Battery tray and battery reinstalled.
Brake booster & master, clutch master, line & slave, brake lines and finally fuel lines, filter & regulator installed.
What I consider to be a decent deal for a timeless wheel popped up on Facebook, so I jumped on em! 15x7 +40 CE28N in bronze, gonna order some 205/50's for em and all then decide on lug nuts.

Great build! I feel you on winter time. Mines sitting in the garage waiting on a new engine. No motivation LOL! Volks will look good on there.

Re: My 94 Civic EX - build thread!
Started putting the car back together Sunday.
Managed to get the brake master/booster in and bled. Went really smooth. Ended up having to purchase a reman master from oreilly. $85 i didn't wanna spend...
This awesome, American made skunk2 intake manifold has damaged threads on the throttle body flange, so i have to get the correct size tap and fix that. trying to find an inexpensive M8x1.50 tap thats not in a set.
After that, i think it's ready to fire up. Primed the fuel system already, had a small leak on my return line. Got that tightened up,then decided to call it a night. I took some video, but probably won't post/edit it.
The Video is a just a quick walk around, not much else.
and I also bought a trailer, I plan on taking the car to Humble Performance in Oklahoma to get tuned. Shooting for March.
I found a 2013 20' Maxey on Facebook Marketplace for a decent price, messaged the seller and made the deal. Paid $2300. I think its fair. Plus it looks cool behind my truck.
Earlier this month I bought a 2012 Silverado ECSB LTZ in black. Not a d-max, but it is a 6.0. No mods, probably wont do much to it aside from a tune from Justune. I did however pick up a set of weathertechs as well as getting the front side windows (factory matched) and windshield tinted ( "44 %" )

No changes, ive assembled a few things. had issues with the engine harness, so im ditching it and going with a basic non-milspec wire-worx harness. they quote a 5 week wait, kinda realllly sucks but it is what it is.

A friend of mine put up his Recaro Wildcat SR4's for sale, so my wife and I made the trip to get em Satruday. ive been eyeing this style seat for awhile from a seller on Instagram. I finally have em, im so stoked.
I tossed my original bumper bar because it was cut up and rusty. I figured with as many cars as I part out Id easily find a good condition one. That didnt happen, so I ordered a Mayhem Metal Works front bumper bar, thing is amazing. Pretty expensive, but craftsmanship is perfect.
Ordered the new WireWorx harness at the end of June and it arrived last week, got that put in and my car fired right up after priming the fuel system with no issues. I dont know whats wrong with the previous engine harness, but the builder isnt willing to repair it, so I just said **** it and bought a new one. I dont have any pictures from when I received it.

Re: My 94 Civic EX - build thread!
I took the car to Humble Performance in tulsa back in May and made 247/164 on their dyno. i have a few things i wanna do to the car in the future. Ill be ditching the hardrace out tie rods and buddy club RCA's, going back to OEM Moog stuff. Hoping to calm the car down on the streets as far as steering goes. Its a blast to drive, but somewhat unpredictable, and I believe its the tie rods and lower ball joints causing the issues.
Ive moved my focus to my turbo gsr build and my 00 EM1 resurrection... so, maybe Ill post a quick build thread on those...

Man, I can't stop looking at this color.
Personaly, it's the best combo, car + color. Even better than EK yellow.
Post some more pictures, great build.
