Well, I haven't posted on here in a while. I've been taking a break from tinkering with Honda's. I actually got rid of my first one I got and wound up getting a JDM ITR front clipped GSR Integra(which learned to hate). I didn't feel the need to do anything but drive it.

Here is a picture of my old sedan





While, I'm still driving the Integra now, I purchased a '97 Civic shell and have been getting it ready to drive these past few weeks.

Onto the pictures.








I loved on the bay a little bit. slight tuck and cleaning. I am keeping emissions, power steering, and a/c so I'm not going for the full tucked look. I will still drive this car EVERY day.






Some of the goodies I've gotten to go along with the car.





The engine I'm going with

1.9L JDM b16a, GSR head, B16 trans.










The harness my buddy built for my car to "accent" the tucked look.















More updates to come soon, as I should have the car up and running in a week or two.

My to do list:

Coilovers
Wheels
install my em1 front seats
install my bolt boys engine bay and rear LCA kits
install my asr subframe brace, omni LCAs, and front and rear camber kits.
