Hard to show off with a halfstock civic

At least I don't spend a paycheck at Autozone buying plastic pieces, lights, wheel covers, and exhaust tips for my car.

meh we all serve the same country when it boils down to it. its like the real world. u got the guys busting as in construction. u got the people who have such a shitty record they have to be a garbage man u got the guys who sit at a desk all day. the competetiveness of the branches will be there always when it boils down to it. but as a whole we make a force that has yet to be defeated.

Well said.

if you're making close to $500/check (guessing this is a weekly check) why havnt you turbo'd the civic?

why? whats so much better about the b18c vs just turboing the ls?

edit:
its still a stock motor even if he did the swap.

I have miscallaneous things on my car

Hubcaps- 25 dollars because I was missing one of the stock ones
Plastic Hood crap- Free because my brother bought them
Exhaust tip- 7 dollars
Lights- 20 dollars

I spent maybe 50-100 dollars, I pull 700+ a week

My paychecks are like 13 dollars, I wait tables mainly, and take whatever I need out of the family bank when I need it
