Remember when Civics were cool ? Yea me neither

- Wed Jul 23, 2008 9:40 am #63058 Looks like a really clean car you got love the wheels, but think your right drop a few sizes.

Have you got any engine plans for her yet??? And where about are you from???

- Wed Jul 23, 2008 11:00 am #63060 Thanks for the kind comments

There are still alot of things I want to do to the car but its a case of funding it atm, and also the insurance lol.

As for the engine, I'm going to wait a year or so and see if I can stretch for a K20, but if not then I will drop in a B18 with a B20 block and build up from that.

I'm from the UK, West Midlands area.

Sweet another one from the UK looks like we're starting to get a big community started, have you got any plans to go to JAE this year and show off your car???

- Wed Jul 23, 2008 7:55 pm #63116 I'm not sure about going to JAE yet, but I think that I will be going to Jap show in October

Where abouts are you from then mate?

- Thu Jul 24, 2008 5:42 am #63178 Freakin beautiful.... I love what you did with your interior door panels..... I have a couple questions.... How did you tint your rear tailights? And the other question is... what did you do with your steering wheel from before? I personaly like the original better..

Overall.... Great set up

I'm from the SE on the Herts Essex border.

You should really think about coming to JAE it's now one of the biggest jap shows in the UK and is now at a new location so is going to be even bigger than last year.

Thanks mate

erm, as for the rear lights, take them out and give them a really good clean, I got some masking tape to mask off off the red half of the lights, and also the reflector as I wanted a bit of contrast, bought some black tail light spray (off ebay) and gave it two even coats...

Heres a couple pics for ya mate




Hope that helps.

As for the OEM steering wheel I just find it too big, felt like I was driving a tractor, and having the smaller one made the power steering heavier so IMO its much better, but I have kept the steering wheel incase I ever want to go back to standard.



Ecc0, tbh mate I don't really know that much about JAE, I have only ever been to Japshow at Santa pod, I dont know when its on either.
If I get the chance I will look into coming
