Re: My 1991 RT4WD Civic Wagon Build Thread
last wash before i got some more looooooooong awaited goodies!!
finally got all my goodies so i can put new shoes on the wagon!! Skunk2 front camberkit, megan racing rear camberkit, and the Custom order 16" Motegi MR224's rebarreled to 16 x 9.5 -10offset and powdercoated frost white with crushed glass clearcoat
a few hours after the camberkits came in they were getting chopped up and custom fabricated for more camber and so the arm would clear the strut.
huge thanks to my good friend Ken Snipes for helping me out all night long getting everything fabbed, installed, and rolling my fenders
on and rolling, had too much camber in the rear and didnt like it much
finally took out alot of camber in the rear and put on my DA9 front lip
getting her all cleaned up for a meet
chillin in seattle with my buddy and his J swapped coupe
Pikes Market
Chilling with my buddies at a meet
At the EF reunion
Wagon wall!! there was a total of 20 wagons at the EF reunion
there are a few more things that i have done recently that i havent snapped any pictures of.. ill be sure to get them up soon enough

Re: My 1991 RT4WD Civic Wagon Build Thread
actually the mirror delete isnt JDM its USDM, the blockoff plates were an option from honda from factory.. i will be taking the other mirror off and putting fender mirrors on as soon as i can find the other blockoff plate (driver side is the hardest to find)
and the risers will be coming out. i lifted the hood because i was about to put a K20Z3 in but i changed my mind last minute and im going to be putting a J32 in instead
and yeah im stationed at Ft Lewis, this fkn state rains way too fkn much! its annoying

And the J is amazing. I love my 4 cylinder, don't get me wrong, but the extra cylinders does give it better torque and a nicer sound.
