You keep taking stuff off and it makes the car look sillier and sillier.
Car would have looked good/more complete with a lip, Boosts, hood, and other stuff you ALREADY had. Now it looks the "work in progress"

Re: 98 DX EJ6 stock......now
well, in my opinion.. i think the car will look better in the long run. i didn't like the carbon fiber hood.. it was too much and the lip was a horrible knock off that didn't fit right and looked like ****. i'm planning on getting an SIR lip oem. and eventually i'll be getting a set of SIR or CTR headlights oem.

Re: 98 DX EJ6 stock......now
swap came from Hmotorsonline... it was a complete swap from a 96-98 civic SIR.. and if you get a JDM obd2a b16a swap.. you dont have to worry about the vtec pressure switch.. the only things you have to do to your DX harness is add a wire for knock sensor and one for vtec solenoid... you'll also have to extend both your o2 sensor plugs and untape the harness and re-route your fuel injector wires. you'll also have a couple extra sensors that you can just tape to the harness and leave em there... there is one for the crankshaft sensor and there is one for emissions stuff.. just tape em to the harness and leave em.. other than that the swap is easy as pie..any more questions feel free to ask.
