With the Crower Stage 1, the engine idles and redlines according to the stock specs, there's no rough idle, power gains are significant, found it worth the buck.

Surprisingly enough, the gas consumption actually improved, I drive with a light foot so I get around 12-13km/l in city compared to the previous 10km/l that I was getting with the stock Camshaft.

Oh man I really don't know how I missed this thread.
This Civic is my favourite and you have kept it in a top notch conditon,hats off to you!!
What you use for detailing?Mind sharing your collection?

Bro you really didn't need a valvetrain upgrade for just Stage 1 cams.

[rohaansaeed]

Very true, but one of my friends had them spare and was kind enough to give them to me so I thought why not give it a shot

Installed them but took them off a while later, as they weren't needed, stock valve springs with Stage 1 cam is the current setup

[vyrus]

yeah bro sell em. You don't need until Stage 2. BTW even stage 1 on D series gives alotta performance gain for Daily Driver! Experienced this myself on a friends D :). Just get a VAFC now

[rohaansaeed]

Won't sell them, will just keep them in the store

[vyrus]

good. dont forget vafc, it's important!

[rohaansaeed]

It's not really required right now, but yes will get it soon when I'll go for suitable upgrades, right now the setup is running absolutely fine MashAllah, got a few cosmetic upgrades coming up by the end of this week

Here's a little something for Autocross fans and participants

[rohaansaeed]

I've been busy lately, but thank God my Fridays are off so I woke up early and started working on the OEM USDM Coupe Grill I bought which had been lying around since a while, couldn't take detailed pictures during the installation as I didn't have any help with me

But oh well I'm sharing the one's I managed capturing

To remove/install the grill, you need to take off the whole bumper, if anybody needs directions for that, let me know, I'll take some pictures and make a little guide

Here they are

Beauty ain't it?

After an hour of work

[Born2Race]

Looks really good, MashAllah. You should go for the red honda emblem on the grille, bro.

Haha, lot of people suggested me the same, but again, the car is pretty much stock on the exterior so installing the CTR emblems would be kind of wannabe-ish

That's why got the Genuine Honda emblem, costed a lot but worth it

@rohaan yar usdm varients have no chrome strip over the bonnet,that looks cool too,i once took mine 7th gen's off,it looked great,gave a camry camry look at first glance but the only problem was the holes for the fitting of that strip:(

I think the chrome strip looks pretty neat, even some of the USDM Honda Tech members love the Chrome strip and crave for it

So it stays, and yeah the Holes will remain there if you take it off

@Rohaan can you mention any rough figure of power gain with cams??

Easy gains of around 15hp, but to utilize the cam to it's full potential, I'll be getting a K-pro soon

[rohaansaeed]

[immad100]

^^^pm me the brand+price of the cams please:)
