Sup everyone! Name's Brian live in AL and no I am not a redneck. Prior owner of a 96 Honda prelude my first project car long gone now. New to owning a Honda civic waiting to get the keys to a '98 Ek hathback. Goal is to make it quick and clean nothing over the top.

 

Welcome to the forum!

Do you plan on building it for a clean look, or a clean look with extra power? How much money do you plan on spending on the car? Make sure to post pics when you get the car!

 

Thanks for the welcome. Gonna be clean on the outside CTR front and rear lip & enough power to be used on the street and local drag strip. Are you familiar with D16z6 with Vitara piston turbo build? Thats the direction i want to go with the engine build. How much money I am willing to spend. This will be a budget build with lots and lots of research before placing any major orders.

 

Sounds like a good plan!

Make a project thread when you get a chance!

 

Yea I got about two more weeks till my buddy get's back in state for me to get the keys from him. He started the project but has to many on going projects so something had to go so he selling me the hatch.

 

There my soon to be hatch that's all the pic of it i have so far. Will have more in two weeks. Nope that's not my foot in the pic. The first pic car has yet to be lowered. Those are 18x8.5 i know huge for a hatch but they are practically brand new so i am not complaining cause the came with the car.

 

Welcome.

 

Thank you!

12 more days till I take ownership of my new ride. Can't make up my mind to either order a CTR front and rear lip off of eBay or another gauge cluster with tach. Any suggestions on which to order first.

 

Tach. Definitely if the car is a 5spd.

 

Yea it is I decided to go with a new/used gauge cluster. Did the 5 inch monster tach in my prelude. Didn't want to go back down that road unless it became required.
