yeah i kind of figured that the buddy club seat rails were not going to fit. cause i also have been searching for some ultra low position seat rails. but no luck in finding it yet. the only company that do have seat rails for 88-89 civic hatchback would be corbeau. i had to modify my seat rails in order for my seats to fit.

jackieeeeezzzzzzz. my opinion is keep the ls tranny. .a} it.s ur dd. .so betta gas mileage. b} the tq thing. .longer gears will help the driveability of wheelspin wont be spin n shiftin w no traction. .jus toss a lsd n her.

so i had to haul the car out to my friends shop to finish the work and have some things changed and look into my shift problems..




he made me a new bracket for the engine mount to try and help the motor sit a little better (which it did). also why it was there he fabd up an adjustable trac. bar since using the oem was not an option.




after that was all done we put the car back on the ground and i had read something about the clutch pedal braking at the pedal assemly, sure enough mine was destroyed. pulled the dash etc. pulled the assembly banged it around a little put some good welds on it now the clutch pedal is able to fully do its job..

only problems im having now is some sort of horrible shaking when the car gets up to speed.. only thing it could possibly be is axles.. to look down at them in the engine bay they are binding up, im thinking the integra axles im using are not the correct ones... seat rails coming soon... and btw ill thank marc at works aero/ defcon for helping me out big time with this car
