My name is Justin(obviously), I've had a few EF's over the last couple of years, just decided to join finally.

I picked up my latest EF hatch last week,

Virgin, Stock d15 5 speed. 289,xxx and counting daily.

Here are a few pictures of it.











Mechanically it only needs the ball joints, and a valve cover gasket.

Cosmetically it needs new door glass on both sides(both windows have gouges in the same spots on the inside, is this a common problem/easy fix?) It also needs Si front seats to match the rears. I would like to lower it within the next week or two and get a nice 15"/16" wheel and tire combo as well. Finally the hood needs to be repainted unless I can score another one cheap, it has a pretty good amount of surface rust on the nose of it.

That's about all I can think of for now.

 

Go with 15s

Seems like a solid.start

 

I've got 15s on my CRX and I wouldn't put anything larger on.

Make sure to jump on any rust before it gets worse.

 

Body looks straight

 

Thanks guys, I'm averaging 38 mpg right now and loving it. My motorcycle gets 60mpg and my other car gets only mid 20's so if it's not 65+ and sunny I've been driving only the Civic anymore. I'm not complaining though.

 

Welcome.

 

Welcome. Your car seems to be missing quite a few important things, though.

First, you need to get at least two "Shocker" finger sticker things and put them on your car. Second, you're definitely going to need to get a tow hook or two, third, you're going to need to talk about "JDM" every chance you get, even better, get some stickers that say how much you love JDM.

Just messin' man.

What is your other car?

 

I own a vinyl decal company so number 1 and 3 should be super easy for me. Number 2 I'll search eBay for because all of the best parts come from there.

My current "other car" is a dodge spirit that I picked up for a winter beater, and the Lady in my life drives a 97 325is.

 

Can u print stickers?

 

Print, like bumper stickers? No. Cut vinyl decals and die cuts only.

 

Lol yeah that's what I ment I have some pics id like to get made into vinyl decals

 

Shoot me a pm with the pictures and details I'll let you know what we can do.

 

welcome to the family

nice hatch man keep it clean and stock

 

Thank you, I plan on keeping it clean. Just hoping to buy wheels soon!

 

did you get the gloves and cd withh the car? if so great buy

just kidding

i to picked up my ef two weeks ago,just as stock as could be. whats a good wheel and tire size to consider?

 

I'm considering 15x7-8 or 16x7-8 currently. Not positive on offset just yet.

 

16s are too big bro

 

That's a matter of your personal opinion. Not fact. I'm not here to debate my personal opinions. Thank you for expressing yours though, bro.

 

Welcome, I would say 15-16 inch rims will do just fine. In the end it is your car right? Post pics when you get your car new shoes!

 

Will do, I have my 1995 dodge spirit up forsale on CL right now. Whatever that sells for will be my budget on wheels/tires. Unless I get lucky and somebody offers to trade me some nice wheel/tire combo plus a little cash for my car.

 

Craigslist does wonders, that's how I found my little CRX running w/clean title for 500$

 

Paint looks really good for a car with almost 300k!

 

I am not going to get to specific, but "Attitude" will get you nowhere on these forums. I would take a lot of things said with a grain of salt. Read and search, and remember google is your friend. Welcome to Honda-tech, good luck with your build. JDM!

 

Great car to start with. Beat of luck wit it. IMO 15" rims 205/50r15

 

Attitude? I'm not sure I follow.... I'm not posting here for acceptance or anything along those lines, simply sharing my recently acquired hatch with the community. Not everybody will like everything I do with this car, and that's okay.

Thanks everybody for the compliments. It's about to roll over 290,000 and I've been averaging 39.xx mpg, almost 450 miles per full up.
