hey everyone, my name is justin, as the title says i am from st. louis missouri, i drive a 95 civic hatch, picked it up roughly a week ago for a daily, it has a jdm d15b, short shifter, window visors, and not much else... shes been around the block a few times and has some rust, some dings and dents but, i dont plan on doing much to this car, maybe a full exhaust and an intake, i do, however, plan on turning this in to a well handling daily to zip around in so suspension is a must, going to keep my eyes out for a good set of coilovers, urethane bushings, various different braces and strut bars, upgrade to bigger brakes and probably a quality set of wheels so the car looks good (to me anyway)... i also plan on adding some jdm goodies, got my eye on some foglights, turn signals and side markers, probably a front lip and something clean for the rear spoiler


the pics
i call this car the ninja turtle, hopefully this pic explains where i got the idea










i would like to start a wire tuck, but considering this is my daily i'll be making my best attempt to keep downtime to a minimum, first thing on the list is a new timing belt/water pump (i know the bay isnt pretty but im not picky (not right now at least)


jdmness


ive joined a few other forums recently and posted this intro on those as well

 

welcome!
wire tucks are not that bad to do. if i can do it ,so can you.
i was thinking about a d15b. nice little motor!

 

i know i would be able to do it, im just not willing to learn on the car i drive every day... i love this motor btw, great on gas and has quite a bit of pickup for its power output

 

my old hatch backs the white one is a 91 with a b18c1 that eventually was transplanted over to the red car (an 89) after the b18b slipped a timing belt









god i miss that engine bay

 

Welcome!

 

nice! wish mine was that clean. i think mine is that tucked though! :P
