///////UPDATES ON PAGE 3////////


Here's the story I picked up this 93 Si back in November of a friend. Flat black spray paint when i got her to use as a daily to store my s2000 away for winter, All along i have had plans to make a decent fun daily driver. I tore the car down the first day i bought it and painted a fresh coat of Mini Cooper Dark Silver Mettalic.

Since then she has been driven all winter and for the last remaining month of winter I will be documenting the engine bay shave beginning tomorrow, along with some goodies that ive been waiting to install along the way when we got close to spring weather.


How she currently is before the bay teardown. Lovin the winter bumper....


Cant wait to lose the missle launcher


Here's the bay before the shave...


Car was fully prepped and color changed, no short cuts


A little Honda love for ya

So that's why your room looks like a swap meet. Your welcome for the oil filter. What's up with the S2k turbo kit? Your selling it aren't you?

If there wasn't 3ft of snow in front of the garage I was gonna try and get tuned on Monday. They are saying mid to high 50's Oh well it's been parked this long 3 more weeks is no big deal.

Oh and the replacement oem rad support to fix that rusty bar that was on the car before.
I didnt get a pic of the one prior but if u pay attention to the pics above there isnt any lower rad support on the car cause we cut off the rusty one that was fabbed up.
