My new car-sort of....90 Civic 4dr

Post by RSXSLVR79 »

Well, what is it they say-what happens in vegas stays in vegas? Well not for this 90 Civic ED 4dr. I have been eying this on honda tech and decided to go out and get it since i was in town for a wedding anyways. here is the rundown on the car:

Engine:
• 1993 Integra GS B18A; 140hp/127trq, 9.2:1 compression(stock)
• PR4 ECU
• HCP Motor mounts
• Skunk2 Pro intake manifold
• AEM intake
• HKS Sport exhaust; 50mm piping(≈2inches), 60mm dual tip
• JDM exhaust manifold
• Crower Stage 1 street cams; up to 12hp gain
• B&M fuel pressure regulator
• Vision Motor Works fuel pressure gauge
• 9” Slimfan
• NGK wires/Iridium plugs
• Password billet cam seal
• Hasport A/C bracket
• Rywire harness

Tranny:
• GS YS1
• Fidanza 7.5lb aluminum flywheel
• Exedy clutch
• Findanza short shifter
• Hasport shift linkage

Suspension:
• Integra GS front and rear disk brakes
• Stainless lines
• Tokico blues
• TEIN S-tecs 4.8kg/2.2kg; -1.5/-1.4
• Front and rear camber correction
• Neuspeed Front strut and rear lower tie bar
• Meagan rear strut bar
• 15”Rota GT3 Gunmetal/polish, Kuhmo 195/50/15

Interior:
• JDM Integra DA seats
• NRG short hub and quick release
• Shiftlight/tach
• Kenwood speaker all around

Exterior:
• Projector headlights
• Clear corners
• Custom paint

GOOD: Runs awesome, good A/C, new front tires(good rears), new battery, ENEOS oil change, everything works.

BAD: Needs CV boot(not clicking, just torn), needs driver side corner replaced(works, just broke), minor curbing on a couple of the wheels.



needless to say, the car DOES run awesome. Until i get my raise, i have these few upgrades in mind:

new LCA and UCA's-all are rattling pretty bad
new corner lights-ambers
new headlights-are there any other than stock that look decent?
floor mats
new cd deck

Long-term:
New paint-i actually like the 2-tone job here but the clear coat is pretty much non-existent
LS-VTEC or B16 swap-havent decided yet
Coilovers

all in all, this will serve as my daily to and from work (round trip of 100 miles) The car has tons of potential and i cant wait to start using it.
As soon as i got home, i shaved all the stickers under the hood along with the one covering the 3rd tail light as well as the 1.8 shit on the trunk.

I drove it back from Vegas over the last 2 days and it got 35 mpg! motor runs amazing and wants to pull all the time!

im open to recomendations or suggestions. I bet alot on here dont care for the 2 tone paint, but i think it works here.

now for the pics:

my quick first impression is i really like it , simple clean and probley a blast to drive


my mods would be stock headlights, leave the clears, paint the rims black (i think it will flow better ) needs a lip and a stock steering wheel and shift light delete.

other then those few minor things i really like it and am jealous, a clean ef 4dr has always been on my list of wants

That thing looks TERRIBLE. You should get it as far away from STL (and NM) ASAP. I'm willing to help though. Just PM me and I'll take it off of your hands....




















JK, damn clean car. Nice find!

the dash cover wins. i hated seeing them on newer cars at acura, but a car this old it works. i think the wheel needs to be changed along with the wheels. something to go with the age of the car. ssssooooooo just really what chris said. the body is in great shape. good pick up.
