ok, so last week, i came across a real clean civic for $1100
5-speed
magnaflow exhaust up to the muffler(don't ask me why)
skunk intake

the a/c then went out, so the guy called me, and I asked if he could lower the price. Bought the car $800 cash and all i have to do now is change out the condenser and probably flush it, but yeah.

here's some pics:







I also plan on lowering the car later, so I bought a Tien camber kit and installed it this past weekend. Ran me about $170 plus change. I am also researching on the mini-me swap and was wondering if anyone who had it has any input on how it runs when tuned. I want a fun to drive car that's also reliable.

Also, if I were to buy the manifolds from the d16 motor, would they be able to bolt onto the stock d15 head?? I've been searching and reading for days now and haven't found anything saying about if the manifolds would fit or even be possible on the d15 head. thanks.

P.S.-If I posted in the wrong thread, please let me know. You can delete/move if you please

 

look in the faq for links about a mpfi swap. its pretty much what you are talking about.

 

cool, thanks!
i've read about mpfi but just wasnt sure if they'd bolt up no problem with the d15 head until i get the y8 head

 

yes d16 and d15 manis have the same bolt pattren for the exhaust and intake but the dohc zc intake will not fit

 

he's right. my d15b1 has a d16z6 intake manifold bolted to it currently (well technically not cuz it's torn apart for a head gasket job but w/e lol)

 

Sweet ride. Not a bad price.

 

Good deal.

 

Nice car man, I'm missing the trim on the passenger side rear quarter panel also lol.

 

nothing is better than 4th gens and bmx. is you bike covering a missing trim piece?

 

why yes it is...hahah >.>
my passenger side seat cable broke today, so now its kinda stuck in the reclined position....

guess this gives me a chance to look for gsr seats and do a seat pan swap...
I found this write-up, not so sure if it'll work with gsr seats, but if i dont find them, ill just get some old rex seats or w/e i can find

i have bad luck with seat swaps. i tried to put 93 prelude seats in my Si but my seat pan was too narrow for the prelude seats.

 

well, it looks like all i need is the cable for my seat to be properly working again...or i could just buy new seats anyways ^_^







anyone got this type of cable laying around??

 

wow, its been awhile since i've been on here. there's been a lot of changes to my car, and i'd like to share:
