Scott's Ek Build: Shaved and Tucked
Today I evened out the front, one was a lil lower, and straightened camber a lil bit. But it is pulling harder to the right now, so this is going to suck driving the 3 hours at 70 with bad camber. Going to see if my sister will trade Civics for the day. My tires squeel so much more through turns now, really didn't too much before now I don't even have to be going that fast for them to. Getting realignment should fix it though.
Nice work! Good to see you got it lowered! Get that alignment done ASAP! You will eat through tires if your toe isn't corrected.
BTW, the VC is looking gorgeous. I can picture it with some AN fittings coming out the front or back for a catch can set-up

My Oshkosh trip has been changed to Thursday now, yay I can get my car aligned before then and take it then. The mad pull to the right is awesome. Going to lower the car a thread or two more all around, considering how low it is right now I don't scrape anywhere, that's a problem! I did scrap once going straight forward into a neighbors driveway. Buuuuuut it needs to be lower, I am tucking tire on my 14" steelies ftw! So down a little bit more then get an alignment come Monday. Going to have to eyeball the camber up front againt, and I am going to throw a 3rd washer in the back on each bolt to push ou thte wheel, runnin a decent bit of negatice back there right now. Fancy jdm foggies go back on with the bumper when I get it. It'll be unpainted for a while, oh well. Going to rewrap my visor tomorrow, only fabric thing I never did because I am lazy. Going to help my friend that did my suspension with me rewrap the headliner of his 87 Camaro too. Paint A, B, and C pillars black in the next day or two also. Maybe Sunday.
Sexy gold valve cover is going to go on tomorrow, and maybe the header if we get to it and/or feel like it. Might be doing a tranny swap on a Porsche this week. Friend might be buying a mid 80s auto Porsche with blown tranny for 1k, and someones selling a tranny for $200. Charge him a lil bit and have it in in a day, auto trannys are easy to do, especially rwd, and something so untechnological!

^ Yes 944.
Today I put the gold valve cover on as well as my header I had. Put both on and my car runs funny. I know I need a new header donut thingy, stock one sucked as well as the one that was on the header so I'll order one. You can hear the exhaust leaking out of the side. But when I start my car the passenger side seems to shake real bad. Once the cars running it is fine, I have no idea what it is. Any ideas?
The gold vc looks awesome. The header also looks nice, and I did something a little different with my strut bar. I've never seen this done before, thought of this at like 1 in the morning yesterday, spent 30 min just taping out each ring. Turned out amazing I think, I absolutely love it! Here's pictures!




Sexxxxxxyyyyyyyyy

Picking up the new bumper Thursday. I found my old lip and put it on the front bumper to eye ball it and I had literaly under 1.5" of clearence, so it won't work lol. Fog lights will be back though. I'm doing pretty good not scraping anywhere, resonator did hit on the driveway today tho >.<
Ah well maybe it'll look okay w/o a lip since its so much lower haha and is it the same bumper style or one of the si or whatever ones? (totally blanking on the names of em haha)
Yah same here and imo the fogs look better for them than the 99-00 model...turbo looks better in them too imo. btw thanks for accepting my friend request
i think u could answer a lot of my Q's about my civic if i have any haha prolly dumb ones but still. Anyway sorry for the seemingly gay statement just then but yah ur project is coming along nicely
