figured this would be a good way to introduce myself, my name is jordan, i've worked on many of my friends honda builds, then cause on and decided it was time for my own project. at the time, i was driving a 2001 nissan sentra, my aunt gave the car to me for free as a graduation present and because she bought a new car. 61k on it, mint. at the same time, a friend of mine had a 99 ebp si, that needed alot of love. he was gettin sick of putting in money so long story short i ended up trading him the sentra for the si. heres how i got it

99 epb em1
jdm b18c with papers 40,000 miles from jdm engine depot (so real mileage is anyones guess)
kyb gr2 with hnr springs
apexi ws2
nrg tech quick release and wheel
few other goodies

the bad:
motor wasnt hitting vtec, needed some body work, and alot of love.

on to pictures

when i got it (hood latch was broken so previous owner used hood pins, cheap autozone hood pins)






so about a week later, off a few friends i got myself a hood latch, fender, hood, new fogs, new vtec solenoid, rewired the oil pressure switch, new clutch, energry suspension shifter bushings,











then we got hit with a snow storm. the si did not like that


so while she was sleeping the storm off in the garage, i got around to starting a little tuck, and put on some new ngk plug wires, plugs, and a cap and rotor.



today i gave it a good wash and wax because it was a gorgeous day



plans
wheels (havent figured out what i want yet)
function and form type 1's
over the winter im gonna do all the body work and get it sanded and prepped. then send it out to get a fresh coat of epb
blox intake manifold
omni 68mm throttle body
better intake system
310cc injectors
ctr cams
aem cam gears
rmf header or replica depends on the budget
tune
call it a day

i know its nothing crazy, im 19 and dont have the biggest budget right now, so its gonna be a slow build. all positive/negative comments and suggestions welcome. thanks for looking!

 

You may want to edit out those license plates on your pictures, bud.
