So me (red 96 civic turbo d16), one of my friends (2008 civic Si) and my brother (black 96 civic) were at my house installing my new ASR subframe brace, ASR 24mm swaybar, and type r rear lip so we decided to do a mini shoot

BTW the Si and my civic (red EK) are dirty lol....anywho here are some pics!

Yeah, thats the first place my eyes went to, probably because I have red EK similar to yours, with a tad bit of quarter panel rust. Mine will be fixed this summer.

the ***** like cancer....i had a spot about the size of a quarter on each side when i bought the car...so i fixed it up and it the job lasted for a good 2 years of being driven all year around and through our Canadian winters. Then on the third winter the rust like friggin exploded everywhere...then i turboed it, and stored it for the winter that just passed. so it been progressively getting worse lol

thanks man...first of all with a 24mm sway bar you pretty much need the subframe brace if you dont wanna tear your subframe...dont know if you have one yet but you should get one if you dont

as for the feel its Really agressive...My car is a full out track car without a cage that i use for my DD so for me its nice, but it might be alittle too much for someone using it for street aplications. It all depends on what feel your going for. But for sure it is a quality peice and improves the feel of the car by a mile
