Overview:
1998 Civic LX got it for free from a good friend. Had an Integra DB7 that had some unfortunate wiring issues I stripped it. Using swap and whatever else that fit I put together an autocross rig that got 3rd place in 2014 Class I with Boston BMWCCA. On Nov. 2016 did my first track event, car was perfectly setup, no issues at all, but room for improvement.


The Project:
2013






2014



2015




2016
Autocross Staggered

Track Squared

Plans for it?
Something I can autocross/road race, but show off worthy. A few tasteful exterior mods, simple engine set-up, and all suspension needs.

Paint
Wheels
Suspension
Motor

I have a lot of parts already for this but wont introduce until they are on the car.

Free hood bra, bro hook up. Bought t braket, also ordered new shifter, spark plug cover, fancy t bolt clamps for coolant hoses and rear 2 piece lip. Looking for a donor car with the same color but might have to settle.



My boy Bori's hatch going to paint early in the morn.

Worked 11pm-7am and went to start the stripping process. Ordered Hastings fuel filter and Supertech valve guides and seals. Rebuilding head slightly, hopefully that stops the oil consumptions plus my leaky vtec and cam seals dont help.
