I havent been around here much lately so I decided to start a build thread to keep over here. About a month ago I picked up my 07 Galaxy Grey Si sedan. It was bone stock with a little over 130k miles. So far I have only done a few small things but have a few ideas for future mods.

7/9/15 picked up from dealership

First thing I did was give it a full claybar and wax along with removing the dealer sticker and civic rear badging

The stock shift knob and boot were looking a little tired so next was a Carbing shift knob and a new leather boot

Basic plans are to make the car a nice daily. Wheels will come first then probably tint and mugen visors. I will probably do a front lip and new headlights and leave it like that for a while

Ive got one too, its a great daily driver. I also removed the civic badge, then I got some red reverse overlays.

The owner before me painted the Honda emblems and they look like shit.

Nice! I really like this generation of Si. They look really good and seem like they would be fun. I am considering leaving the mustang world until I finish school, and this car is on the list of replacements. Look forward to seeing the progress!

Vtec kicked in yo

You better watch out for vtec bro

Speaking of vtec

Another no too exciting update


The passenger side vtec decal was in rough shape when I got the car, the drivers side was fine but I decided to replace both of them. I got the replacements here: http://sosign.ipage.com/store/product27.html
They match the factory ones perfectly and only took a few days to get here

****in Evo wheels bolt right up?

Hell yeah lol

They bolt up to our cars too iirc. Most of the RPF1s that I found in my area were off evos and s2000s. The hondas had about the same offset, the evo's didn't however.

Taking the 5 spokes off to put 6 spokes on? Whats the advantage? Weight? Width?

Stock Wheels
17x7
~23lbs

Evo Wheels
17x8
~20lbs

They require mag seat lug nuts but other than that they bolted right up

Yep they are all 5x114.3. They are 17x8 +38. There are a lot of people that run cobras, saleens, etc on their 8th gens


Dont have my Nikon but here are some cell pics of them mounted

Good work on the headlights, this car will look great with tint and a nice stance... I can appreciate a good Honda build, my old civic was a fun little car
