Default eklum's 91 4wd Civic wagon .

So last year i started a mission to **** my life up apparently lost two automobiles to carelessness on my part.
1990 wagon i had


i coulda rebuilt her but i couldnt afford the tow fines in time so i turned that one over .. here she was last seen at pnp in Fairfield RIP BABY!
crashed it bought this prestine civic sedan , like an idiot fell asleep at the wheel after leaving a party =

i rebuilt it and replaced damn n ear the entire front steering componets the day i get it running right a chp blurps me with out my license (even tho i had paper work saying i had my license) and that got impounded and i had to turn it over to avoid paying 1500$ in fines



im getting my license back near the end of the year and ive been coming across some money lately came up on this sweet thanngggg.



Its my mission to redeem my self by building a bad *** car so i figured this would be a nice start..swooped her from a tow yard ironicly a lien sale (just like my wagon!)
odm. read 234k kinda disapointed cuz i was told it was at 184k when i got home i discovered the ZC heart transplant in the engine bay so im assuming shes got alot of life left in her!



theres alot of play in the driveshafts swinging back and forth im gunna take a look for a busted mount or loose screws later on this week .

fresh meat once i slam it

resprayed + clear coat this time for easy cleannin

im lookin for a good price on Koni sp's and custom spring GC with extended top hats
i rocked koni/gc combo on the last wagon and loved it until somone shot my tire out driving at 40mph sending me into a curb ****ing my suspension to hell ( thats a different story )
needless to say the last year of my life sucked ***** my birthday was this past weekend and i vowed this year would be the best yet and so far... 4 days into it i got my dream car in my garage for under 1000$ fresh tires its lookin pretty good :D


As far as suspension goes like i said i plan on a super nice koni/gc setup , s/t rear sway , ex front brake knuckles converted to prelude size brakes , try to find a way for rear discs

Motor i plan on letting this ZC motor die out and im going to start a F22 sohc vtec build maybe light turboZZ
lookin for around 220whp 4wd

appearance wise im gunna rock the super old granny blue with neon decals for a while figure it could keep the heat off.




things to do --
Massive overhaul timing belt/water pump valve adj. spark plugs/wires.
flush /swap fluids
new cv boots
(not sure if its possible but lube drivetrain)
replace torn/worn mounts
recharge AC
Disconnect and loop the powersteering lines(cuz PS is for homoz and hoez)imo'z

thanks figure might as well so ill have a cleann meann running machine when time comes around.
i gotta find out if the d16a6 headgasket /timing belt/water pump is all the same for the ZC as u can see theres alot of oil leakage coming from the head.



im getting a few yards of that material not sure what its made out of looks like it will flow well with the rest of the interior im gonna use it to cover the head liner though see how that goes in acouple weeks.
