Not even a NEWB yet but hope to be Hey all my name is Dana I live in the dinky town of brownsville oregon. Anyways in short looking to meet alot of neat people. I do not own a LS car yet but I am hoping to be tomorrow, I am looking at trading my 98 civic with a GSR swap off on a 98 Camaro SS tomorrow. I am driving all the way to seattle for it. Anyways even if that does not workout I will still have my 79 camaro which will soon be an LS car. Anyways here are the pictures:
The civic ( i know this is for V8's but have to show how I am gettting myself one first LOL)
And my 79'
Thats when I bought it. Its totally stripped down now, I am currently in the process of putting a 4th gen interior in it and will also be putting a LS motor into it.
Anyways since I am leaving in like 8 hours anyone want to give me any pointers of what to look for on the 98 ss? known problems or anything?

Not to be a dick cause i dont like turboed civics but i have a civic at home in MD that will walk you and i mean give you 5 cars and run you down by second gear and you can leave on a sticky tire. hes turning 11.3 with 1.6-1.7 60s guys a damn good driver and a nicely setup car. a a tiburon and civic that would embarrass most cars on here in the corners. my 3rd gen when i had the entire rear suspension an a handful of goodies up front couldnt touch them. ANYYYYYWHO
OP- Good looking civic. its not all riced out. and the camaro way to keep the old school going!!! and you cant complain with a 98 SS

I've seen a crx run 10 seconds flat after 10k dollars spent on a b18 swap. Who gives a **** what the car runs after HUGE modifications. Its still a civic and its still worth nothing.
The truth hurts I know.

Get off this board, with posts like that you nobody will like you here.
There are plenty of people in the world that will say, yes you might run 12s, but you are still in a POS 4th gen..
You sound like a total tool.
OP--- GOOD TRADE!
