An EM2 story...
If you've ventured this far, I want to thank you. I know I don't have a flashy title, but, I wanted this to be reminiscent of me.
This thread will be ongoing, as I do not plan to complete this series of modifications until approximately June 2009. I am for the most part pretty private and do not share my ideas with other individuals. With that being said, this will be a little different, as I don't plan on letting anyone (ok, not everyone, but a large majority) know what is in store. I am sorry, but I hope picture of my previous series of modifications will make you want to come back and see what I am up to.
A little bit of background on myself and my 2001 Honda Civic. I purchased it brand new in 2001, swapped out the D17A2 in 2002 for a K20A2, along with many other things. I'm a full time student, employed full time and a husband first, before I work on my vehicle.
If you have any questions, please ask, but I must warn you, if your question can be answered by using the search function, I will not answer it. This is such a great tool, and I feel it should be utilized as often as possible.
On to the pictures of how the vehicle looked until my oil pump failed...
This is the oldest, full picture of that car I can find.
Before this, I did have TE-37's, which are still probably my favorite wheel.
To this..
To Dyno time..

Stay tuned!

The car is epic, for lack of a better term, and I can say from experience that the owner is as dedicated a person as any, to making it great.

Saturday, bud.
You're more than welcome to swing by, as we've got a spare bedroom.
