Hey guys,

I need some idias on what to do to my civic!?

I got an old school civic "1990 Civic DX Hach"

I don't know what looks good for the body?!

I herd Buddy Club 1 kit is verry good, but I have never scene one, so I am not sure what to do to the exterior?!

Any idias?!

Sell it and buy an Si hatch!

Swap in a D16Z6 or D15B engine in there. Talk to donesixer about getting about 130 hp engine. Otherwise, have Leitner (b16civic) hook you up with a full build on a motor of your choice. The D-blocks are the easiest fit. Then, do the susp up with a set of Konis and Progress springs, and progress sway bars. Then, get a Wings West RS body kit, paint it all, do the interior... and voila!! $10K into the project and you have a brand new, bomb as hell car!

or put an Si lip and just lower it

SO all you want do is body mods?
Show car, or just a good looking daily driver? Or both??

If you're into shaved mouldings, then go ahead and do that...

**** man, you have to have your own taste to mod a car the way you want to. Do what you like to it. IF you like how something looks, then do it.

Get an aggressive INVADER body kit, SUPRA Style wing or a BOEING wing, cut your springs, throw on a fart can, alcheezas, and 35 stickers for some added HP...



Honestly, if you don't know what to do with it yet, then don't do anything. Browse some websites, check out some car shows to get ideas...

hey roy that civic is a 1st gen .. and it solo 2's all the time (I've seen it go, it's fast)

i LOVE that car LOL .. anyone know what yr they are from ?? Canada doesn't have them right ?

No I already swapped it, its a GSR engine, in a 1990 Civic Hach, sorry I should have told you, right now I just did the engine, that was Step 1.

Step 2: I took all interior out, and I am going to put a CRX dash inside, with GSR leather seats.

Step 3: would be cleaning the body of all the ******* rust I got on it, then give it a nice looking body kit so it doesn't look to show because the car will be mostly for go, just to fix the body up, I mean I got the car originally for $500, with a clean dx motor with 177,000 k on it, the only problem the bumpers and fenders were bent like **** so I took them off, and I already put in an order for the z3 style fenders cost me $475 now I saw the wings west kit, and I don't like it, now all its left is to get a front bumper, and back bumper some altezas, and Ill call in tomorrow to see what type of hood's they have? I was thinking on getting the Turbo Style Carbon Fiber Hoods, I saw one on a CRX it looked sick!!!

Then Ill lower it as much as I can, not really a lot because of the GSR and then shave my backs window washer and that thing in the middle I don't know how you call it, its rite beside the lights, in the centre. And the wholes in the doors, then give it a nice Lexus Blue Paint job. I figure all that should cost me around $5000 or more.


PS: If you know anybody that's not to far from Brampton, that does really good work on Hondas please give me there name and phone numbers.
Thanks,

that one pictured is a 73...
and I've seen a handfull of them
there's one inside the center honda showroom all restored to original condition

airfalcon

^ yeah they got one here at Classic Honda, in Brampton, also restored...

R0Y

if you're saying mostly for go then why not keep it looking stock
replace the front and back with the OEM bumper or replica... and get the stock front lip Keep it looking clean and don't get the altezas ... coz those things are ****... they don't look good, they leak and they're road hazards coz ppl following u can't see the lights .....

but if u insist then no one can stop u ... these are just my thoughts... plus u get less hassles <--spelling?
oh... and don't slam ur car just lower it a little for the sake of ur wallet

airfalcon

yeah I might as well keep it look stock, just clean all the rust order new bumpers, fix it up nice and clean then just paint it...

as for the lowering part, I like cars really low, but because of the GSR engine in it, it's bitch the max I can lower it is an 1 inch or 2 that's about it... oh well at least it's fast heh... Ill post a pic of it in a sec...

airfalcon
