Next time you should put the antenna down before taking pictures. These hatches look like damn RC cars with them up. I wouldn't necessarily drool all over the car, but it looks like a good base to start from. Good luck.

Looks like it is coming along nicely. Kudos to you on waiting to lower it the right way. Keep up the good work.

Well, mine came from a 86-87 Ford Thunderbird Turbocoupe. My good friend Sean and his dad are huge Ford nerds and happened to just have it laying around and I asked about it one time and his dad was talking about how the IHIs on the turbocoupes were always thought to be too small for the 2.3L motors. And I thought "hmmmm... I bet it would be a good quick spool on a 1.5 though!" So I asked if he'd sell it to me and for how much and he said he wasn't gonna use it and he didnt know how much it was worth so he just gave it to me! lol Said I could pay him for it by getting some use out of it. lol
It has almost unnoticible shaft play and spins freely. So I think it is going to work out great in my setup.

Thanks man. It's Paradise Blue Green Pearl (BG-33P). Factory Honda color.
They only put it on 1995 Civics and Integras. I love it. lol Never thought teal would grow on me hahaha.

Yeah. They are just the OEM 13 inch Honda Civic VX wheels that came on my car from the factory. They are, in fact, lighter than steelies! I am however wanting to buy 15 inch WedSports TC-005's in white.

lol Yeah I really wish I could. It's bent a little I guess and wont go in any further. I really just want to remove it and get a block off plate. I don't even listen to radio in my car haha. Thanks for the comment man.

Overall, thanks for all the comments. Its a great car and theres sooo much more to come.

If any of you are interested, my entire build has been documented on JDMCivic.com from the first day I bought all the way til now.

Wow. So it's been a really long time since I've been over here.
Figured I'd update things.

Theres been alot thats changed since I last posted here.

As I read back through the last few posts, there was alot of discussion about my stock suspension. Well, you will all be glad to know that the hatch has gone through 2 different setups since then and is now currently on PIC Performance "Apex Series" coilovers. 10k/8k spring rates. Best money I've spent.

Also, I did an Integra rear disc conversion. Bought Hawk Brake pads for up front. I have an Integra LS front sway and tomorrow I will be picking up ITR LCAs and the PIC rear lower perches to match. Then i can finally throw on my LS rear sway until i can buy a bigger one.

I have bought alot of things for the interior as well as a few exterior things.

I picked up a set of silver Konig Heliums.

And a JDM SiR 2-piece wing.

For the interior, i bought a used random Italian wheel and a OEM Momo horn button.

Also did my door panels in fabric that I don't really like anymore.
Oh and I got a set of Del Sol seats! So comfy!

Not much has changed under the hood unfortunately. Still rolling a stock JDM D15B. But it wrongs strong and has a fresher tranny now.
Only thing different really is my valve cover which was done custom for me by a buddy!

How about some fairly recent photos?
