So the story starts with a 2009 civic, nothing special just a ex-l coupe with honda's lousy single slammer 1.8 r series.

first stupid mod greddy rs exhaust

wanna be track set up, 275/45/17


I never had any clue what I was going to do or go for with the car, at first I wanted a track car but that dream fell quickly especially after blowing $7k on a new built up 2.0L bottom end, the stock block did not even have 5k on it before i scraped it and put the r20 bottom end on. My new bottom end consisted of eagle sleeves and rods and cp pistons all needed to not even gain 30 extra hp....
I should have got an si...

Later down the road find out tune is crap car over heats installed gauges to monitor wether car is going to explode at this red light or the next

at this time its May 2012 I find some used xxr's 962's for sale 17x9 +35 and literally do not touch these for the next entire year... did I mention... 2 are gold 2 are grey lol



their resting place for the year of 2012 and most of 2013
plasti dip them so they all match

bought godspeed coils....new....for............$340...I have had no problem with them

civic owner in me makes me plasti dip my stockies black
and I thought this was slammed at the time LOL


second of many smyth photos

also got a whale tail.
then i realized how low I could go on stock wheels

then grew up a little and took off the plasti dip

My interior nothing special

finally decide to get tires, tire rack Fuzion zri 205/40/17 $42 a tire

some how fit all of them in my coupe

stretch 205/40 on a 17x9


put them on for a test fit and....

wheel gap for days
camber all messed up +1 in the front -4 in the back


at least the rears fit nice

and finally after a hair adjusting this is maxed out all around

first time revealing the car at cars and coffee, wheel gap was bad
very bad

finally get adjust it a bit more in the front to go maybe a bit lower and then took some photos




time passes
go to a euro meet at redline in Cockeysville Md
end up being the center of attention and declared lowest static

find out after a little adjusting I can hit a new max and literally the max of the coil it self

June 2013 Head down to Ocean city for fresh meet and oc car show


take some photos down there by the board walk

stance|twerks

and finally my favorite shot to date

and another smyth photo

best photo to show progression of my build

exo mounts and tank arrived today

most recent photo with the camber fixed in the front
