i spent a good 3 hours yesterday removing the shitty fake wood trim the prev. owner put on. i kept the oem trim on, but it looks a little better without the doubleside tape wood trim on the car. but i really want to go black interior soon.

I have an 95 Civic Dx
It was my moms she bought it dropped
on Neuspeed lowering springs and an Ek front end conversion
she jst finally gave it to me
im taking it in class to do body work on it and paint it.. gona put the original front end because the front end saggs since it has frame damage and ima fix it and have it straight
i got these wheels for her wen she had it their Rota Group N1r's probably polish and clean them up since they dont make them
hoping in the long run swap out the tranny and once im at it
do a b16 swap if the money allows me
also planning to get full ground control suspension

this is how she sat before i starrted doing body work







havent uploaded other pic of how it sits of rite now.

Nice thread y'all got going here. I'm new to the site and I've seen ALOT of nice work on your babies. and I say that because that's how I treat my "Nena" like a baby ; ) . I know for sure I'm not the youngest, but who said you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks...and he first one who calls me old i'll kick your A AAAAhahahahahahaha lol . well here's my 'Nena" 1990 DA9 Ls I bought her a year ago and I will not take credit for the b20 swap she already has, but I have put in some wrench time in her.I have a b16 head waiting in my shed to be put together and placed in her so that I can rock the "crvtec" I'm planning on N/A build. I am learning as I go along and I thought this would be the perfect thread for me to join being that I already have a "BUILT. Not bought sticker on my baby ; )

when i first got her...



bone stock b20..


a little love to the rear..



and a little love to the front...



Can anyone help me out and tell me what year b16 head i have ?

thanks for your response...I have another question guys being that some or most of you have done engine swaps , since the b16 head I have is OBD0 is there really any difference if I convert to OBD1 or should i just leave it OBD0? I just want to get the head on and get a feel for the vtec. thanks

the head has nothing to do with converting obd1. If you convert obd1 you need a obd1 dizzy and obd1 ecu. removing the resistor box and injector are optional. I would recommend converting obd1 because its less hassle with wiring up the vtec and what not. If you know anyone that can chip an obd0 ecu then go for it but i would highly recommend converting obd1.
