Default My SI build

i decided to buy my 3rd EF after the 2nd one was a flop. between 2004 and now ive had a EG Ferio and a DB8, but my heart were always into EF's so i sold the teg and bought the si. i picked up it up for $750 as a shell from a buddies dads paint shop. the interior is immaculate, the best ive seen. the only downside to the deal is the owner before me hit a curb or something and bent both of the control arms front and rear (hence the tires all off). i have a D16Z6 waiting to go in, i just need a few more things to complete the swap. ill have more pics in the days to come, here are some pics to get started, the first few are from when i bought the car and other pics of my past 3 cars.. enjoy ill keep you guys posted in the days to come while i bring this car back to life.

newer pics are on the bottom, if viewed please bump, thanks


















**** thieves. rip ferio



the teg.

My_EFsedan , are they hooked up to a switch or running off your corner lights? I found a clean set at a local junkyard that im going to have to pick up...

To the OP...Good luck on your project. Looking good so far.
