Default Spontaneous123's 92 Civic SI Build

Have been wanting a 92-95 Civic Hatchback since my Freshman year of highschool and now that I'm a freshman in college who commutes to class, I got one!

Didn't have too many pictures of it before I did the recent upgrades, but I'm planning on documenting my build better now.

Purchased in Feb 2014

So far:
Upgraded suspension to Koni Yellows/GC 400f/350r
TYC OEM Style Headlights
Authentic JDM Clear Corners
GSR Front seats
Rear Strut bar(trunk) and DC Lower Tie Bar, Both present upon purchase
Polk Audio DB5251 Component Speakers
Alpine IDA-X001, $10 from friend
NRG Hub+Quick Release and Lock, Hub is from CRX, Friend gave it to me
Momo Monte Carlo Steering Wheel, Came on car
Upgraded Cluster/License plate/Tail Lights to LEDs
Osram NightBreaker headlights
New NGK Spark Plugs/Wires
OEM Mudflaps, Rear Emblem, Driver side B-Pillar Trim
Type R Rep Lip from Ebay
R134A Conversion
Gorilla Gold Spline Lug Nuts
New Clutch master+Slave Cylinder

Coming soon:
New wheels: Enkei 92
Waterpump, belts, Innovative Motor Mounts, Remanufactured Axles(O'Reilly), Rotors, Brakepads
New Exhaust(Rattling/Broken Weld atm)
Paint, which will be done after the car is more or less complete)

Will post updates as soon as possible! Still have to show pictures of interior but the plan is to just get it running properly so I can smog it since it's running a d15b and california has some annoying smog regulations.

Make sure you have anti-theft devices in place.

So my Enkei 92's came in early yesterday instead of Wednesday, so the shop installed those for me as well. I'll post some pictures of them soon, along with some interior pictures.

The car came with an Astra Alarm from the previous owner, along with kill switch. I installed my friend's Quick Release that he let me borrow, as well as the quick lock! Also live in a decent part of California so I'm worried, but it doesn't keep me up at night.
My mom also parks in front of me in our driveway so it can't really be taken anywhere! Living at home for college has it's pros and cons I guess; having two dogs also helps too.

I'm studying for my calc midterm so the pictures won't be posted until tomorrow. I'm doing my waterpump, belts, motor mounts, axles and alignment this friday or saturday!

Suburb of Los Angeles, San Gabriel Valley area! South of the rich area(San marino/Pasadena) so it isn't THAT bad. I've heard of thefts and all, but none from my friends or even their friends.
