right my civic esi used to look like this, thought it looked ok, then realied it didnt, so decided to change some stuff on it. first thing was to stick an exhaust on to it, powerflow cat back. next thing to come was some lowering spring - still too high, then my referbed honda wheels done by myself.

the exhaust sticks out loads, its because it was not fitted properly as i need to get the centre pipe lengthened, so its using the standard one which is a little too long and makes it stick out.

got abit bored so took some better photo's

Took my car on tack

Image

Image

finally got round to ordering some disks and pads, and new lower ball joints

Image

thought that as i got the disks and pads i would test fit my new brakes behind my wheels to make sure they fitted

Image

as i got the new disks and pads i thought it was about time i gave my legend calipers a nice lick of paint

Image

Image

packed it all up ready for it to go off to the garage to be fitted

Image

whats this .....



































Image

i got a new engine dropped in

Image

BUT then 5 hours later the bottom end went on it, so back to the garage it went, while putting it on the back of the tow truck i noticed the garage had forgotton to put 2 of my wheel nuts on :S

Image

Image

, they stripped it to take a look and could not see why it had happened, and insisted that it was not worth fixing, and possibly ending my cars life here and stripping it for parts. i thought about it long and hard, was considering getting an integra, but for a JDM one it was far too much to insure, so that was out of the window, i really didnt want to give up my pride and joy that i had put time and money in to, so it all came down to ...........































a new engine
Image

oh and also an exhaust that you wont trip over now :P

Image

momo steering wheel and SIR dials

Image

Image

Got my new PIAA h4h bulbs

Image

and the bit you have all been waiting for the new engine

Image

Image

Image


fitted my H brace, it sits really low, have hit it a few times so far.

Image

Image

Image


Well I took a trip to my local scrap yard and there happened to be a JDM VTI in there, so I took the heater from it and installed it in my car

#48088 to get the heater to fully work, you need the heater matrix (big white thing in the middle) and the blower (white thing at the end) and all of the wiring for it. it was literally just plug and play.

not sure what the car is running, havent had it dyno'd yet, but i have a blown b16a engine in my garage, with the bottom end gone, so am thinking about building a b20 for it, to give it some more power.

just so everyone knows, i used to have a grey interior, so i have changed it all over to black. as for taking the dash out, its not as hard as you think.

i got some more additions to the car last week, but havent got photo's yet but will try get some later.
