Default 9civichatch3 ~New Project Car EJ8~

Picked up this car this weekend from TN. What do you think?

Found a few problems. For starters it need brakes, tires, paint. Also I found out the lower ball joint on the driver side was held on by a lug nut.. Hope there are no more suprises like that !!!!





Yes, thats a VAFC II on a LS motor...its coming out asap !!











Bought:
New Tires
New Ball Joint
OEM Steering Wheel
Innovative Mounts
Brembo Blank Rotors
Honda Brake Pads
Ksport Full Coilovers
Black Extended Lugs
Spoon Style Mirrors (hate the big oem ones)

Soon
LS/Vtec
