So i was at my local mechanic who is a a** by the way but he was telling me his younger nephew just graduated high school and for his grad present he was given a brand new 06 civic si. I mean sweet for him but im jealous no one bought me crap for grad. Anywho the kid quickly went out and got a cold air intake installed. Apparently he said his nephew got into need for speed a lot (so did i but besides the point). Anyway with 2,000 miles on the car the cold air sucked up pieces of plastic and threw it into the engine killing the car. Of course this goes against the warranty and this kid is out of his brand new car. OUCH!

Hahaha, good for that dumbass!

I know someone who got a brand new civic Si for getting As during his junior year...yeah, someone has too much money. For what those cost i would rather get a WRX or something.

Funny thing is, he talked trash about a kid's ****ty car. He said it was old, broken down and couldn't keep up with his Umm...yeah, it was a cam'ed talon TSi with a 16G. A proper spanking was served up shortly thereafter.

He also decided to ride my ass coming home from sports practice (this was like 2 years ago) so I decided to step on it a bit. The roads were twisty, gravely, and he didn't have AWD. That was fun.

someones car end up goin boom boom?

Renegade_ · 07-03-2006, 07:45 PM

Nope, he just doesn't know how to drive and couldn't keep up for ****, I was having fun because awd on dirt roads = schwing. He also had to get a new clutch after like 5k miles. Dumbass.

james_ls · 07-03-2006, 08:47 PM

Maybe the front plastic wheel well was shredded from gravel at high speeds which were sucked up into the manifold.

how did he not remember to put the air filter on? or put it on loose and it fell off?

GLHWCU · 07-03-2006, 10:56 PM
