The Project

91 civic 4dr. dx with d16y7 swap.

The Goal

Turbo it and keep it stock looking as possible

ok i bought this car about a year and a half ago right when i got it i put in si hatch seats, egay coilovers and knockoff mugen rnr's also threw in a cd player. here she was.


polished the pant and came out pretty nice



then i blew the stock d15b2 shortly after the mpfi swap and picked up a D16y7 with 40k miles for 200 bones.


This car had really put me through hell and i thought i was done with it when i picked up a crx for $500 but i ended up wanting to keep the 4 door and turned around and sold the crx for $900 and got rid of my wheels i also got rid of the egay coilovers worst ride ever btw and picked up some tein basics from a member off here so much better

and well here is the car as it sits now



'dont mind my ghetto intake my other one kept grounding out on my battery

Samuel L Jackson "It'll get ya drunk!"

My brother works for a Coors Light distributor, so I HAVE to drink it sometimes.

Good luck on the sedan man, and 16.1 on a y7 sedan is not bad at all.

 

Nice man

 

the sedan looks good mine will look something like that.

edit: if you want to get drunk drink colt 45
