this is my civic its a 93 EG5 D16z6
plans to turbo track/road car
car was only running 114bhp with 102 torque with a cone air filter when i got it, so first thing was to get it back upto standard power, and since my valve stem seals were on way out i got the head reconditioned, and added a cat-back exhaust, after that it made 125.6 bhp with 113.5 torque, so was happy with that.
not had any other engine mods as of yet, probably manifold and de-cat next.
i have removed the power steering pump which freed up the engine a little, i have also stripped virtually everything out of the car except heater matrix (as i use the car on a daily basis). more weight saving to come, poly windows, cut out any metal not needed, fibreglass wings, fibreglass or carbon boot an bonnet.
suspension wise i have lowered it on Gmax shocks an springs(40mm), got front and rear strut braces, D2 LCA's, lower rear tie bar, H-brace.
need either c-b bars or rollcage
painted the car Nato Green, powdercoated my wheels orange (but thinking about gettin some black EK vti alloys)
thats it for now
