Well I bought a 2000 em1 civic si for 350$ it was pretty ratty no bumpers cracked rim three flats had all this purple and gold trim and wire loom it was freakin ugly so that was the first thing I removed it also had cf hood and front fenders but the fenders were dry rotted and all the bolt holes were gone. I also had a 97 ex for parts so I used the trunk since the si had holes from a stupid space ship wing front fenders and door panels. I plan on it looking as stock as possible and keeping b16a2 and sc1 tranny but im going boost im gonna try and post pictures of it then and what I ha e done this is going to be a build that is going to take a few months so bare with me

 

 

 

Yea so it was preety bad bit I got it goin the way I want it. im goin to have the engine built and tuned at cnr performance here in baton rouge La. I want to daily drive it if need be but I also have two other vehicles so thats not biggie but I want it fast and I want to keep the b16

 

Well, so far so good. At least you have it rolling again.

 

Yea thanks it was a pile of s#!"

 

Pretty.





eH.

 

Looks good so far

 

I need a oem tach geez these things are hard to find I broke the little pointer off mine tryn to get the stupid little white faces off I got the rest but effed that one up so I need a new tach

 

Well bad new I spun a bearing took it all down in the shop and it looks like the #3 rod journal had a metal eating beaver chewing on the crank its screwed time for a whole new engine overhaul or new motor

 

Can I get that STR wire cover?

 

Lol im not just goin to drop my project

 

I meant can I buy it

 

I mean no lol not to be rude but I like it

 

Oh.

Yea I agree the hood is crap but it was on there and I like the lights but no im not gonna rice it iut I have been dericing it lol

 

fyi those headlights scream rice, very tacky and ugly......they must go, oem is the way to go with lighting, always.

Preety nice build thread you've got going here.

However, before we restore the car, let's please restore the grammatical error found within the thread title. Not to be mean, but its a pretty big error, sir.

 

Luv to see the build compete

 

Ok so how do I edit the name of it

 

Im working on it as much as my funds let me. Me and the family just moved so that put a little stall in the plan but I will get rolling on it again soon

 

You can get some money by selling me your STR wire cover.

 

Whats so special about it?
I like it cause its shiny
