Hey everyone. My name is Colten and I'm from the Carbondale area. I have a silver 99 Civic CX. I bought the car bone stock from the original owner in Memphis, TN in 2007.

Here is a pic of the day I brought it home:

Image

I did some things here and there, and the car ended up looking like this:

Image

I was happy with the way the car looked at this point, so I thought I could do a budget K24 swap.

Image

I had pieced together alot of the swap whenever I had an identity crisis. So I sold the car, bought a stock S13 coupe and did a SR swap.

Image

Image

I had horrible luck with the car. The turbo was siezed up when I bought the swap. Then one month after the car was back on the road, I spun a bearing. So I had it rebuilt. When the motor was being rebuilt I traded for a S13 hatch and put the SR in that.

Image

It was fun to drive around but it was unreliable. So I sold it and bought a 97 dap hatch.

Image

I didn't do alot to it besides wheels and a few interior things. Then I heard my old silver hatch might be back up for sale, so I knew I had to have it back. Luckily, the guy I sold it to took good care of it so I bought it back in pretty much the same condition in which I sold it. Here is a recent pic of it:

Welcome back. I love this hatch. I remember seeing it on STLSR when you were putting together the K Swap a while ago.

It never did. Whenever I sold the car, I parted out all of the k-swap parts. It has a B16A2 currently.

thanks for the welcome everyone
