Whats up everyone. So i finally decided to make a project thread. Ive been here for a little while now, mostly asking questions lol. My car is a 92 civic lx. Rosewood brown metallic honda color description. I originaly bought the car of a former co-worker who was moving, at the time the car did not start and he thought it was because the motor was bad. I told him ill give him 400 for it, and he did. Come to find out the car only needed a new dizzy.

This is when i bought the car :

After driving stick for only like a month or 2, i took a turn, views was blocked and did not see that a car had suddenly stopped to let some person cross the street, my first reaction was to press the break, but since i wasnt use to the 3 pedals i hit the cluthch first, and then realized it was in a standard, and 3 secs later i hit the brake. but it was to late. i swerved to try and avoid the car, but i caught the corner of her bumper with driver headlight/corner of the hood, and my fender. Replaced the broken headlight, bought new stanley corners(the all clear ones). and now need a new fender and hood.

I not have much done to the car now but a few mods:
ebay sri pipe (painted black)
AEM dryflow filter
Megan 4-2-1 header
pioneer headunit, alpine typeR front speakers
and thats it. lol

My future mods that will be in probably before spring include:
mugen replica front lip
tint windows(maybe 20% all around,35% is the legal limit in MA)
eg8 depo yellow foglights
stechs or eibach lowering springs on kyb gr2 shocks
and my mini me motor swap
D15B1?(the last digit is really faded)
Z6 head
P28 timing belt
B000 tranny
I got the motor free from my brother, who got it from a friend. Its a fairly new rebuilt block. No clue what condition the motor is in, will have to find out when i swap it in.

Things i want to do:
redo the headliner, its drooping down.
contruct a new trunk liner, with a door for the spare, and a box for 2 10inch woofers, powered by 780watt pioneer amp
infinity reference rear speakers
and a touch up paint job on the body, and get a black hood i have painted my car color, and a new fender also painted my car color.

Hope you follow my progress, even if its a slow one,

But it wont be as slow as NIKE HEAD's LOL
