well i got my car on 3/3/07 and this what it was looking like day one-

17" konig's, wings west front bumper, stock head lights, clear turnsignal lights, clear tails, short ram intake, full exhaust, b15b7 motor stock



trunk didnt shut all the way and couldnt open!


sold the rims, sold the trunk (without the hinges) sold the tail lights,and sold the front bumper all in the frirt two weeks.

got kyb gr2's for $30 for the front pair, neuspeed race springs for $50 for gsr (2" drop in the front and 1.75" in the back only dif between the gsr's and the set for the del sol is the del sol set drops you another quarter of an inch. )


here it is as of right now with the springs, oem front bumper, and 13" steelies


for performance- i picked up a short block b16 for $50 and at the same time a h23 long block with bent valves for $100 . im getting the b16 checked for tolerances, and honed and i got a b16 head with new seals, and a jg edlebrock manifold for $350

You know what Henry Ford said - "any color, so long as it's black."

Glad to see you dumped that aftermarket nose for OEM.

BTW, if you don't mind me asking, where'd you get those shocks? I just snapped a couple ^&*@#($&*( Tein seat locks and they're taking their sweet-*** time getting back to me with the part# to order. For those kind of prices I could swap the Teins off and give them all month to procrastinate a reply back to me...

 

Type R white. Or Taffeta white? Can't go wrong with a clean white honda.

 

hey everything is looking perfect.. i would paint the car FBP!

 

b16a block back from fresh hone-

I didn't know you could hone a block in that rusty condition, awesome! Good project

I love these too. H-T should have a forum for car builds like this one.

Good luck on the car, its looking nice. I'm gonna be starting one this summer hopefully another civic

 

It appears that there is still rust on the cylinders even after the hone?
