What's up everyone just picked up a 94 dx hatch for a daily driver. The plan is to keep it a nice daily driver that's tastefully modded with some aftermarket and mostly oem parts... i'm keeping the motor stock since it runs so great and is amazing on gas! The ac is ice cold also lol, on to the few pics i have so far... will get more tomorrow.



Dc lower control arms with new oem bushings new oem hardware for the lca's and koni/gc suspension. I also have front and rear gc extended tophats, new oem front lip, oem floor mats and a spoon shiftknob that isn't in the pic.



I took these wheels from my Da integra that's been a ongoing project for while and sitting in a garage in pennsylvania lol



Hopefully tomorrow if it's not raining i'll put the suspension and wheels on and paint before july

sorry to hear mrevnn,

nice to see someone new in the thread. How is everyone else doing today?

So i decided to stick with my original plan and boost my d16z6, I already have most of the part i need for turbo.

Also looked at the horsepower different from swapping a b18b1 into my car and just boosting my D16, and i can get more power at about the same cost. Plus my D16z6 only has like 25-30k on the motor.

I really am going back and forth between swapping a B or bosting the D and to be honest i cant make up my mind. **** sucks.

How much power are you looking to make?
How often do you drive the car?

car is daily driven and looking to make 220-250 on boost w/ stock d16z6 and if its NA its going to be stock.

im sure that im going to go with the boosted D16z6, now the question is if i wanna keep the ac.

people say keep it since it daily driven but i really do NOT want a cluttered engine bay. i'll keep you guys posted on my decision.

Boosted D is it. Just ordered my intercooler piping and Bov. Going to see if I can use my old downpipe, if I can then all I need is fuel pump and I'm good. As far as ac goes I'm still not sure.

If its a daily and your on a budget id say do the LS. Then later you could just throw some boost on that.

im sure its a less hassle to boost then to take out a motor and put another in. he doesnt want to do anything with cars at his gf place where he lives and my house where everything normally gets done at is packed with my non-running pos cars.
