Progress on the civic/random pictures

Post by civicex442 »

It has been a while since I posted up any progress on my car. Since my accident it has been kinda slow, but with extra cash acquired from selling random stuff and my christmas bonus, i have done a few things. most of the pictures are shitty and will update over the next day or so with new pictures i have taken

oem strut bar
painted random things in engine bay
round passwordjdm fogs
a pillar gauge pod and gauges - ricer - i gotta let it out some how
dc sports short shifter - got for free!
skunk 2 shift knob
skunk 2 tuner series stage 1 cams
vision adj cam gears - were supposed to be gunmetal but o well i f-ed up
changed head gasket - oem
traded slips :-( for group n's - they are growing on me though. especially with the new....
ricer tuner lugs with red tops
fixed oil burning, carbon shooting, desil looking problem. pcv breather box had a bad o ring where it enters the block. one $.32 o ring and i was on my way
replaced cracked gsr rad with a dx rad i stole out of a civic i found in the woods out by my house! hey! im on a budget!
i think that is all for now.... enjoy!

without fog lights

custom brackets i had to make in order to make fog lights work cuz the guy before me cut the bumper. this is about 6 hours worth of fabrication to make everything line up good!!!!
