Default New addition to the family

1989 Civic dx with 260.000km's. I picked her up for 500 canadian and planned on using her for a winter beater but after owning it for only a day I think I might bring it back to life and build an all motor (ls/vtec) machine. Besides the typical Honda rust it's in fairly good condition for an 88. Pics.




THe beast

Oh, that engine bay looks so sad. Throw a D15 VTEC in it and have some fun!

At least a D15 VTEC, I'm use to driving a Turbo CRX in the warmer months so you can imagine how slowwww this feels.

Hahaha...

This is what happens with me and all of my cars. I pick them up and plan on keeping them stock. Then I start thinking about JUST doing some suspension work, then a motor swap, then engine build, turbo etc...

It's a never ending cycle, as you know. Just give into the force and start building a sleeved LSVTEC that will hold 600hp. lol

Anyways, nice car
