Hey guys, I forgot I registered on this site a LONG time ago... figured I'd show you all whats been up in the past year or so. Trying to get the car ready for autox events this summer. So I'll be posting a lot of updates here! Stay tuned! I own a '00 civic HX. Its been my daily driver for 4 years now, and finally going to do something with it. I'll be getting it ready for track, but it will also be on the road. The body lines suck ass, I know. It's been in so many hit and runs, touge runs, etc etc haha. They will be fixed along with other stuff. Heres the mods so far: Exterior: C-West bumper ARC Magic Spoilers J's Racing EK canards JDM liscence plate angler Bumper quick releases side markers Seibon OEM style carbon fiber hood J's Racing hood pins Spoon mirrors Spoon windshield banner (J's racing one in the mail) Antenna delete blockoff plate Painted handles, and side skirts EDM Rear foglight "SiR" headlights 8000k HID's Nokya hyper yellow 1157 bulbs Honda Access window visors J's Racing front and rear tow hooks EGR rear window visor Wheels and tires: 15" RPF1 replicas 195/55/15 Hancook something or others Engine: OBD2 Acura Integra LS motor (B18B) Hondata thermal intake manifold gasket J's Racing intake Samco hoses full Custom CPS 3" exhaust Innovative motor mounts, 75A track inserts Skunk2 reservior covers B&M Fuel pressure regulator 12" slim fan J's Racing oil cap J's Racing radiator cap NGK platinum pluggs NGK blue wires MSD external blaster coil MSD cap and rotor Vision fuel pressure gauge Yowaii SS blue cooling plate Interior: F1 shift knob CTR shift boot CTR dual din block off plate JDM cup holder Lower relocated CD player Flip screen CD player Kenwood speakers up front Pioneers in the rear Nordskog digital air intake temp gauge Nordskog digital water temp gauge Nordskog digital oil pressure gauge Wink 5 panel mirror Momo dragster race wheel NRG quick release with Boss hub 3" shifter extension JDM side vent pocket Suspension + brakes: KSport full coilovers Aspec racing front and rear strut bar ASR rear subframe brace (blue) UGR gold LCA's Beaks lower tie bar Suspension techniques front and rear sway bar Braided stainless steel brake lines Stock brakes....for now Heres my massive load of parts: And finally, the car: Thats all for now, lots of updates still coming.
looks pretty good so far. im not much of a fan of the roof spoiler though. looks awkward to me. whyd you choose KSport coilovers if this is going to be tracked? imo, PIC, Koni/GC, or even Tein Basics are much better for some track duty.
Ksports are temporary for now. I use to run Skunk2 sleeve coilovers with KYB GR2's (horrible) and I ended up blowing 2 struts, so it was just ridiculous to DD them. I didnt have the money to fork out for some Teins (which I probably will soon enough) but these will do for now. 4 of my friends rock these including me, and to tell the truth, they're not bad at all. But we'll see. If I blow some seals the first time I hit the track, well, I guess thats what I payed for. Bushings, yes. I have ES rear trailing arm bushings, shifter stabilizer bushings, front control arm bushings, and front and rear sway bar bushings. But thats about it for now, I will upgrade most of them as I finish the car. And thanks andre haha
Thanks! Ended up painting my black fender and OE front bumper, so.... Heres some updates...the new look for winter! \ More pictures later today
not trying to say anything about your style but i think it looks 20x better with the oem bumper and without the spoiler. rear window visor is sick though! you do good work
Yeah don't worry, I'm liking the OE front a lot better too actually! Plus I dig fog lights haha. But thanks for the input guys! I went and took a few more pics, sorry the car is very dirty but it is my DD afterall The bumper needs a few more coats of silver, its looking a little darkish/gray rather than VSM..and it does sag in places, but that will be fixed here soon. Promise! haha
I just wasnt feeling the 15's anymore. I did like the silver on white no doubt, but I wanted 16's, and I got these for a steal. So had to try them out
