had posted this in the 5th gen section but it seems dead so i moved it here
some background on my car
i bought it with 182k for dirt cheap needed a head gasket
changed the headgasket drove it for a week then swapped it
did all simple maintenance on it bought all new suspension for it
then slowly modded it to what its at now, sitting strong at 206k
and mind you i bought the car in march 2011
and some info about me
21 years old got my first honda at 15 a crx with ls
then went through a few cars and got a ls ej1 but it ran like s***
got a fresh 95 milano red dx coupe and unfortanetly totalled it
then had a cgp coupe and ended up spinning a bearing and traded it for a
black ej1 with ls and gsr tranny and at the same time bought my current 95 frost white ej2, so i spent a day swapping both and sold the ej1 cause the body was s***
and enough reading and onto pics
How i first got it
then it was time for a swap
then tried out a roof rack for a lil
then got my suspension
and how my interior is at the moment
then traded the sunflowers for some konigs
then got ready for winter and sold my lip
then traded the konigs for jmags, and got a beaks bar and trunk brace and got a uncut bumper and ex lip
then picked up da seats and swapped pans and rails so all bolts lined up
some newer pics
some pic from today 1/7/12 since it was nice out
so a lil update i ended up trading my jmags with huge tires for a set of fresh rota grids that are 4 months old with fresh matching tires all cause the dudes girl liked the color of mine
so heres the pics of them mind you i traded after it snowed 5 inches here today
and heres the only nick on the rims
couldnt resist and had to throw my wheels on
gas station pic
and me hitting 205k with a fully
well heres a semi update i had to get new pads and rotors seeing autozone ones stuck and due to a one pad sticking on a metal clip and uneven wear my warning tab was rubbing so since they were under warranty i replaced them
then while taking it apart i snapped the bolt for the driverside caliper in the caliper bracket ..... luckily when i had my ek after totaling my red ej2 i had to take the passenger side for my ek and ended up taking the drivers off the ej2 and saving it with the bracket still attached so luckily i had a extra bracket that saved me a headache
heres a pic of the fresh parts and this time i lubed everything so no more hnaging up
and another pic of my car with the new rims and lugs and a pic from a local meet
some quick morning shots
went to the diy car wash and snapped some pics in the process
all comments welcome and i know about the rust and i need to do it

Here's a small update that I did recently for now till it gets fully tucked and resprayed
.
newest update 7/1/12
so i had the car up for sale and was gonna build my hatch but then the hatch got rear ended and no one bought the car i decided to do what i wanted to originally
so i ordered the last parts i needed and got injectors and now onto the pics.
and ive still yet to full detail the car seeing it sat for 2 months
.
.
.
then i ended up having to do the clutch seeing the stock one couldnt handle the boost and would just slip
no pics of getting the one in though
.
and comparison to the two disks
.
.
and my new problem as of 7/6/12
was driving home from local meet and heard a bolt bounce under my car
and knew from when doing my clutch that the slave bolts were messed up so i knew it was my slave
i pushed the pedal and it went to the floor,luckily i was on the highway and already in 5th
so i made it to the off ramp of my town where my boy met me and we got it so i can nurse it home
so tomorrow morning im getting a new slave since mine pissed out fluid and was old
