Default my very first build thread

well i bought a ef civic hatch last weak for 300 big ones the car is a 5 spd with 250k on it the moddle is dx. the first thin i did was rip out the interior because it smelled like a bum had been sleeping in it for 6 months lol. later i noticed there was a major leak in the weather striping that is why it smelled so bad. the car shakes realy bad when i drove it home yes i drove it home lol almost didnt make it. so i looked under the car and all the bushings are shot, same as the struts and springs.A friend of mine had an extra set of tokio blues with nuespeed springs he gave me to put on the car next is the dpfi to mpfi conversion, following that is a d16z6 with a si trany i am planing on restoring it and making a daily driver. Who doesnt like old school??hear are spome pic of the ef
