well. i did have a p.o.s eg civic but my buddy ended up selling his swap that we were putting in it and i finnaly got the shell sold along with my da shell. so i threw all my money together, 1500 from the 2 shellls and 1300 from dirtbike and bought a 97 civic, pretty clean without rust or anything and i am in the process of doing a stock rebuild of my b18c with a couple little bolt ons and hopefully here within the next couple weeks it will be almost ready or in the car. but being only 17 with a little bit of money and having to pay for everything on my own, money is running pretty low and is kinda hard to pul it all together to get this thing finished, but im managing it somehow. let me know what you think. or suggestions what to do with it.
























Got everything all cleaned up, and the crank polished and measured






Powdercoated the valve cover, lookin pretty clean

Startin to come together, I cant wait

so i started pulling out the single cam, and just then realized that the long drivers side axle popped out just enough where it wouldnt do anything, but i kept goin and after about an hour and a half or so the single cam is almost ready to drop out of there =) finally gsr will have a home again, waitin for last couple things. and plan to pick up trans within the nex 2 days
