Yea its true what these guys say. Paitence is the key.

 

Im sure it is.

 

theres also the point i reached where i felt as if i didnt connet with the car no more either.

 

you guys talking about selling your cars because you run into problems with them need to realize everyone runs into problems when building a car. having the patience to work through those problems and finish the project is what separates a nice ride from a half finished jalopy.

 

^^well put

 

True indeed.

 

james was there when i tired to get a lot done in a short time and i ran into issue after issue. it was pretty gay. i wanted to get rid of the thing then but i didnt. i got rid of mine due to me not feeling the connection. it sucks.

 

Yeah man, everything you guys are saying is true. I myself have a few problems with my car but I know that once it is done it will feel so good. I have quite a few bypassed,cut, and loose wires running underdash that will be such a pain in the *** to sort out and theres tons of little problems that just tick me but I cant give up, I have to pull through. After all, its what a build is about.

 

Yooo Jeff so when's the meet/bbq!?!?!?

 

 

hey sqUAD

 

Whats up with my post getting deleted?

 

sounded baller to do it all at once... we all defiantely saw that lots of little details can easily be missed when doing such a thing though.

 

^ True. Ive been buying parts little by little to the point that I am beginning to forget what Ive already purchased.

 

Forget the parts that I buy, now thats a problem Id like to have.

 

idk charlie....lets get something rolling for june? i know i have a spot to stay more or less so i'll make a weeken d thing out of it.

 

Lol. I have those big tupperware containers all around the place. My girl always stubs a toe here and there so I cant "technically" forget the parts I have. Although I do have stuff in the cupboards that I do tend to be absent minded with. On another note I called my body guy to see if he can weld the quarters in for me. I'll know if its possible either tomm or tuesday. Im already looking for a new hatch to buy. I havent even put my Stark's on and I dont like them so Im looking for some black SSR Type C's. Add that to the fact that I still havent decided on what cams I want to throw into the new motor setup. Uhhhh. Im back to writing part numbers.

 

Would any of you guys happen to have a spoon style spoiler laying around you guys want to get rid of? I really wanna get the bys but I wanna just have something on there for now it looks really plain and boring. I don't have enough $$ for the bys at the moment.

 

have any of all have neuspeed race springs on there hatch? hows the drop?

also any pictures would be great and did yall take the dust covers off

 

dont waste your money if you want something different. i use to do that ****. i wasted a lot ask james. he knows.

 

Im looking for a stock spoiler so maybe if you want, we can trade? I dont know the brand, the fitment is not that great but its not bad. Its also got a the 3rd brake light (LEDS, pretty nice). My internet is so slow I cant load photobucket otherwise Id post pics. Not trying to push it off on you or anything but since you asked if anyone has it, then I might as well let you know.

 

^^ yeah man if you want to trade im down to trade. PM me and let me know when your free this week i will take a ride up there. Good looking out man.

 

I found another hatch! White and local. Im about to drive out and check it out, auto but Im gonna swap it over. Jesse, you better go to IA if I do all this. That goes to you too Pancake.

 

just dropping in to say "hey y'all"

life is still good, and i still miss my hatch a ton. not to mention i am having transmission woes in the Si....

 

Damn bro. I havent seen you post in a long while. But on a personal note, I know most of yall remember all my talk about quitting and etc. I'll admit, my build had me flustered. But after thinking about my situation I realized something... I love this ****. So as most of you know, my last hatch got hit in the rear driverside quarter. So I boiled it down to 3 options. A) Rebuild, B) Buy a new hatch or C) Get out of the game. I took on a whim and went with option B. I havent name it yet so here are some pics...









Stats are: 1993 DX, 3 previous owners, clean title, 270k miles, automatic.

Im in love with this car. Ive never driven a stock civic so it was like a new world to ride in a car that had no problems. It needs paint and a little sanding in the usual rust spots. Nothing too serious. Im looking to have it done in time for IA.
