Default My Car, Almost Done!!!

Started out as a 95 dx with 85k, going in is a 94 b18b with a t3/t4.


Day one







with oil and coolant line attached

with drop shop ic, i had to cut out 2 inches of bumper support to squeeze it in there

as it stands now

what else:
1 gen dsm bov
uberchip with a bad *** map from Jon at the drop shop
3 inch downpipe and exhaust
magnaflow turbo muffler
dsm 450's
some del sol 14's
mani and ic both by Jon at the drop shop


hoping to be a high 12sec sleeper on slicks. only exterior stuff might be clear corners. i wanna kill that stupid pin stripe and maybe paint the door moldings, handles, and license plate holder red, no yellow, uhh i mean white
i figure the only things that may give me away are the ic and exhaust
comments, suggestions???
Thanks
Burke

anybody got any ideas on the best way to paint that stuff??

isn't your oil line supposed to be gravity based...like wouldn't the way you have it kind of stop it from flowing right?

not tryin to be an *** or anything jus wanna make sure somethin doesn't happen to your motor.

the oil feed line (the stainless line with earl fittings) is teed off the high pressure side on the oil pressure sender. The big fat tube coming out the bottom to the oil pan is the oil return line and is gravity fed.
the other two lines are coolant lines because the turbo is water cooled as well.
i hope this makes some sense. and thanks for the concern

I'm jelous. I have a white 94 DX, but along time ago I bought a [cough]body kit[/cough] and threw away my stock bumpers and skirts. Now I am stuck until I find a ricer with a white 92-95 Civic that wants to trade. I want my car to look like yours except I might paint my IC black to hide it. I have a kinda sleeper exhaust too.
