#333519 So i purchased a 1992 civic with 102k back in 2010.
I drove it to school but i just felt like it was too slow for me,
so i sold the complete swap, plus it was starting to have knocking issues.
So after sitting for 3 years i decided it was time to finish it. So on with pics.........

#333669 So i guess the radiator support was some cheap taiwan because i
jacked up the front from the mounting point and it got bent. So i
ordered a new one from Honda and it'll be in the body shop for a bit.
I also removed everything in the engine bay to might as well as get
some new color into it.

#333753 Thanks everyone! :D
So i have a small update for today. The radiator Support is now welded
on and painted. The guys at the shop convinced me to do the body
work on it since its damaged from the rear quarter panel and has dents
everywhere. So no more blue, i will leave it primered black untill the build
is complete.
Quick teaser of how the whole engine bay will look :woot:
