Iv had my civic since april and loved every minute of it, by car the best car iv had so far!
Its a vsm ej9 with a b16a2: spec when bought
dc sports front and rear upper strut braces
dc sports cat back
rota gt3's
282 front brakes
top fuel induction kit
socketed p30 ecu
ek9 suspension
fulll width ally radiator
white line front and rear ARB's
1st thing was to waxoyl the car to protect it!
i also painted the rear drums and front calipers black while i had car on ramp!
Then my garage was moving premises so i was just using the car, new unit and the workshop at my disposal when ever i like.
As you may have guessd by the workshop we're a landrover specialist.
This is how the car stayed for a while, this picture was taken just before japfest2. Made the trip to japfest with a good mate of mine, he was in his crx.
fitted some DOHC stickers
The car had a few bits i wasnt happy with, the type r badge on the back covering where a badge had been badly removed, and the wheels didnt do it for me colour wise. Had the boot lid resprayed and the wheels refurbed! Also bought a s80 LSD s mine has a 3rd gear crunch
Thats how the car currently stands, been used everyday. Then i obviously had the craving for more power, after a conversation with b18C'R EK decided b18 was the way to go. Then this came up for sale,
im sure some of you will have seen it for sale on ebay, me and my mate whos a sprayer have gone halfs as a project. Got our recovery driver to pick it up for us, rota alloys, carbon bonnet, eibach springs, tokico shocks, powerflow backbox.
Plan is to take the engine out of my car and put it in the saloon to make it a runner to sell. Then the profit from selling will be used to fund a new engine for mine, while its off the road plan is to pollybush and ball joints. Car wil also be getting resprayed. My Mate who i bought the saloon with is going to respray it for nothing, he has a mx5 project that i wi be fitting a the bits to for him after he has painted it. This brings us up to date as tonight i started taking the engine out of the saloon.
As always comments, good and bad welcome. Should be more to follow tomorrow as i hoping to have the engine lifted out, got one driveshaft and mounts left.
