Bought new civic
I wrecked my 99 Ex but just recently bought a 1993 Civic DX hatch. No pics yet. But anyone know where to get cheap side markers? I tried eBay but they have them for like 7.95 plus 14.00 shipping...

I'm about to go take some pics right now and post them when I get back on.
Here is a list of things I want to do with the 93 DX Hatch in no order:
Smoke amber side markers (got the yellow ones on them now but on passenger side the clip is broken)
Projection head lights
Black to carbon tail lights
Shift Boot - Black with Blue seam
Paint - Blue (kinda like the blue WRX's come in)
Speedy Lite-8 black rims
K20A engine with the LSD 6SPD Transmission (complete)
Stage 5 clutch kit
Wire tuck in the engine bay
Racing seats - black and Blue
Redo interior to black carpet and blue headliner with the dash in black and blue
Really don't plan on getting a body kit but if I was gonna get one it would be the Mugen front and buddy club sides and rear

THe more power you put into a car the better clutch you need I might just get a stage 4. I do plan on getting a K20A that's 220 off the bat plus the other upgrades that I will do. I really want to do a Mugen Power theme too.

Nice hatch... personally, I'd keep the EM1 wheels.
But one thing you're overlooking. A K-series clutch will be designed to handle the power your K20a is putting down. Unless you plan on going heavily boosted, a stock replacement clutch would be fine for you. I wouldn't go with anything with a higher holding capacity than what you absolutely need... anything more just becomes a PITA when you try to DD the car. I'm not happy that I need to get a Stage 3 clutch for the mustang, but I kind of need the 700ft*lbs holding capacity for what I have planned lol

Yea I might just get the Stage 3 after thinking about it for a while and dreaming of the K20A. I love that engine.
