#206875 Wish the hatch I ended up with was that one
got mine for a $700
I want a white manual.
I got a teal auto.

That car is well worth the money im happy you got it
My D15b7.
I drove the living piss out of it
I beat that engine hard and it took all of it

PS: THE FIRST THING YOU NEED TO DO
Is to take off the rubber strips lining your quarter panel
And then stop and fix that rust before it gets worse

If you dont fix your rust right away you will regret it

maybe right now im trying to figure out what is going on with my girl and my 4dr i gave it to her but its on my insurance etc lol so gotta see what happens with that because right now theres 3 cars on the road my moms my sisters and my 4dr so for right now the hatch is in limbo to when ill drive it but plans are as follows

switch out the interior from my civic to this white one so then i will have a black interior instead of a blue, since all i have is black interior parts....

Depending on how things go may do some maintainance on it for me to run it for awhile with that motor for the gas mileage as i may swap that d15b2 into the 4dr since it has less miles and it dosen't smoke.... and gets great gas mileage but that wont be until i get something together for this cx....

Rust im fixing first as well as either getting another door skin but yea gotta get it on the road first as well as get my red civic off to the new owner once i get it together etc....

so far plans for the motor and stuff like that are up in the air since its a 92 well im tempted to put a vtec in it as i wont have to wire it up lol...but then again im kinda not in the mood for vtec probaly if i can hide it good ill go boosted d but we will see

And i did however trade for some del sol green striped seats, fogs with oem switch (going on the red hatch for my friend.....) and keep the oem switch, got a jdm coin pocket , and edm headlights and corners and damn are they light in weight tempted to use the corners however also kinda apprehensive because they are rare, i do also have the all amber corners as well.....but we will see im going to mod this carefully.....might also swap over the gsr fronts i have on my red cx but yea we will see what ends up happening......


And so now getting ready to swap interiors so here we go.......pictures will be up shortly...

#207046 Update so before work yesturday i decided i would tackle swapping out interiors well that resulted in my fixing the white hatches missing glass screw in peice, swapping over one of the new hat c\shocks as one is definately enough to hold up the whole hatch, and swapping over front bumpers and supports as i have plans for the white hatch before i put my old civics interior in but anyhow took some pics enjoy....

p.s. decideing on stock oem or ambers as the jdm edm ones i got are for a 4dr.....
wow my old car is messy i havent touched it in awhile

#207186 Well wed. will be the on the road date possibly and i cannot wait to drive this thing....

But hopefully before that i get some time to do some work to it so i can change my interior to where im sorta able to drive it properly probaly going to drive it without anything but the cluster and steering wheel and a seat lol since i gotta do some wiring with it and i would like to do most of it before i put the interior completely back in so hopefully i can deal with it like that for a bit because third shift sucks ass! cant get anything done but yea my girls keeping the 4dr sicne its auto and we are keeping that on the road so yea we will have matching white hondas so yea will keep you all updated with what happens with my car....

#210465 very nice...I've been looking at cars down here in Tampa and there is no such of thing of "honda rust", it's almost weird. Looked at a 90 teg yesterday and it still had the QP rubber guard on it and no rust...$1100 with 123,000 on it.

well due to an accident involving a tractor trailer the rear hatch gets stuck and you have to slam it shut so youd have to pull the shell out a bit for it to be right but to be honest it would never be stock again.....plus i mean there where just things like suspension bushings going left and right and i wanted to find a shell at least that i could put money into and not have to do a crap ton of body work and stuff like that so yea my buddy offered to take care of it for me and im selling it to him im not completely getting rid of it because i will buy it back from him if he tires of it.....

so yea thats why i switched the white hatch will be better than the red in the long run yea rust is still there but it wasnt as bad as my red hatch so yea im more happy with the white one now than the red even tho i will have to do some work to it ohhh well....
