I know my build is much lower budget than most other awesome builds but this is the first car I'm really learning on. I was spoiled by having a 96 EX civic coupe in CGP green and it was nice but I never really got to do awesome stuff to it like Ive done so far on this wagon (even if it seems noobish)
I need a checklist and I need to stick to it so voila! this "build" thread
I want to do the following in exact order
-Replace headlight housings and corner light housings
-Replace Fenders
-Replace rear pass. door
-89-91 EF Rear LCA's
-Extended top hats front/back
-Camber control Kit
-Get the missing trim on the pass. side
-Get a stock stereo
-Get an alarm
-Get a paint job "professionally" done by me with professional tools! =] Air compressor and gun and the workss
^ I know for sure I need to do this list here..
But ultimately performance wise I want to swap in a D16z6 with a d16y8 intake manifold and go low boost..
and for looks I'd like some Diamon racing wheels... 15x8 +15 offset i believe on some 175/50/15? I believe im close but I wont REALLY look into it until I'm looking to drop real money
