Hello Honda-Tech

My name is Rylan, im a new guy here on the site. I have had quite a few different Honda's over the last 7 years.

My recent project is a 1993 Civic Hatchback, traded my quad for it.

Hopefully going to swap in a b16 this spring once the cold *** weather goes away. I am starting to collect some parts and get it looking the way I want it to, I think it's going to be a clean little car when im done. There is 0 rust on this thing believe it or not. It was painted 6 years ago, and no rust bubbles have came through yet.

Figured I would introduce myself here, and hopefully I will see you all around the forums!

Picture of it the day I got it:



Pictures of how it sits right now in my garage:

 

looks better without those wheels and lights lol. hope your swap goes well add picture updates as your project goes along.

 

looks like a fun revival!

 

Looks like you're off to a great start.

Welcome aboard.

 

haha i rather drive with those steelies than those 17's? any day.
Clean start

 

that has tons of potential man! do some upkeep on the paint, get some fresh wheels, a drop and you'll be good to go!

 

Looks like it's gonna be a fun project. Welcome!

 

Good project

 

looks like a real good start. what color is that I like it

 

Nice pics/project keep us posted!

 

Good project!
like the color

 

Paint and body looks good.

 

The picture with the wheels and lights is when he got it, since than he took those off and you get the pictures on steelies and no lights..

 

love the color.

 

Whoa that exhaust looks like the one in NFSU2 lol.

 

Welcome, and I have a feeling this will turn out nice.

Awesome shots on the current state..what were those shot with?

 

Looks like a Canon off of the reflexion.

OP, looks like an excellent start getting rid of the sub par parts. Body seems nice and straight. Gl with bringing it back!

As a side note, i'd paint the stock fog light cover area with SEM trim black paint like they came from factory in 92/93, as well as the center in the front bumper. Should help the appearance.

 

nice hatch, like the colour

 

This

 

Sorry about the long wait for a reply, I was a trial user and couldn't comment on my thread because it was moved to the appearance section.

I grabbed these pics with my Canon 30D and Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6. I also have a 1DMk2 and 70-200mm f/4L.

That is a very good idea about painting the fog light area and center bumper grill black. Would look alot cleaner. I just managed to pick up some OEM tail lights, and figured out why my instrument panel only lit up once in a while lol, turned out to be the dimmer switch.

Thanks alot guys!

 

Nice starting point, seems like your headin in the right direction. Throw the oem lights on like you are, some 15" wheels, paint the grill/fog holes, drop and lip, maybe a duckbill if you fancy. GL with it.

 

does that 1/4 panel have some work in it? the body line looks weird to me.

but regardless... nice whip! good start!

 

Exactly what I plan to do lol Ive had 17's before, however they are not meant to be ran on a Civic. 15's is what I will be getting.

It had the 1/4's replaced 6 years ago when it was painted. I removed the rear panels to peek at the insides of the 1/4's and they have been replaced. Both sides have the same body line. Might of been the angle that threw you off.

 

yeh it may just be the angle in it. non the less, good start!

 

My first ride was a 94 hatch, it was a turn key racer with itr motor from inlinepro. It was beautiful until a truck hit me at the light. Looks like you are on your way to a nice project and you have a good place to start to. Do you have any experience working on hondas?
