I got a New Civic, Its a 1993 Civic DX Sedan. 100% stock right down to the Stock airbox going into its D15b7. Alas it does have a few problems, So as I fix them I figured I could make a Build thred :D

Image
Someone broke the Bezel around the Radio when they stole the Radio.

Image
F*Cking Theifs :x
This have to be set back in place. Might even replace with a 4dr rear handle.

Image
:thumbdown: Need to fix this, Not sure how, I guess just take off the Door panels and use spray glue and re-attach them.

I picked this up out of a Junkyard for 950 out the Door. I have to take it to the Washington State VIN inspectors and make sure its all legal on 12/24.After that I have a few Mods planned for it.

- Lower the Sedan on GOOD Coilovers or Lowering springs. I know I dont want ebay coil-overs agian. I was thinking of something soft, yet low. I will take recommendations.

- Install a EX/Si Cluster, or well anything with a Tach.

- Get the Windows Professionally Tinted. Already removed the Trash DIY job someone else did.

- Install Knockoff JDM Headlights and Amber Corners. Possible HID Retrofit.

Misc Pics:
Image
Old Shitty tint that I already removed

Image
Image
The Seats and Interior are mostly in good shape.

Image
the Sedan so needs a Drop.

Image
My Family of Hondas :D

Most of what I have done so far is just clean everything Up. I will try cleaning up the Engine bay next as I don't want to do any Real mods until I get it inspected by the State Patrol. Fixing the body will come first, then giving it a Good Drop.

I Figured it would be such a fun task to put that in. Thanks for the heads up.

I have gotten tired of seing this:
Image

I got the Harness from a 89 Acura Legend Soldiered it in. Thankfully all the colors matched. :thumb:
Image
Image

I got a Panasonic Radio and 4 Infinti 6" x 9" Speakers for a $100.
Image
I wired the Radio to a 88-00 Honda Radio Harness I picked up from Bestbuy, I also Installed 2 of the Infinti 6"x9" into the Rear Speakers holes. However took the radio took the Rear speakers with them. :thumbdown:

The Car is Currently Liceansed and Insured. I am dailying this until I swap transmissions in my Purple Coupe.

After that here is my Plans (in no order):
- Finish fixing Body Damage
- Swap Bezel (One ordered and on the way ;D )
- Install EX/Si Cluster
- eBay "JDM" headlight knocks w/ City lights w/ Amber Corners
- Tint Windows
- Prepare for Respray. Eventually Respray Si Blue
- Lower 1.5" - 2" on GOOD Coilovers/Springs. Maybe Teins?
- Perform Mini-Me with a Z6 or Y8 Head.
- Install a EX/Si Transmission
- I/H/E
- Get some Rims, I want BRONZE Circuit 10's :hehe:

Any Suggestions for a Soft Ride yet wont slop around turns like OEM Does?
This wont be my Racer, I do want it to handle well and be alot quicker then what it is now though.

Thanks.

Today being my day off I got some stuff done.

First off was Working on the body a Bit. The the Door handle to sit almost OEM now.

Image
I have sanding and bondo work to do before painting.

I have been tired of the Door Cloth being all loose and Baggy, so I got some Spray Glue and Decided to fix that.

Image
Image

When I finished regluing all 4 Doors, I Decided to redo the Rims after seeing the Painted Steeles Thread.

Image
Image

The Poor picture Quality is because of my Blackberry hates taking pictures in the evening or anything remotely dim.
I have a Silver lip, with the Center "H" remaining Silver. Everything else on the Rims where painted Flat Black. A friend of mine has a Good camera, I want to take better pictures when I get a chance.

I have been toying with Painting my Sedan White instead of blue. White Sedans look Sexy as Hell, and White is a much more forgiving Color. The only downside is I would have to paint my engine bay white as well. I have time before I paint. I am in major need of Dumpage. I think one of the next things done will be lowering the Sedan.

#95896 I got a Dead pedal, Picked one up at a Junkyard for 6 bucks, made some holes in the carpet and screwed it in. I can believe they made these cars with out them. Having no dead pedal is just wrong.

Image

Not a big update, however its lightyears better then it not having one.

#104254 Took off the DX OEM 13" Steelies and put the EX OEM 14" Steelies and Hubcaps that came off my Coupe onto it. Gave the Hubcaps a fresh Spray of Silver and it makes the car look 100% better.

Still sitting 4x4Style, I am fixing that. I have Eibach Pro Series Lowering springs coming for it to help get to respectable stature. Its also going in to get a get the darkest tint legal in Washington State.

I have, and have had for a while the replacement parts for the broken dash pieces. I am looking into how to get the dash off to put the new parts on, Thankfully we have a EG 4door at the Junkyard I will be Practicing on.

Its my Sedans turn to get new toys. :thumb:
