Yeah. It's manual or nothing for me. Autoboxes bore me to tears. It feels like the color has been sucked out of the world.

Great pickup! I told myself that I'd stay stock and only drop mine, clean the rust, etc. Then BAM! Too good of a price to let a B16 from a 00 Si go by. Keep it clean meng.

Just sold my wagon last night, so I'm putting some more cash into ED. Going to get her repainted the pretty baby blue.

But before I do that, I need to gather all of the other body pieces i need.

What skirts are the best fitting and looking for the sedan. 94-97 accord? Can you use those mud flaps too? And also rear lip?

I want to test fit those, before color goes on.

Alarm with keyless entry.
Get rear door handles and put them in place of the front door handles.
No locks except for the trunk.

Also, look into how to break into Civics/CRX with a standard school ruler.
Make a block off plate to protect your car from that.

Been working on building up the audio lately. And ive gone thru a few systems in the last year, a single 12, to a Transmission Line custom built 12, to a 6.5" Transmission Line, now I've got a couple of sundown SA-8's
Really need to get some cash together to get ED painted, but that's just time and money...

The first system that even bumped in there since 1990!
12" t-Line Tuned to low 50's

I lost the pix from when i did the deadener.
Darn.



Then I flipped the box, just to experiment. plus picked up a Bigger 12. On 600RMS my trunk lid was hatting me! I love t-Lines.


Built myself a little amp box hidden inside the lid of my seat.


Then my little 6" sub


This thing got down pretty good for being a 6


Well while im waiting for cash, i guess its time to start working on the Electrical.

Got a couple feet of DLO 2gauge. 2 runs of it will be more than sufficient for the future of this Cars Beating existence.

Started on the Terminals... I know. Im cheap and i'm Redneck. At least it works!

Marine Battery terminals, NAPA auto Special.


1/8" aluminum strap
I will eventually get some aluminum hardware to tig to the bracket, but this raw hardware works for now.

I was going to mount all the 2 gauge strate to the battery, but i didnt was too many fuse holders floating around my cluttered E-Bay.
