    Never seen that color before. Is it a goldish green? And I love it by the way!

    It would be like if a lemon screwed a lime.

    That's different. Always loved that body style. Ditch the wheels though. Why is it on a trailer? Looks like its still a Washington car.
    If you don't mind me asking, what did you end up getting for your wrx?
  • shinobishinobi Band Wagon
    I like it ... on my hot dog. lol :) It's unique, I'll give you that much

    love it!!

    did it come painted that color??? OEM???
  • turbo_tegturbo_teg Council Member
    yep Bill inca pearl or euro yellow to some folks. only came on the si in 02 and the EX coupes in 01 i believe.

    As for why its on a dolly its got a nasty noise coming from the head but lucky me a guy in yakima has a head and an entire a3 for sale so no matter what ill be able to get what i need rather quick to make it run.

    I hooked my buddy up with the wrx for $5000 he and I give eachother shit all the time so I didnt mind taking it in the rear besides i kept my wideband, snow tires, and hes got some slicks that im sure he will give me if i ask him. hes taking the BOV,DP, and some other tid bits off for his 04 sti and making the old wagon his womans car she loves it.

    Well I found out whag the noise was.... Ive seen this before but thankfully the k series motors have removable upper and lower cam caps. Im thinking I can get a head and rob the cams and caps and be fine.

    I plan on making this my STF autoX car and engine swaps are a big no no in that class. I can pretty much do I/H/E and tune performance wise.

    found the culprit dam fram filters GARBAGE

    ah.. another thing i would recommend are the rdx injectors, they have a finer spray pattern and allow for a few extra hidden hp numbers.
  • turbo_tegturbo_teg Council Member
    haha i cant touch the fuel system in my class either.

    Mark my words, in 10 years it'll be the new YR-88, someone will do a sick build and then people will be flocking to them.
  • turbo_tegturbo_teg Council Member
    Haha Charb u would so meet up at my place again and ride to a wagon meet in seattle again stfu.

    Yes Kyler in stf I can kpro the car but ill prolly just do a reflash since the mods will be pretty basic. Should be around 185-190whp.
  • CharbCharb Administrator
    Won't lie, I'm actually thinking about getting a hatch like this.

    I'm moving back to Arizona at summer's end... gonna need some A/C. I almost traded my blue EM1 for a white Si hatch when they were new. I just liked my Em1 a lot more. I really just want a stock one to fart around in so I can keep my wagon.

    Nice ride. I like the color. A friend has one he bought new.
    I have an '02 EP, mine's black. You may want to check out ephatch.com. Lots of help there.
  • turbo_tegturbo_teg Council Member
    Thanx, already on ephatch and clupep3 as well. Of course neither compare to civicwagon.com but they work.

    While waiting for my headgasket I put my new Tein S-techs in which brought the car down about 1.5 inches. I realy want to buy new wheels but i cant find the logic in buying wheels for a car that doesnt run yet. So i can wait. Im diggin billboards hfp's but i bet thats some coin.

    not really. pretty cheap. got them shipped to my house for 500... not bad....

    Did they make a HFP wheel for the Si Civic? or what were the original Si wheels???

    put those rims on Craigslist and get rid of them... i think that car color needs some white shoes.... I reallly realllly like the Rota R specs... look so good.... but they are like 700...

    they were my other wheel choice, and i like the size 16x7- perfect....

    with these center caps.

    Ive been thinkin dark wheels but in the back on my mind the idea of white wheels comes and goes. Realy $500 man thats not bad at all. The factory wheels are kinda lame and only 15's. I feel like this car is gunna need atleast 16's to look filled out. The guy I bought the engine parts from has a set of okay looking 17 inch wheels that could get me by. Ive got just the wheels on craigslist ive gotten a few nibbles but of course no one has money they just want to trade guitars, car audio crap, and jordan shoes. In the mean while ive got a boosted integra to rock while my buddy is gone.
