COUPEDUP -- 93' EJ1 #0069 -- I miss summer...
Been around since 01'-02', joined in 03'
I don't post as much as I used to when H-T was all tech/no BS
To start...
I am a certified Acura mechanic and have done all work myself in my garage or at work. Been working on Honda's/Acura's for almost 10 years and started when I was 17 working on motor swaps and custom turbo kits in the earlier 00's.
Never finished my first H22a CB7 Accord project back in 2003 before moving west for work in 2006.
After owning beaters and my 05' Suzuki GSXR 750. I wanted another built Honda. Always loved Coupe's.
On to the good stuff.
I am skipping over all the old build pix, but I will share some brief details and things were changed over quickly.
General info:
After almost a year of searching and waiting -- Purchased in October 2009. ALL STOCK 280,000km's but MINT body condition for $2600
-1993 Civic Si R81 #0069 haha =cP
Slowly but surely..... Back in 09'
-GSR Rear disc conversion
-ITR front/rear sway bars

...then Summer 2010:
-94' model JDM GSR swap
-15" x 6.5" +45 Racing Sparco NS-II's on 195/50R15 Bridgestone Potenza RE-11's.
Currently looking like this:
Pix from over the summer.. this was posted in the Ej1 group thread aswell. Never bothered to throw it in the general mix. Copy-PASTE BAM!
^^ yea. that's me looking like a dork in the Rage shirt. =cZ
