pics up later. I dont know if you mean ext. mods either.

LMK what exactly you are looking for.

-N-

[pdiggitydogg]

wow almost all of that post is wrong...

why would you need to build if NOT swapping?
D's hold boost fine...at least until you start going into lots of psi or a large turbo.
Cams would be the last thing on the list...once ALL options are gone.

A b16 head is a b16 head. An LS head is a b18b
And if swapping, why change to a b16 head on a b18 gsr block? The gsr head has higher compression. You could say for better flow -> poor man's type r...but a stock head is nothing w/o the porting and valvetrain componants.

[-.NsaNiTi.-]

rawr.. lol Im a little out of it tonight.. my bad.

like I said about building the D.. Im not sure what turbo she is planing to run. Generally 7psi with a small greddy (guess) would be fine on a D as long as it isnt super high miliage.

Also note how I said cams last ;)

Dont mind me.. like I said.. tonight is not my night :P

[Kool-Aid]

So should you swap if you go turbo though?

[pdiggitydogg]

no, it doesnt matter

you should check out www.turbod16.com for a whole site devoted to boosted D's

[esthirteen]

good site and good shit. helped with turbo install done in my garage. :yes:

[Kool-Aid]

Ok...since Ive been back...I've installed...the B&M short shifter, The DC Sport exhaust, tomorrow I will have the Koni yellows and eibach lowering springs installed...and some monir maintenance parts replaced...

[95DX]

I don't know if your interested but as far as body mods here what one of my step brothers car looks like (94 4Dr) http://www.teamshowcase.com/gallery/Extreme-Autofest-Vegas/DD

[Kool-Aid]

OOOhhh my goodness...I love the car...I think Im in love...:love: :crazy:

[Kool-Aid]

Ok...back in my right mind...I got the Koni's and Eibachs installed...it's lowered and rides very nice...LOVE IT...

[IALuder]

ummm....its not good with out pictures...;)

[Kool-Aid]

It still looks shitty though....I refuse to get a paint job until I get better performance...you still wanna see it even though it looks shitty???

[95DX]

I have a few other pics of my stepbrothers car (first kit though and interior shots his interior is the same but he now has a diff. kit and better paint job) if you wanna see let me know and yes show your car when I get around to getting some batteries I'll get around to taking pics of mine and posting them (mine is nothing special)

[Kool-Aid]

Im tellin you guys...my car is nothing to look at right now...but ok...when I get some time...I shall take some picturesand show you my baby...

[95DX]

ha ha ha... not this beech...he he ;)

[Kool-Aid]

Uh-oh...I smell competition!!!!!!

[95DX]

got pics of my car up if would want to see it http://community.webshots.com/user/civic4dr sorry about the bluryness when I get around to taking more pics and if there better then Ill change em

[Kool-Aid]

Yea, I have the same exact car as you do but mine is black...and the two fenders and my bumper are primered...I don't want to get it painted or get rims yet because I might wanna do some thangs to the engine...maybe even get a swap...Im not certain yet...but I am leaning more towards an engine swap...nice pics by the way.

[95DX]

I went rims before drop since I didn't want to be too low while saving for rims. once I get suspension done I'll start deciding what else Im doing engine wise (have intake now), Im concidering swap too but we'll see once my suspension is fully taken care of

btw I have better (not blury) pics up

[Kool-Aid]

Yea, I just got done taking care of the suspension with a little more to do with it...I don't have intake...I want to go turbo...so I didn't even invest in intake...I just have a catback exhaust, I did a lot of maintenance under the hood...I installed a B&M short shifter...I also bought some parts related to the turbo kit that I wanna get and all I need is the turbo kit and the intercooler...
But I think I would feel better if I got an engine swap before I install the turbo...

not this Beech either!;)

[pdiggitydogg]

Glad to hear things are gettin done kool-aid.
Just a tip:
If that shifter starts to rattle a lot, just get some nylon washers and place them on either sides of the ball, between the linkage forks. I did that when I had that shifter and it cleared up the problem.

[IALuder]

man. thermal someday buddy you and me. well see whats up!

tengoku how dare you steal my motor and put it a lighter car. i will do some weight reduction and light a fire under your ass also!

[pdiggitydogg]

better remove about all your panels, actual bumper, ac, ps, windows and battery ;)

[IALuder]

you forgot back seat spare tire and carpet.

[pdiggitydogg]

whoops
dont forget the dash and the unneeded wiring

Ok...I will keep that in mind...any reason why it would start rattling in the first place? I remember you saying that B&M wasn't your favorite brand, I think...

[pdiggitydogg]

Im not sure why it really happens..but its common w/ b&m.
The reason why I didnt like it so much was that it put the knob pretty far away and the rattling thing wasnt a turn-on. The shifts were VERY short though. Its a good knob...but there are some compromises that you gotta make...true w/ everything though right?

thats were i started to think pervertedly and things got very confusing...;) :|

[Kool-Aid]

ha ha ha...you are crazy...;)

Well, so far, I've only had the short shifter for about a good 3 weeks and it's doing fine...I've been lookin at re-doing my front head of my car...maybe drift away from the turbo for a while...
