Getting my 90 Civic back on the Track
I needed to get back in a ef hatch so i sold this
and i took a 6 hour round trip to pick up this
its a 1990 Honda Civic hatchback
b18a1 swap with a fresh head rebuild
ground control coilovers
dc header
skunk2 exhaust
6 point roll cage
5 point harness
the car does have some body damage but im fine with it
the car was clearly a old track car and my goal is to get her back out there.
i started simple and cleaned the engine bay
some more pics
I started cleaning the interior. i still need to remove the rear seats
repainted the front bumper and adjusted the front coilovers
repainted the trim and rear bumper. also new jdm bandaid and hood bra
aaannnddd new wheels. Avid 15x8 +25 wrapped in 205/50/15s
the rear is so high because one of the allen key screws on the coilovers is seized so i get to drill it out next week and replace it. also working on getting a new windshield and a lower ball joint.

Re: Getting my 90 Civic back on the Track
May I suggest a different size/ offset for the wheels. They don't look like they will do justice on a track. Go with 949racing wheels or something similar. I think 15x7.5 would do just fine without looking "stancey"
