Well, i took the car out to get some halfway decent pictures.

These are my 2 favorites from the day.

Body work is needed, yes, i know that. Now i'm just waiting to get an ECU... trying to get ahold of this local guy about it....

1) GET IT RUNNING PERFECT! lol.... wrong ECU = shitty driveability

2) Body work -- fender, bumpers and hood

3) Get some stockish alloys of sorts for winter

4) t3/t4 turbo with spearco FMIC, 450cc injectors, MSD ignition, etc etc etc.... but that's a ways away.

mainly just got this car for reliability and the fact that it looks ok. Interior has ONE stain that's hardly noticeable, otherwise it's perfect.

OH, and my sound system is going in it soon.

lol... you know what? the first day I bought the car, I saw a civic, same year, color, and trim level with the EXACT rims on it.

I was pissed. Thiers may have been stock ride height, but i was thinking it was going to be a unique civic.... what a concept.

yeah, they are chrome... i was thinking about possibly having them powdercoated black or something. Or maybe even sanding it all off and then repainting them. Anyone have experience with that?

yeah, it looks like we'll be going to the J/Y to pull some stock alloys off an integra or some other vehivle we find.

Chrome is meh... but probably better to have something that doesn't stand out so much.
