My 97 Civic Hx build
Hello guys posting this thread to keep track of my progressing build on my 97 Honda Civic Hx. I bought the car a little bit over a month ago with very few mods done to it. I was lucky to find it only thing wrong with it was it had pretty high miles but that wasn't a concern to me and that the wipers wiring was all messed up but with living in Washington I fixed that right away. When I bought it it was sitting on some function&form type 1 coilovers, still has its Hx wheels. Engine wise it has a D16y5 and the only thing changed was the no name headers. A couple interior things like what it looks like a eBay blue short shifter and ****. As well as a 5 panel rear view mirror, a pioneer stereo and a cheap hub with a aftermarket steering wheel. For the exterior he had blue Honda badges, si wing and a quick release bumper setup that wasn't usable lol. As of right now the only things I've done so far is change change out the suspension to some Ksports with dampening adjustment, took off all the stickers he had on the car replaced them with my own, fixed the quick release bumper so now I'm actually able to take off my bumper no problem, and also ordered some black Honda badges I put on also. That's it for right now but I have parts in the mail so I'll be back.

Nice Hx. I see your Y5 has a header (assume the cat was relocated). How's your mpg/lean burn? I've been contemplating doing the same (due to a cracked exhaust manifold) but weary about the side effects..
