Car specs are in sig.

I am new here but have been around honda's for about a year or so. I've been a member on turbod16 for a year. My name on there is hypnotiqcivic99.

Thought I would show some pics of my ride. I will be doing an auto to manual swap soon and I am wanting to make a write up about it or a DIY of some kind. I think that would help alot of people out who are wanting to know how to do it.

Car has stock suspension but in a month or two it will be getting lowered.

When I had just put my headlights back on after painting the housings black. JDM :)

And my sound system. Made the box myself. It's kind of big but it called for 1.75ci so I guess it had to be that big.

Hope you liked them. I would love some comments cuz they are always appreciated. Thanks! Hope to learn alot here and maybe give some info away as well. I will be sharing my auto to manual swap here. Thanks again.

Got a Manual D16y8 from a friend for $300 with only 48k miles on it.

Here it is when I first got it.

After selling the head and IM. Regret selling the IM because I need it for my auto to manual swap to run a 2-wire IACV.

It's not too bad. Cylinder walls are still in great shape.

Well my mom has problems and wants me out so I came to live with my dad. This time right now is actually my vacation time with my dad and I have a plane ticket back to SC on the 2nd. Not sure if I am going yet or not so I might be here to stay.

Well there could be a slight dilemma. The car is in my moms name and I onl have half of the car paid for. I don't think she is going to let me bring it up here unless my dad pays the rest in full right now. He doesn't have the money to do that so idk what is going to happen with my car. I am wanting to talk to her to let me get it and finish paying it off. If I don't get the car I am taking all the mods off that I put on and she think's it wont be able to sell if I do that (which is good because I don't want to get rid of it). It already has no muffler, it will have holes in bumper from fogs, holes from where I put lip on, no grille, no cd player etc..

If I can't get my car then I will be in the market for one. But my dads spending limit is only a couple thousand. like $2000-$3500 but idk. So if anyone has a civic for sale please let me know.

There is more to this story that I left out because it's emotional and I don't want to talk about it but yeah. I hope I can get my car.
