2018 Honda Civic Si

The story

My last car was wrecked out after I was hit by a guy fleeing the police. I immediately went to looking for a new to me car so I went to the Honda dealership in West Allis. I asked the first salesman to bring out the keys to all the manual cars they had on the lot. While browsing and walking the lot, the salesman comes out and keeps the horn on this bad boy, I immediately turn around and fell in love. There was no turning back, she found me! 23k miles on the dash, Certified Pre-Owned, never had a single aftermarket part put on it. The diamond in the rough. I had wheels on order before I even took delivery of it from Fitment Industries and worked with Jake Howard tracking the wheels to be delivered to where I was working at the time. Within the first week of owning the car, I had it lowered on Swift Spec R springs, white Rosenstein CR wheels, Suma Performance switchback marker lights, and Mugen style window vent covers. Joren Devries picked up my car from me and tinted the windows at FX Window Tinting and I left it alone for a year while I learned everything I could about the platform. I brought it to the WCEC show at The Timber Ratllers stadiumin Appleton to show it off to Mark Felten. I wish I had known that the stock head bolts like to stretch and lift the head, making the headgasket the weakest point in the car. I had ARP2000 studs put in the block at Rudz Racing in Illinois and they built a brand new head with Brian Crower titanium valve springs. Everything else on the car, I have installed myself from the intake, turbo inlet, FMIC with hard charge pipes, turbo back exhaust, now on coilovers with adjustable tie rod arms and camber arms, subframe brace and adjustable swaybar links. It will be 4 years owning this vehicle and at this point have moved towards putting my personal touches on the interior. So much has happened in the last 4 years with this vehicle and so many great memories at shows and car events that I do not regret buying this car.
