Re: gnxpros' 2000 Civic coupe build
Well, I picked up my first ek coupe a couple weeks ago. I had sold it to a local a couple years ago. He sold it to another local and they wrecked it. I bought it back for $250 and parted it out, sadly.
What it looked like before, when I had it the summer after high school. Had 104k when I parted with her. Was a 96 I fully converted to 2000 spec.
When I found her last month.

After scrapping her, I picked this up. 1999 EX power everything, abs, mudflaps,floormats, all the options. 170k, needed some work when I picked her up but, she's already up to par after a week. Lowering springs, wheels, buffed headlights, coupe grill, fixed tie rods previous owner installed on the wrong sides, replaced a broken out window, and cleaned up the interior, etc. Oh and I paid $500 for it

Im unemployed and broke. Buying and fueling a Pilot is out of the question, even a CR-V would be difficult.

Finally cleaned up the garage so I could tuck away the coupe for winter.
Starting to clean up the bay even more.
Also, my buddy took fixed up my ITR LSD transmission for me. Cleaned up the sleeves and replaced 5th synchro .

It takes a million years to edit, resize, and post these pics and it they still turn out grainy and look like ****. About to say f*ck it and make a build thread on Facebook.

At least you can actually say your car is monster trucking lol looks
Kinda dope I'd drive it i wouldn't go knocking off in the woods, but
it's definitely understandable for snow

Yea, it's gonna be a harsh winter up here in the NE. Naturally, I had to take it on a trail I used to take my CR-V on to "test it's capabilities"

Re: gnxpros' 2000 Civic coupe build
Im a very detailed person, every little detail has to be right on my cars or it drives me crazy. Its a curse and a blessing at the same time. Definitely a blessing when it comes to building a car, though.if I can figure out how to resize my images without them looking like ****, Ill probably keep this thread going.

Took out the dash, carpet, and rest of the front interior and boxed it up.
Removed the SRS computer "shelf".
