K20 is another good route especially if you just want to stick with all motor... what year civic do you have?

i see you're up here in NorCal but if you want a referral to some friends in LA that still build motor's i can give you there number. Do It Dyno is the name of the shop.

Problem with those guys is they are HUGE STREET RACING FANATICS

... youtube "sonic racing" or "compton rob"

It's actually a 2000 civic ex coupe. The engine is still the stock D16Y8, it's got power, but I feel that I need another 60+more. Will go out and take a decent pick with my Iphone and post it up.

Thanks for the great support. Even though my old 1994 civic ex sedan ran for 340,000miles. I agree their shit.

A civic with a stage 2 turbo will smoke you...sorry but its true

I think any car with a stage 2 turbo can smoke a 330

Haha bravo, my point exactly (assuming that OP is pretty young, which shows)

SE3P_to_E90 · 05-12-2009, 08:00 PM

say you want to race... let him rev and drive off... ask his girlfriend to get in the car, and go home.

...I really hate that line....I had a blast in my honda's and I would not hesitate to buy an s2k or an other rsx-s. At the end of the day I don't care what other people think. I have more respect for a fast honda than for a fast bmw. Any idiot can walk in a bmw dealership and buy out anything. I spent countless hours tuning my cars(dyno, test,tuning) in order to get them running right. I rented a lot of cargo vans in order to carry parts around. To be honest I had a blast on clubrsx.com and honda-tech so amazing what some guys can do with so little money.

except, i bet when you had ur jap, you didn't go up to a guy in a bimmer and say some bullshit like you had something to prove... There are a ton of nice hondas (or japanese cars for that matter) out there; however, i have no respect for douchebag ricers in their fartcan cambells soup exhausts that come up next to me and rev for no reason.

True, I had fun with ricers back then lol.....
I also had an 04 R6. Got gixxers after(my friend owns a suzuki dealership). My R6 was fun it was modded(velocity stacks, BMC filter, sprockets, 520 chain, Power commander, exhaust, HID). It was a fun bike.
I love your 335. I almost bought one exactly like yours but when I found out about the 1er I had to buy it since I didn't have to slap a BBK conversion and it was a bit lighter(track purpose). I'm a 4 door guy and I'd get an E90 over an E92 anyday of the week. Yours is tastefully modded

ALPINE6SPD · 05-15-2009, 07:44 PM

You will get KILLED. I bet his car runs mid to loe 13's. Dont even bother. Just tell him his car is AWESOME but at the end of the day I drive home with a BMW and you drive home in a Civic. After telling him that he has nothing to say.

He can call you a:

1) Douchebag
2) Tool (probably the most appropriate response)
3) F*g

len56 · 05-17-2009, 10:07 PM

Here, instead of racing, pull infront of the hot popular girls [both of you] and see which car THEY choose XD

No need to race unless they are in the same class. Plus, you can brag how yours was more expensive and ask if they he has dual zone A/C

yeaaa, bikes OWN! As for my car, it's a '06 325. Thanks for your compliments, and I'm honored that my car looks like a 335, and would kill for the n54 engine, but i can't complain because i still love my car. But i'm in your same boat... if the 1er was out when I got my 3, i would've gone your route!

GhostyM · 05-19-2009, 10:10 PM

BS on that story with HKS stage 2.

My civic on the other hand pulls on bikes lol.

1.98 stroked LS/Vtec with an ITR head and built/sleeved bottom B18A1 bottom end.

Even with my D16Y8 I squeak the tires from 1st-2nd.

That's with my 195 tires. Enkei's will be on by end of summer.

Doesnt matter if its a BMWs forum, VTECs tuneds are BEASTS. Dont race. If you bought a 330 to put on races, u did a wrong choice (unless u have money for tunes).

mtla4 · 05-20-2009, 01:00 AM

It's really fun to see that there are a few guys on these bimmer forums who are not badge whores. If I had more garage space I would build an K20A EK and call it a day(midori green FTW)
Chipped B6 I love your setup your manifold is really nice. Far from my friends ghetto setups.(They're all about go)
