  1. I think I lucked into what I need/want. ATI Remote Wonder on Newegg Unfortunately it's sold out. *hot dog, I found one on wolf camera of all places. A little more expensive but they actually have them. ATI Remote Wonder on Wolf Camera
  2. Ok the muffler in my old car was even bigger, just hidden. Also this ain't a fart can. Fart cans sound horrible. My dad didn't like the sound of my old car. He loves the sound of this one. It's quiter, but not much, and much more race car sounding. I have a red grille cause the green one had the actual grille cut out of the green lining and it looked real ricey and I hate that. I'm getting this grille painted. At least I don't have that bright red hatch on yet. I'm getting it painted before it goes on. I planned on taking pictures after work but I gotta take a shower and go some where so i''ll
  3. the laptop. I have a about 5 for the tv's. I need like a wireless USB remote for the laptop or something. do they make em with functions for DivX or Winamp?
  4. I watch anime on my laptop now. I hook it up to my 27" TV (both video and audio) so the lower resolution of the TV won't show the imperfections in a 640x480 video in fullscreen plus the screen is bigger. I would like to try and find a decent remote with basic controls like play/pause, stop, forward, rewind and all that good stuff. Maybe a volume conrol wouldn't be too bad. I don't really know where to look and I just wanted some opinions on some that some of ya'll (if any) have used. Any help would be appreciated and thank you.
  5. *ahem* my bedroom Funny stuff though

    My Project

    Here's the car while we were working on it These are pics after we got done before going to the junkyard. I didn't take pictures after we got done working on it after the junkyard. It has new 99-00 mirrors (same as 96-98) and it has some new interior trim and a few other things. We got the radio and tach working. We found the alarm and pitched it. We found a under body neon control box. No neons though. thank god. We pitched it. We got both the headlights working right. Got the turn signals working right. We'll change the tail lights tomorrow. Turns out the ones we have aren't JDM. They
  7. No 3rd party toolbars for me either. I don't even keep the google search bar that is standard in FF. Mine is as plain as can be. Plus I only use IE for windows update anyway. FF for everything else.
  8. Well my car is really movin along quick. Again when I get pictures I'll open a new thread and post em. We've already got the Integra wheels on. Those old wheels were a pain to get off. about 7 lugs were stuck. Lets just say a can of WD40, a vise grip, and a rubber mallet were involved. We tried to fix the turn signals and the side markers but O' Reily's didn't have side markers and we didn't do something right with the turn signals. We'll get back on it tommorrow morning. After we fix the headlights and corner lights tommorrow, we're going to the junkyard and grabbing a new hatch, mirrors, som
  9. I'll be running the drag racing
  10. Well I just got my hatch today............................Man that sucker is WICKED. Beat up and a lot of interior porblems but with this car I don't care. The exterior is kinda messed up. I got the bumper back on. It's zip tied, kinda like the right corner light on my 95. The right front turn signal is out so the rear one blinks ridiculously fast. I have a grille off a red civic cause the previous owner cut the actual grille part out and all that's left is just the green frame. Lucky me. there's a junk yard with 2 wrecked hatches. just the front ends are hurt while the hatches are fine. one i
  11. aww you just rolled over. I went the extra mile and hit another car. This car has been run off the road 3 times and wrecked but I finished it off with the help of a jeep cherokee. Does yours still run? My front end got smashed and the motor can't run right now. My brother is working hard on getting the motor out and fixing some damage to get it running again. He wants to build it and put it in a CRX or something like that. I may just have to sell it to get some money to work on my new car. It needs a new hatch or for the one it's got to get fixed. My mom and dad should be picking the Hatchback
  12. I'll need a new one for my new car. My 95 got totaled incase you didn't know. I won't be able to have a nice rear shot like the one for the 95 for a while due to the gash in the hatch. I'll also have to wait until I get the front bumper back on. Oh also in case you don't know it's a light green 96 hatchback....... with a B16. Maybe that'll be my sig. the motor. As soon as I get pics, will you make a me a new one? please.
