ok well this is going to be the starter thread for my project civic hatchback. i will be picking up the car today from a friend.
alittle background on the car. 92 civic si hatchback with a ls/vtec swap. all for $2700. the car also comes with a victor x manifold, aftermarket fuel rail, n1 exhaust, sprint springs, and tokico blues. thats the good now the bad. car was broken into over 4 months ago. they broke the window (its fixed now) and stole the radio and tried to take the ecu. also the car was keyed before this (it had a sick $2000 paint job). after the car was broken into something happend and the car kicked forward one day on him and he hit his basketball goal in the yard and dented the front passenger fender. also the drivers side wheel bearing is going bad and the car is sitting on steelies (until i put my ls meshies on it). other than that the car is in good shape.
so far my plans for the car is to turbo it. Im buying a kit for it today as well for $1500. I also will be putting my ls meshies on it soon as i get 2 new tires for them. other than that i wont be doing much since i have a daily driver and this is a project for me. not only that but my first project.
here are the pics. as you can see the paint is keyed. mainly bought the car for just the engine. also alot of the moldings are missing and the stock spoiler is gone.

Re: new project civic (MAD ITR 55)
yeah it should be fun.
if any of you local guys know of someone that has some coner lights (stock or not) a carbon fiber hood, front passenger fender, or a rear spoiler (carbon fiber or stock) please let me know. also i need some molding around the front windows and windshield. hopefully i will get this thing running good by the end of the month.
