Updates of my new EJ1...mini build thread.

[93LShatchy]

My 95 DX coupe was crashed and totalled, so I bought this 94 EX for $400 with a knocking z6. That lasted a day, lol. So I swapped my b16 from the crash coupe to the new one, and these are the results...

Crashed EJ2..

[TopGear_]

can't wait to see it lowered. picked up a good deal:thumbup:

[AlexM]

I don't like the new valve cover, too flashy for me. With the yellow battery and red air filter, it's too busy. Body looks mint after you fixed it up. Can't wait to see it slammed:thumbs up

[Genuine Rolla]

Rhode Island..:thumbup:

Where abouts are you at..?

We should get some nightly meets going. :thumbs up

[93LShatchy]

^^You know me, Im the one who traded Ant my green coupe for his primer coupe.

[VTEC_Civic97]

[vid_man]

[Ian123]

[matttitaly8]

Dude amazing transformation all ready anazing what a quick wash and wax will do.

[253eg]

need a huge drop, like 3" or so. Maybe more.

[Destroy]

Don't mod the exterior. It has potential to be a decent sleeper.

[s_crowley 17]
