Everything Unmasked:
Fresh D16z6 with 96-00 Civic HX Tall Geared Transmission.
D16z6 in the bay.
Another New thing, EDM Clear Stanley Corners.
When all was said and done I put my OEM Blue hood back on so it can be painted EBP with the rest of the car.
Orange Line viewable when Hood closed. I will probally paint the whole fender when I do it ebp so you dont notice the Orange bay when the hood is closed.
I took it out for a spin and its a blast. The z6 has so much better low end grunt the my super tired d15b7. The Clutch is also super grippy. I was really surprised on how much grip it has for taking almost no effort to push down. All said and done I am pretty pumped for how its done.
Current Specs:
Exterior:
USDM Headlights, OEM EDM Stanley Corners

Suspension:

15"x8" Quantem Tech Rims with 195/50/R15 Toyo Proxies4 Tires.
Under the Hood:
Custom Hugger Orange Engine Bay.
Stock D16z6 from Delsol Si

couldn't have said that better myself
bay looks good man...still using a blackberry for a camera? how's the driveability with the hx tranny?
oh what suspension are you looking at, and what do you have now?

No Tuck. Not a fan of them, Sure the bays look cool but I like keeping my harness nice and simple. Cuting and splicing the wires is only asking for trouble later on.

Using my Palm Pre, The Camera use to be better, Think i got something on the lens and its not as good anymore. I need to get a better camera, will be doing that soon.
I am thinking about getting godspeed full coils or ksport kontrols, whichever i can get a better deal on. and then some new rims. The car will have much better stance in 2011.
Driving with the HX Transmission is awesome. I have a super grippy clutch and the z6 has tons of torque compared to that dieing d15b7. Its a fun daily driver. although much slower then the Delsol, It doesn't fell that slow. I should have more updates coming Late Wedesday.

The Update I was hinting that would happen on Wedesday is when I originally planned on Painting the Sedan. However I decided to finish the EK Hatch Restoration I'm Doing. Got quite a bit done on it and basically need to Paint the 1/4 Panel, and a few touch up spots. Then order in a few new peices.
Once the Paint and Clear is dry on the hatch and done, Its going back outside and the Sedan is going in for Paint.
As for the Sedan, I got it a Goodie. I was at the Junkyard and saw an Acura EL! After drooling over it and wishing to move the entire car into my Sedan I snatched up the "1.6 VTEC" Valve Cover.
I also got a EX/Si 4-2-1 Exhaust Header in which to replace my horrible 4-1 DX Headers.
