insane_one

just picked it up recently. 1990 Civic Wagon DX. picked it up for only $400bucks.
the day i got it



rear end is up high because of RT4WD rear springs. eww



steelies dont work, but MaxxSport's do!







Flip for life! JDM all the way



seeing the orignal deck in a civic is a first for me. wont stay there long



good sound. Pioneer



CRX Si inserts. not sure but maybe the moonroof switch will come in handy one day.



Carwash!!



my future plans



B16A2. slowly coming together. no specifics yet on the internals or were im going with it.



Hasport D2B linkage. D2B mounts.

thats it for now. got afew things to grab and slap on still. what do you guys think?

looks like you are off to a good start! get some RT front springs and you got yourself a B16 mudcrawler

Kroete

That thing is realy for offroad-use

insane_one

insane_one

UPDATES!!!!
sortta good and bad update. had to sell the rims to put my B16 together. sold the rims, picked up a B16 head with GSR cams and aftermarket valve springs and retainers. going to be pickin up a B16 cable tranny soon. got 2 GSR blades to make up for the lost blingage.



Bling-Bling



still off road status. . .



these should fix that. brand new HPracing coilovers.

goodnews-got coilovers
bad news-rear shock bolts striped

gunna have to find replacements. after market or stock? hmmm



ehh. i like CRX Si wheel better.



picked up front & rear strut bars. im gunna wait to put them on. gotta figure out the whole suspension issue.



but yea. thats it for now. not sure whats next, but stay tunned. what do you think?

wagodizzle

i think...

you need 2 more GSR blades :P
my rear bolts on my car were rusted solid when i went to change suspension. took me THREE DAYS to change it. ended up have to cut the old shock out haha. i replaced the bolt first with one from Home Depot, but eventually got a nice OEM one from the junkyard. OEM is always better in the long run

EDwEFprts

good progress.
i've had the bolt issues too.
in fact, i'm in the middle of it right now.

Eagle Beagle

i'm in the middle of awwnesss...
:shock:

insane_one

thanks guys. well im tryna find some intown but if i dont what would be a good brand to get? im going to be riding around with this thing sweeping the floor 8) i looked up shocks on ebay and found skunk2's to be around $300ish and tokico's were a little cheaper. but what i dont understand about the tokicos is that the white one were cheaper and the blue ones were almost as expensive as skunk2s. are the white ones like stock repleacements??

insane_one

i think my wagon is ugly and no one cares what happens to it. lol anywhoo more updates!!!

the block is almost done



clean



rebuilt and cleaned up, honed and washed, new ARP headstuds and bolts, new ACL bearings, new rings, new headgasket, new water pump, new oil pan gasket





B16 head w/ GSR cams aftermarket springs and retainers





thats it for now. in the process of putting it all together. i still need a few pieces but the main parts ive got so im happy.

insane_one

insane_one

wagodizzle

tight. can't wait to see!

AK_CRX

I know this car!! I'm the reason your drivers side rear door has a 4x4 logo, and mine don't! Wagon is coming along good, Knik towing/wrecking has a good pass. side front door. They got like 3 or 4 wagons up there... Just hate their business.
