Hey what's going on everybody this is my first civic and fresh into the Honda scene i thought about getting an EG after looking at this site a couple times no lie and couldn't decide between coupe,hatch, or sedan....i chose sedan (family car with style).After seeing all the sick rides on this forum i decided I want to make mines uber fresh!! This is going to be my first build and i'm doing this on a budget (thanx california economy) im also learning as i go along so any input, advice, suggestions, criticism lol is welcomed. Sorry about the essay just needed my intro.
I bought this 94 Civic LX for $900 (of course needed work) good deal or bad deal?
The motor is stock d15b7 with about 285,000 miles and climbing(my daily driver)
Automatic transmission
4x4 suspension jk but it looks lifted compared to ones i seen
When i bought the car it didn't have side skirts, window moldings, antenna, driver seat had foam missing a few tears, front passenger door didn't work (wasn't connected),front bushings were torn and a/c wasn't blowing cold air, cracked windshield
So far i've gotten the side skirts, window moldings,driver seat, and a/c blows freezing air (just needed fuse), painted corners amber from the DIY list and put front HyperFlex polyurethane bushings
eeehhh for now
My future plans for this car include:
Paint job
new windshield
Tint
Drop the car not totally slammed just right in between
amber corners
convert it from auto to manual (probably going to do this last need to do research before i jump into it)
Sound system: speakers all around, cd player (mine still has the factory cassette player that doesn't even work!!)
This is it for now so if you have any suggestions let me know..i'm new to this and still learning so any input would be gladly appreciated [list=][/list][list=][/list]
