Suuuuup guys, so I posted my build under the tech thread instead of the actual build thread like a dumbass so I figured I'd go ahead and start it here. So I picked up a clean 2000 civic a few months ago completely stock. The guy I bought it from had no interest in building it or making any modifications to it so that was a good thing. Did routine maintence on it when I got it, tune up oil change etc. Here's how she sat when I first got her.
No major dents, scratches. Just a few paint chips here and there that I'm planning on filling in later next week.
Next thing I accomplished was getting the windows tinted, threw on a front and rear lip, black housing headlights, and some window visors. Also purchased some new MSD wires and plugs to throw in there. Along with a short ram cold air intake.
Starting to get somewhere now. Managed to pick up some Enkei wheels for her and got some extended lugs. Rims are 15s and tires are 205/90s.
Recently just picked up another valve cover from a guy locally and started sanding down the old paint and getting it all cleaned up. Recently just finished painting it 2 coats primer, 3 coats paint. She's ready to be put on. Picking up new gaskets and bolts today to do it.
Hooked up my subs aswell so it is a pleasure driving her around. Not to mention the gas mileage compared to the pathfinder I had before her. Also have a catback exhaust on the way aswell. Looking forward to putting that on sometime next week. Sure has been a fun build so far.
Plans for the future are going to be an engine swap, lowering the b***h, and getting more engine upgrades. Just depends on what swap I'll be going with and what I will want. All will have to be done when I get back from bootcamp. The exhaust will probably be the last thing I get to do before I ship out. Anyway, open to suggestions. Let me know what you guys think so far.
