[scarhead92]

I'm fixing the piston rings that have been my issue since I first got the car.

Decided to go ahead and take the head off and leave everything else in and just do it that way.

looking good i dig the milano red. i went with a black em since I've done red and blue but your car makes the red look good.

I want to go champ white someday though

 

[donovan772]

Pistons came out tonight. Now it's time to put all the new parts on and put it back together (:

i hope your rebuilding replacing a good bit of the stuff while its torn apart unless its already been done.

 

[donovan772]

Yeah, a good bit of stuff is being replaced. Though, a lot of it was already done a couple of years ago.

Great thread man. That cylinder head has some charring. Give it a good cleaning!
Your car is mega clean. I was about to buy an EM1, but decided on a DC5 instead. This almost makes me want to change my mind!

Also, your car to this day is the only civic that comes up under Google images, for "Civic Si ATS cups".

glad to hear you are replacing it man its jjust so much easier when its already in this state

Yeah it did!! Cleaned it up nice. I love DC5'. My cousin had an 06 Type S, white. I f**king miss that car.
Lol. I love the Cups for that fact as well. I intend on expanding my ATS collection in the future.

Changed oil for second stage of break in yesterday and ordered some goodies last night

 

[donovan772]

Done a few things recently. Si lip got tore off and I replaced it with a Fit lip, put on some bumper releases, and installed my K Tuned B/d series shifter.

looks great how do you like the shifter

 

[taluzer45]

VERY clean man! It makes me miss my Milano red Hatch...

 

[datbumper]

Just read through all 15 pages. Sick car overall! I was like the rest of the guys on here about the ATS Cups at first... didn't really like them. Now, I can't get over them LOL. They do look like some nice, deep-dish steelies, but in a good way haha. FINALLY picking up my EM1 Sunday for 3500, clean title

Subbed btw.
