Default Been with Ht for a while now but never got around to showing my ride....

My '96 honda gsr swapped civic.....its a work in progess. CIVIC WAS BOUGHT IN PAMPANO BEACH, FL AND WAS ALL RICED OUT, ALL THAT I DID WAS THE GSR SWAP, CF HOOD, AND INTAKE. SO I KNOW THAT RICERS BLOW BUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DONATE CASH...THEN DO SO CAUSE IM DEAD *** BROKE FROM THE SWAP.

well if you are strapped for cash you can pick up a pair of used lowering springs or coil overs and get ride of those rims *i know I read the previous post on how they came with them* but IMHO some of the major mods on your car goes as follows

-ALARMS =]
-engine running clean
-lose rims and tail lights - if anything you can even use like the OEM tail lights and maybe some used slips to save money
-lower the car

Everything else will fall into place but having a GSR makes up for those rims and lights

if you are strapped for cash, then you could always do these things that wouldnt cost you too much:

taillights: either go to a junkyard and find some oem style ones, or get some testors red transparent paint, and paint the upper half of them red, so at least they wont look soo "bling bling"

as for the wheels, why dont you go to a junk yard and find some oem honda wheels- i bet you could find a set for cheap and repaint them.

your cf hood could use a good polish/compunding

dude sell those wheels, there are horrible

selling those wheels will give you money to fix the rest of your car

get some ok 15s or 16s, stock hood, get rid of those foglights, get some stock tailights and lower that poor thing, and get some kind of front lip, 96-98s look naked without a lip, preferably a sir lip they look the best

GSR swap is good. The car is your canvas to modify so I will just say... OEM FTW. Good luck with your project man

no no no no no


dude youv got some bad taste, stay away from junk *** altezza tailights, cheap *** ugly headlights, and big wheels

its a waste of money, you may get more parts for less money when you buy cheap knockoff junk parts, but thats exactly what your car looks like, cheap, ugly, a car with a **** ton of junk parts isnt better then a car with a few well thought out quality parts
