Picked up some oem SI carpet for cheap, hopefully it will clean up nice enough to be put in the hatch.

Motor is back from the machine shop! Crank should be back this morning. The entire engine is being blueprinted by a good friend of mine at Apex Motorsports, FL. Just need to order rings, bearings and ARP fasteners for him to start putting it back together. If anyone in the central FL area needs engine work done, give JD at Apex a call, he will take care of you and make sure its done right!

Thanks, I love your build! Another 6 months or so, hopefully Ill have my car to the point I think its "worthy". Just needs a little bit of touching up and fine details to personalize it.

What do you do? Holiday hours! Gosh. Christmas already? You sound busy. My problem is when I'm not busy, I'm tired. So I don't get much done!

You and me both! haha. I work for a company who sells aftermarket truck accessories, and I also own my own detailing business. So I stay pretty busy.

Dang, sucks that they don't sell aftermarket Honda accessories. Employee discount. Congrats on the business by the way, wish you success in everything you do and I'm excited to see how that carpet comes out.

By seeing seat rails holes, is it a 88-89 carpet? 90-91 seat rails have a rail in ''middle'' position, you might have to make new holes in the carpet.

EDIT: Ohh I can't see seat belt holes as well.

Well thats weird that you currently have 88-89 seats in your civic. If I'm not wrong, are they shimmed atm? I'm going only with the photo of the interior you posted in your first post, the mecanism way different than my old 90-91 ones.

Heres a photo of the seats I had in my old build, you can they the mecanism is different.
