This is my build thread, it might not be the most exciting build thread due to lack of funds, but its mine. here it goes

picked up the car around aug 07, and was in really good condition from the get go, I'm just trying not to mess it up lol


Slapped on some GT3's that were on my dc, they were 16's, a little to big for my taste so i sold em


then grabbed some si's for pretty cheap


Then sold the si's to buy the EF FR radiator lol


then it was time for a new heart....


so I went with a ZC sohc vtec from HMO, installed a SK2 cam gear, y8 IM, obx header, p28 w/skunk2 program


then found a really good deal on this, used, but in perfect condition


then came this.. FR EF radiator


So this is where the bay is at now, not too bad


next step is to put these on after I get some new drilled/slotted rotors and new bushings, I also have SIR front brake assembly that I need to install, Im lazy


Future plans
- Y8 hydro tranny w/lsd
- go-autoworks turbo set-up
- EF8 front end
- new paint
- Work Equip 01's

nice and clean start...good job

 

thanks for all the positive comments! next will be the zc hydro tranny with ACT 6 puck sprung clutch. I will be using Hush22 Performance cable to Hydro mounts for this, Hush22 Performance is an up and coming shop out of AZ.

thanks for the positive comments, very nice build you got going on man

 

not a huge mod, but a little something for now.. iceman intake

 

wire tuck and you got a clean rex

 

^agreed. its so simple yet nice and clean.

 

Goos start.

 

nicenicenice ftw

 

I had to come in here with this title. My crx has me livin check to check but I wouldn't want it any other way. Looks great man!

 

i agree crxs are worthing being poor over!! i would never go broke over my civic

 

ef+sohc zc= fun combo on a budget
i had a red ef hatch w a sohc zc from HMO as well and it was one of my favorite cars i have driven

 

well, shorted something out the other day.... radio cuts off when i turn on light and the temp guage goes up to hot.. when i press the brake the temp guage goes up and the radio cuts out for a second. WTF is really going on

 

let me know how those turbo kits hold up. Seem to have nice prices. are the manifolds built strong?

 

Shorts FTL! Check everything to make sure nothing is grounded that shouldn't be. What were you doing when the short popped up?

 

Same thing happened to my car, my battery needed charge.
Try charging it.

and nice build.
