ok, so i've been lurking for a little bit now and asking some questions. i figured it was time to post up my ride and see what you all have to think about it. its going to be a slow build as i'm in the military and broke, and living in ND its cold for a long time...
a little about my Honda history. i've owned a 89 CRX USDM with lots and lots of EDM parts as i lived in Germany with it, had to sell it cause i got divorced. also owned a 04 EP3 Si, raced around the Ring in it (truly amazing) and shipped it back to America. got back here and the spark plug blew up and destroyed the engine, couldn't afford a new engine so i sold it.
thats what leads me to where i am now...missed having a Honda and so i found an 92 civic hatch VX. i just had to save it from the rednecks so i bought it and here is what im working with
gotta love the flames
yep B18B mated to a S80 LSD...thats the main reason i bought it
so i know it needs lots of body work, but thats probably going to be next year. this year i'm just trying to get the engine running...i want it running smooth in time for summer, about 2 months away
goal for next weekend is to put on my power doors
and i have a POS aftermarket header comming in so i can put in an O2 sensor and get rid of the last CEL i have.
does anybody know what kind of seat this is, is it a stock EG seat? it's really cozy while driving.
for the future...
the ultimate goal is to hopefully go back to germany and race the Ring again but this time in VX'd and so i have a motivator in my garage for me and the car
but other future mods hopefully include...
1. get runnung like it should
2. get body fixed and painted...White
3. carbon fiber hood/roof/spoiler
4. newer suspesion
then after all thats done i'll work on the interior
let me know what you think. any ideas are welcome
