This is my Honda Civic 1.4 16v Tornado. I picked the car up last Saturday, I've been in love with Hondas' for a long time now and now I have my own. Without further adue here she is...
My girl is currently 99.9% standard, I took the badges and wiper off of the rear, imo I don't think that I did too bad, however my only issue is that there is still some serious residue left from the edges of the badges. I'm assuming it's grime and dirt gathered over a grand total of 15 years untouched.
She also has an entire Honda service history and she is due for a service, I'm going to take her in for her 15th year service this week or next.
I'm also picking up some D2 Coilovers for her this evening so I'll have her sat on the floor until my plans can get underway properly.
My plans for the car currently;
A B series conversion (I'm not sure if I go for a 1.6 or a 1.8 this is something I'll decide as it gets closer to the time, will also be running uprated internals)
Pre-facelift 9 bumpers, and skirts all of the way around
I'm currently unsure about wheels... It's a difficult colour to work with but my favourite wheels are Regamaster Evo's so I'll be investing in a set of those
Front and rear brake conversion off of an ITR, with spoon calipers (including rotors, 5 stud ftw!)
Spoon Carbon duck bill
Spoon Carbon front splitter
A quick release bonnet, because race car
Purple tow hook (same shade as the d2's)
Purple tow strap (as above)
Stripped interior resprayed in starlight black
Black DC2 recaros
Takata harnesses
X brace
Harness bar
Flocked black dash, centre console and door cards
Seam welding everywhere
Bay will be resprayed in CW (I think it will stand out really nice against the colour)
WIRE TUCK!
Uprating my steering rack
Different subframe
Full spoon exhaust system
My arches welded and chopped (there's some minor bubbling and we all know what that means)
Buddyclub p1 racing arms
ASR rear anti-roll bar
Uprated front anti-roll bar
New running gear all of the way round
A re-spray in the same colour
It is going to be a very long project, currently building my shopping list up.
As always comments and criticism is welcome, I'm not sure if my plan list will ever be complete so I'll probably keep adding to it, but that's what I've got so far guys!
