well hello hopefully i can have the money to do this it's going to be slow till prob after january.

well i bought this car back in march in kinda a trade. it had a blow head gasket.
so i fixed the car and drove it for a month. well i'm from ct and live in ny. i was in ct with the car for a week. my wife came down in her car. my buddy's car craped out on him so he gave me $100 to reg my 95 civic (i'll have pics of the soon too)
so i let him borrow my civic. well 2 months ago him and i both join the army. well i fractured my hip and they discharged me. well was i was gone i let my parent use the car so it didn't sit. my wife won't drive another standard she has her car.
so i just got it back this weekend.

since i got it i took the apc sticker off the windshield and put my si lip on. i have to put my si back seats in i've had my si seats in it from the begining (one of the first things i did i think i did it before i fix the head gasket lol.

pix really suck...

and the stickers look like decals; you can remove them with your fingernails...
if any sticky residue is left behind; you can use Sticker-Shocker from vato-zone,
or water and a lil elbow grease...

 

they are sickers and they are old at that. It tooke me like 20-30 mins to get the "decal" of the windshield because it was all dryed up and all i had was a razors but i know better then to use a razor on paint. at one place i was working they had a striper that didn't take paint off and a plastic razor but i've never seen those plastic razors anywhere. i was hoping that being old there would of started to peel but they were put on good and straight so i'm not in a hurry they don't look TOO bad lol.

 

use the edge of a rewards card, (credit card) as if it were a razor blade, and apply goo gone, or sticker shock ect, and it will do wonders, but i think it will remove any wax, so reapply any wax when done

 

i'll try that with the credit card see honda-tech is soo smarts lol. hope to get pictures thursday of both mine and my wife's civic's

 

i just took some pics before the wife took off for school in her ej1

what no one has any input.
no one on honda-tech is going to either give me praise or try to kick me down??

 

taking if for inspection on Monday so i'm not going to work on it till then prob i have to pull my alt out of my neon and replace that but after Monday i'(hopefully shhh) fail for suspension and i'll have to redo my bushing and struts/springs) because they are BAD or i'm going to put the si motor in this motor is starting to smoke a little more then before i think i've been driving it too hard. what can i say i havn't driven it since April i'm rusty i tend to just "drop the clutch"

 

well she fail inpection so she siting at work till tonite when i'll drive her home( no sticker on windshield) i think i might just take her off the road and do her all up not sure yet i'm still talking to wife about buget i dont want to start a project and not have the money to finish it. but either way i'm going to work on her. i'm just hoping i can do my suspension as well has motor swap and bushing( they are what fail inpection)

 

so i tried to take my snow tires off the hatch and put them on my ej but i guess 13 are to small o well.

tomorrow i hope i can start to disasemble her.
question how do you guys keep the steering wheel usable but still pull the dash
i need to get use to this new "impoved" h-t

well i've got some pictures finally on my pc so here's some pics




this is what's going in hopefully i will be able to start in a couple of weeks most of this will take off after christmas.


my fisrt civic i had this or about 2 years didn't do anything to it mading wise but diff was a good car she had 322000 on the clock

 

so the front end is torn off i've started to take the motor out hopefully i can get it out tomorrow then i will start my wire tuck. i'm just going to tuck the wires this time when i ready to paint the car prob next year i'm going to pull the motor out and weld all the holes and sand everything smooth. i'll have pics up tomorrow. well got to go to sleep need to be at work for 9 tonight.

 

UPDATE!!
motor is out!!!! i've been trying to take it out for like 3 days somthing always came up like an hour after i get in and the garage just starts to warm up.

next step is to strip the interior so i can go about my wire tuck and swaping out the blue dash and panels for my black out of the si. i havn't look yet but i'm expecting an oem carpet new(not for dealer) will prob. run me close to $300 so after i take the sound stuff out i'm going to just bed liner the floor. not the walmart stuff either the real stuff reflex spray on. brand. it looked good in my buddy jeep. and it will hold up better then reg paint.
son helping he was a big part in this whole project

 

no one as any support??
good or bad?

 

well last night i started to pull my wires into the bay. i'm trying to find somewhere to mount my fusebox. i thin i'm going to do a little more research but any input is welcome.

 

so i decided to start with the pass side first and i'm seprated everything trying to stay oragnize and i'm worrying how the hell do you guys not extand every wire?? i really could use some insight. any thing would be helpful.

 

bump for a anserew because i'm going to start the wire tuck tomorrow i have 2 days off straiaght.

 

Post more pics, what plans do you got power wise?

 

for this build i plan just putting a si motor in then i'm going to look for a b and build a frankistian motor

this is where i mounted my fuse panel from the bay into the cabin.

this is before when i start and finish i will have a after shot.

 

well i finished the light on the pass side. i need to get the motor in so i can figure how much wire i need for the engine plugs. i started on the driver side prob won't finish that till after saterday, i took the dash off i need to finish taking the interior out so replace it with black and i need to figure out what pieces i need to keep and paint. i'll be able to clean more out of my storage unit. need to get a truck first though.

 

late christmas bump (didn't get much done at all was out of state but should be able to finish my tuck i just need to find a good place to get sum loom of some sought. to wrap wires up in.

 

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


finished the wire tuck of the lights now the only wiring i have to do is for the engine. i'm a little scared because i don't really know what i'm doing lol but i'll figure it out i am going to print up a write up i think can help. so we'll see then i can wire loom the engine wires. put motor in and she should be all good. if anyone from plattsburgh vt wanna come help me would be great just send a reply to this here and i'll get back at ya.
