thanks boys. Gatherer, that's the exhaust gas temperature probe. it's wrapped in braided SS to protect it from heat. I even have thermal jackets for the oil line and also the coolant lines which you can't even see.

well the engine bay requires a lotta work. de-rustproofing it (remove all that grease from the enginebay), tucking all the wires away, and finally building the internals for 300 whp and painting the block, head, and tranny case.

thanks guys

thats a rare example of a civic done right. everything from engine, brakes, wheels/tires, suspension...sooo nice. now enjoy that puppy, all 300whp worth

where does the 5 point harness connect? like how did you get a bar there, how'd you do that.

It's about time. I was beginning to think that car would never be close to finished.

Nice and clean and simple. Just the way I like them. It looks like a total sleeper.
