It's no LNF, but this is about as decent as you can make these cars look, I figure...











Powertrain sucks but it will hold me over till I can get an LNF... but I need to wait for my insurance to come down from $5,700/yr

 

Hey look a civic!

 

nice pics and it looks very clean. Honestly it looks like a newer model SI with much nicer looking body kit.

 

I like it!
2.4 6 speed manual?

 

Yeah it doesn't help that the spoiler I got is pretty close to the Civic. Oh well. Just needs to get my ass to school and back.

2.0L n/a, about 155 hp, 6 spd manual. Higher level is the 2.4 with 6 spd, about 172 hp.

Also just found this pic of my first balt, can't remember if it's posted on this forum or not.

 

I hate those cars, but I like what you did with it. Nice looking

 

My girl has the 2.0 in hers as well... It handles nicely, but god is it a snorlax in a straight line. Gets great MPG's though!

 

used to like 'em, now more of less annoyed by them lol. Yours looks pretty, legit/tight though . I test drove a 2.4 6speed awhile back, I did enjoy it, lacked power but nice cars.

 

Just a ran a 17.1 @ 82 on Friday! That was my first time at the track though, it's probably capable of 16.5 or better. But yeah, that sums it up.

 

Looks nice. Sometimes it's hard to tell the Koup from a Civic from a far distance.

 

Why did u downgrade? U had an lsj right?

 

Blah! HATE forte's!!! your cobalt was gorgeous, why did you get rid of the cobalt?

 

5,700 a year?! what are you 16 and on some wack ass insurance?! Thats crazy.

 

he must have liked bumper cars too much as a child.

 

lol, bumper cars wtf? 18 things fixed under warranty on that lemon of a balt and it was about to run out... wasn't really fun only having my car 2 weeks out of the month.

 

i like the wing on ur car. all the nice fortes ive seen have a huge wing

 

hey Acey look up a company called Concept III performance in brea california. they do tons of stuff for KDM cars.

 

Staying stock except for an intake. Not keeping this long term.

 

Holy *hit you pay alot. I like the forte's though, to bad the kids around here think there the fastest thing ever.

 

Dunno if it's how they're tuned or what, but both the 2.0 and 2.4 have this lag when going wot into 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. It's like ruthless turbo lag, but there's of course no turbo.

 

I know what you mean.... It takes like 2 seconds for it to actually kick in. So annoying when you're trying to pass someone then you realize it's too late because my car didnt go when it was supposed to... :/

 

Power enrichment maybe? Like on the 2.2? Felt like a different car without it.

 

It's different than the fuel enrichment... that was nothing compared to this. Feels like the TB takes 2 secs to open. Like it wants you to think about do i really need to use more gas. lol

 

Looks very clean but I could never buy another slow car lol
