First off, I want to give thanks to my oldther brother Kong, thanks for keeping an eye on me and Houa, and thanks for always having our backs when things got ruff.

MY LATE INTRO:
For those that don't know me, The name is SAI, and I've been a member on this board for a while now, even before I got my car. This is the story of my car. Like a lot of people here, my civic was my first car. a 99 ex coupe. Started "modding" my coupe from when I was still in high school up until now. My car has been through hell and back. I've always been inspired by my Friend's/Cousin's/Brother's cars. Slammed, Clean, and simple. Sadly, I parted out my coupe and put it back to stock and almost sold it to a friend.

This time around, It will be rebuilt from ground up. swap, paint, semi-road course race/auto-x car is where i'm going with this build. NA all the way!

To start off the build, a truck backed up into my front end, so its in the shop for repairs but already, parts is starting to fill up my room.

egay polyurethane mugen lip for trackd ays
si lip for daily use
Hand Polished C10's
Replica mugen valences
more parts on the way.

This is going to be a slow build. SCHOOL > Build -----> I'm broke. You understand.

Current State of my car:

Dont mind the mismatch wheels, the tru ricer in me is finally coming back. lol
also raised up so people at the shop won't have clearance problems.

Already on the car:
OTS Function&Form Type II Coils
GSR Front Brakes/Hawk HP pads/Brembo Drill and slotted rotors (Donated from my bro's teg)
SI rear disc conversion/hawk hp pads/Brembo Drill and slotted rotors
Si rear swap bar setup and beaks lower tie bar.
CTR front strut bar
OEM window visors
GS gray leather seats(daily)
Skunk2 short shifter
Si cluster, soon to be s2k retro
JDMSHIT spoon style mirrors
other?

Current goals:
Better alarm system
get my car back to the old dump status again.
Go Fogless, new bumper, paint si lip and grill, ctr headlights, removable steering wheel.
Ls swap!(donated by KONG! thanks bro)


UPDATE: My brother is working on his s2k cluster conversion for his teg and when he gets it working, I'll put one in my car too. I can't wait. There are already "Units" out there but a lot of people are getting scammed so my brother decided to make one himself and there will be a whole DIY write up on this on what parts to buy, to programming it, and having it installed.

Hopefully its you i'm describing and not someone else

But I like how you riding slammed...must be one hell of a ride

Love the way your car looks
