Hi all, am from the island of Jersey. Driving a Red Honda Civic Hatchback 92 VTI. Its in Very good condition. Had Her 3 years now and have ony just fitted an ITG Maxogen induction kit and Magnaflow exhaust with Supersprint manifold. She has a Bomex rear bumper at the moment. Going in in a few weeks to have Bomex sideskirts, bomex spoiler, Kingdom showtime front bumper, Blackwidow II hood, SignalAutoJapan mirrors and is having the tailgate smoothed and de-locked. She is sitting on AVO height/dampner ajustable suspension and 17" Lenso RS5 wheels. I'll post some pics up when I have the work done. Also going on is a Red Type R Valve cover and a mugen strut bar.

Thanks mate, it will be. Goes in to the body shop on 6th September. I can't wait to get her back. When the body is done, going to get the interior sorted. New seats and re-trim the back seats and door cards. Tell me about your ride!

Ntxmotorsports- Yeah we have them here, that shape we call a civic coupe, That is nice, I really like what you've done. I see you are after a b series engine! Good choice. Mine has the B16a DOHC 16v Vtec. its not slow! Guess you'll go for the b18 out of the Integra Type R?

no, a pound is more than a dollar. i think its around 1.4 dollars. so its closer to $6000. but he said its fitted, which i assume means installed, so not as bad.
