Default Daily driver and weekend warrior - *zoops style* (EM1 and ED3 inside)

First the weekend warrior (EM1):





*Insert picture of bone stock, mint condition interior*









Then the newly acquired daily driver (ED3):











Specs on the EM1:

2000 Civic Si
104,000 miles
One previous [older] owner

Engine:
Spoon Sports carbon kevlar direct air flow pipe
Stock intake piping and airbox
Greddy 4-2-1 stainless steel header
Magnaflow resonator
RS*R GT2 60mm midpipe
Spoon Sports N1 60mm axle-back

Suspension:
Ksport Kontrol Pro adjustable coilovers (custom spring rates)
Ksport lower control arms
Custom autocross alignment
Skunk2 rear upper strut bar
Brembo blank rotors
Hawk HPS brake pads

Wheel and Tire:
Stock “Si wheels” - Kumho ASX 205/50-15 (winter set)

Exterior:
Honda OEM fog lights

Interior:
Security system

Miscellaneous:
DIY SCCA autocross numbers and letters
DIY interior headrest camera mount
ChaseCam SM30 triple cup suction mount

Specs on the ED3:

1991 Civic DX Sedan
119,000 miles
One previous [older] owner

Otherwise 100% stock

Both cars are in what I consider mint condition.. I wouldn't have it any other way. The Si was daily driven ever since I bought it, up until this winter when I decided I wanted a second car to run up the miles on. It's far from a garage queen though.. this is what it does on the weekends:











I've trophied in 5 of my last 7 events in a highly competitive STS area (no less than 10 STS drivers every race.. sometimes up to 20)

Visit http://www.rzoops.com for more info, pics, videos, and more

Thanks for looking

Awesome, man that ED looks MINT as hell with only 119K miles!!!

Wish I could find a daily beater like that (or an Acura TSX) so I could make my 240K mile GS-R into a track *****.

*edit* actually, you should paint those wipers on the ED with semi-flat black paint. Then it will look mint.

The Si needs the same treatment haha.. I kindof like the polished look of the wipers on the sedan though, it blends in with the silver trim around the windshield

Nah, they'll get painted I just picked it up like 3 days ago. Spent all weekend preparing it for winter (clay bar, wax, etc). The Si will get the same deal this weekend, but it probably won't look any better than the current pics ha

Canon SD600 point and shoot for most all of them

Borrowed my friend's Nikon D70 for the Si pics along the fence. I also have/have had Canon 10D and Rebel XT

Mint for midwest cars! Converting the DX to mpfi could be a good way to make it more peppy as well