  13. wow wreck after wreck. I hope my new 96 civic hatchback can avoid them at least for another 2 or 3 years
  14. no, actually back when I built my first computer it only cost me $400 to start. I already had a motherboard and case from christmas. Later it wasn't a bad budget system at just under a $1000. All new parts except the sound card and CD drives, which I reused from a previous computer. My current Rig Aspire X-Plorer Mid tower case $50 FSP 450W ATX12V PSU $45.50 EVGA nForce4 SLI x16 $145 AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice, then it wa $110 but it has since dropped majorly. Corsair XMS TwinX 1GB Dual Channel Kit, then about $110 but has since gone up to $132 EVGA e-GeForce 7600GT CO 256MB DDR3 EVGA FAN #1 $
  15. start hunting ebay. I snagged my Sempron 2800+, 512MB, 15" HP for $400. Wasn't even a year old.
  16. Well we're getting the 96 hatch for $3500. The car doesn't have a body kit. It has aftermarket sideskirts and a lip attached to the factory bumper. The lip is broken, one side skirt isn't even on, and the other is just hanging on by a thread. We've ordered new H&R OE Sport Springs to lift it to a decent height and an AEM Short Ram intake to replace the the Cold Air that's in it. My mechanic has 2 different headers I can choose from. A ceramic sport header he had on his old B16A2 (same motor my new Civic has) or a factory B16A2 header. The header that's on it I think is the original D16Y7 h
  17. I've done that. It's funny too. I do a brake check then an accelerator check. I had passed someone one a short 4 lane section after a red light and they didn't like it too much (giant freakin 80's blazer) so when I got stuck behind another vehicle they tailgated me. When that car finally sped up some I did a brake check. Then an accelorator check. They stayed off me after that. I turned off and saw a particular finger but I laughed because they'll think twice about pulling that crap again.
  18. We're negotiating the purchase of the Hatch tommorrow. I can't wait. The only thing I'm gonna miss is power windows. I'm gonna miss cruise control too but I can easily buy and install an after market kit. I never used my power locks much. I mean the dang thing was a 2 door. It was nice havin the sunroof but it got to the point where I quit opening it. If I wanted power windows badly enough I could jack some doors off a 2 door EX. I've got all the audio equipment I need. I'll need to get a new AEM short ram intake for it cause it has some cheap Cold Air in it and the car is way too low for it a
  19. Well.........................I was just informed, that the 96 is . .. ... .... ..... .............. A HATCHBACK
  20. WOW, you gotta know what you're doing to create that. That musta taking some serious planning before hand to do that.
  21. Well the extra cash would be for an Engine swap and maybe some tuning. The motor I mentioned is a 1.6L DOHC VTEC instead of the 1.6L SOHC VTEC the Z6 and Y8 are. I could actually do a lot more with this car than I could mine. My Civic had a ton of dents and scratches plus a few Mechnical problems. I'd have to pay to get a lot fixed before staring on tuning or anything. THis car however looks to be in great shape so I don't have to pay for any of that mess. Also this may not be the car. It's just one we are keeping in mind cause so far it seems to be the best we've found. We are going to Nashvi
  22. well hey, it's the only frickin car in 75 miles from here we can afford. plus honda motors are so easily swappable I can either use my D16Z6 if we can get it working or I can scrape up $2000 over the next while and drop in a B16A2 or A3. We are on a tight, I mean TIGHT budget for this car. The 95 just kinda fell in my lap. I lucked into that one. It just so happend my 85 Sunbird broke and t just so happened my brother was buying a 4Runner for hauling recording equipment and was selling his Civic. I've looked long and hard for 87-98 Civic, 94-97 Integras, 91-98 Accords (which there are actually
  23. I think I may have found my car. 1997 Honda Civic EX Coupe 5-Speed Basically my old car in the next body style in green. Stock. Unlike my APC covered car. I would still jack the muffler off my old Civic and slap it on this one. Hey if we can recover the D16Z6, when the D16Y8 in this bad boy dies I got a spare.
