Let me know wha'cha'l think of the sound, the 1.9 stock sounds worse then raspy can civics, so it took a custom intake, and exhaust to make it sound "do-able" lol

seems like you're just looking for approval from your peers.

You, a member, posted videos of your car, or in ricer terms, your 'ride'.

I was just saying that you oddly seem to be trying to prove that your car doesnt sound like a civic. Why?

Thanks man, I didnt take it as a bash, it is a 4 cyl engine, it is slow, it should sound like a civic, but I want a good 4 cyl sound, and B series (almost any DOHC) can make nice sounds.

Thats a good observation, and might seem true, but Im just a crack head for posting pics and vids of my car, I like hearing the comments regardless of positive or negative, although, I useto own a SOHC civic, tried to make it sound better, but I found out that with out real mods or power, the sound will suck, then with the Z3, theres really not much to do on my 1.9 to get more juice out of her, other then the exhaust, which I did, and helped with the sound alot, the intake helped with the sound as well.

ok im ranting now, I was making a refrence to civics, cause I know how a raspy nasty one sounds from experience, and I dont want that sound, and I know alot can relate to that sound, so thats why I used it as a example. I dont want to prove it doesnt sound like a crapy civic, I want to see if you guys/gals think it sounds decent, "do-able" as I do. Plus Its hard to capture, sound on cheap cameras, so I wanna try and get different clips.

Fair enough yeah but mehhh I like the sound of my sohc it's far from raspy but it's most likely my set up then, its like somewhat quiet and deep and no fart sounds at all
