Default My Road to Honda Day August 2013

Hey I'm making this post to show my plan to get my 97 Civic DX ready for Honda Day next year. For the most part I have a layed out plan on what upgrades and work I'd like done to my civic. The only problem is even after months of research I'm debating an engine swap due to how much it costs, I know most people with D-Series swap it or throw a turbo on it. I've decided to go all motor weather I'm running my D-Series or if I pick up an H22 or B Series. So far whats set in stone is....

Summer/Fall 2012: I'll focus on repairs, and the only major upgrades will be suspension.
- KONI: Sport Shocks
- Progress: Rear Sway Bar
- TEIN: Tower Strut(Rear & Front)
- Blackworks: Racing Tie Bar - Billet Rear

Spring 2013: Starting off the new year I'll go ahead and decide if I truly want to an engine swap based on where I sit with my income and money saved. No matter what engine I decide to run with I'll go all motor and add a few upgrades under the hood and cosmetically.
- (Optional Engine Swap)
- Weapon R: Neo-Ti Finish Secret Weapon Air Intake
- Weapon R: Stainless Steel Racing Headers
- Spyder: Chrome CCFL Halo Projector Lights
- Notto: 5k HID Conversion Kit
- Seibon: Carbon Fiber EVO Style Hood
- Midori Paint Job

Summer 2013: This will be the final stretch until Honda Day, I'll finish up with a few interior cosmetics, then decide if I want more flash with some white - Rota's or some more performance with a new exhaust system.
- NRG: Steering Wheel(Green)
- Mugen: Black Shift ****
- All Password:JDM Engine Dress Up Kits(Green)
- Set of White Rota:Slips or Greddy EVO2 Exhaust System

Please comment on your likes and dislikes, I'll post pictures and update my journey as I go. Unfortunately I wont have anymore progress until august 2012 due my financial situation. Thanks for reading, Chris.

If the build isn't starting until the fall why are you posting this now? Right now there no tech question being asked here.

Create a new thread when you have build pictures to share or when you formulate specific tech questions.
