Its looke a 2005 model to me

A few weeks ago, I actually had this guy at my apartment complex ask me if it was a 2000 model. (not quite 2005) When I said it was a 95` he flipped out!

Roadwarrior, Hondas are very well built indeed. Mine has 246,000 + plus miles on it. AND, it should actually be more, the speedometer and odometer stopped working about 2 months ago. (they work intermittently) Haven`t got around to getting it fixed, too busy waxing it.

Beautiful car! I love those honda leather steering wheel wraps, I have one in my Integra and it makes the wheel much nicer to hold.

I`ve actually been checking online for some headers. On The Honda Civic Forum they all suggest DC Sports ceramic coated headers and they go for like $220. (not bad) I just hope they`re not too loud. If it`s not fast, it shouldn`t be loud. :grinno:

QFT=quoted for truth

I had the DC header on my Accord and I didn`t notice it was any louder than it was with just the aftermarket exhaust. I also noticed the cooling fans no longer ran after I turned the car off since underhood temperatures were a lot lower.

haha, I totally agree, here in Nor Cal everyone that modifies a import does it like the one that someone linked to (on ebay). All show and loudness, no go. lol

Thanks for the confirmation on that header Scottwax. :xyxthumbs

Did you change your valve cover? I detailed this sucker, but it had a weird material for a valve cover. Dressings were just sucked up by it, and wouldn`t make it noticably darker, or cleaner.

**Jake11375** · 11-02-2005, 07:02 AM

Yes I did change the vavle cover. The original was just a plain aluminum cover that I never could get to polish up just right. The one pictured is powder coated and a dream to keep up. Shines up just like exterior paint with no need for scrubbing or anything. The one you have pictured on the blue Civic is a B series head. I think it is some sort of composite material, and yes, it is very porous and sucks up everything like you said. But, it could be powder coated as well, a common tuner modification. You did an excellent job on that BTW. :xyxthumbs

**SpoiledMan** · 11-02-2005, 07:13 AM

Correct on the B series valve cover. I think they have some type of wrinkle paint on them. It usually flakes off. I might have to consider powder coating my valve cover.
