Default My new project/daily drive/ drag car

So i decided with all the money i had to invest in a hatch. The car has been non-op for a 2 years and i decided to try to get her back on the road.

Im currently removing the turbo, the NOS, the exhaust, and replace them with stock parts to get it smog'd










Im still working on it so bear with me. My goal is to at least have it street legal before the h-t bay area meet in 2 weeks. Let me know what you guys think. this is my first civic so im new to alot of this. thanks

Well, with you being new to the whole Honda thing you are going to find out real quick that you eather DD the car or drage the car, show the car. You kinda need to pic one.

But good start. Are you keeping the paint?

I dont need new spark plugs, i just need the order they go on. Like some one told me i need to hook 4 to 1 and 3 to 2 and some sh-t like that.


as for the paint, i'll repaint it eventually, but im mainly working on having her run, and then motor work. We'll see how it plays out. My last car was a decent DD as well as a clean car. so thats mainly what im going for, but i wouldnt mind taking it to the track a time or two.
