Well I haven't been on here forever. So, here goes my civic sat basically stagnant for about 7 years only being pushed in and out of the garage. Until about 2 weeks I found a b16 transmission for a reasonable price. I brought it home looked it over and got my stuff attached to it. I got my civic off the ground, wheels off, gas tank drained, took headlights apart to fix and refinish, got a bunch of stuff to sell and possible a clutch lined up. Getting ready to wake her up hopefully this weekend!!!!

Changed all the bypass/heater/coolant hoses, cuz one of them busted yesterday, so decided to change them all.. i think about 8 of them, except the upper & lower radiator hoses.

I put a few tasteful decals I picked up on the windscreen and wiped down the interior and shook off the mats so the gf doesn't think I'm a slob lol
