Hi ppl new member here I joined in Nov and just been tryin to gather as much info on my car as I can this site has been very helpful. I bought a '97 civic ex coupe back in october and its become a cool little project to work on. I own and have owned several of honda's bikes but never any of thier cars so this is kinda new to me but I do my own work most of the time and have experience working on bikes and cars. Well I guess thats about it, I hope to learn more about this car through other ppl and this site and hope I can help other ppl out too.

I got an SI front grill coming soon It will look much better then lol.

For some reason It wont let me insert the pics into the post so heres the link to the pics of my civic in on my webshots page. Not bad for $1700 lol

 

looks good man, u got any plans for it

 

Yea I got some big plans for this car but wish I had more $$$ to do the things I want. I wanna get some good dampers and lower it prob gonna go with tien. And of course either 15" or 16" rims and strut bars and other things to improve the ride/suspension. Then prob do a rear disc brake conversion and put bigger rotors and calipers on the front. Repaint the car not sure what color was thinking either orange with metallic flake in it like my cbr 600rr or like a gloss black. Then swap out my D16 for either a B16/B18 and build it up and turbo it. I wanna keep it as a daily driver so not gonna get too crazy still want it to be reliable. Theres so much I wanna do to this car but wish I had more money lol. You got any plans for yous?
