Something to hold me over till i get the wagon.

wagodizzle · January 2006

Hi guys, well, i went out and bought a 1989 HOnda Civic Hatchback for $300.

it has 144,600 miles on it and a 4-speed stick. it is to hold me over till i get the wagon in my other board ( http://www.hondacivicwagon.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=16 ) anyway... i have to get a timing belt changed and a new CV joint. also the head gasket is a little leaky. but $300 for a rust-free car is not that bad!

hey what a good deal! it looks nice and clean..and for $300 bucks you can't beat that.

wagodizzle · January 2006

i have been saving that plate since i was 10 (i am currently 17) and so i put it on. both my parents are 100% european...so wutever. and yeah it was a super deal! i'll post an engine pic up soon.

its good to know im not the only young person on this board....i'm 17 too. i have a '90 wagon by the way, ive yet to post pics up

akiraboy · January 2006

damn thats a clean ass hatch

wagodizzle · January 2006

thats awesome duckie8310, i was about to think i was the only teenager who likes civic wagons! anyway...yeah, it is a clean hatch for its price! i'll post up a picture of some mods i have in mind later today when i finish the pic.

wagodizzle · January 2006

ok, here is another Photoshop rendering of a couple of proposed ideas i have/had in mind for this car:

i'll try to list a few mods here:
Kosei K1 Racing wheels
Yokohama Parada Spec-2 205/40-16 tires
'89 Integra front lip
clear corners
ViS Racing carbon fiber hood
Eibach lowing springs
some type of exhaust system as well, i don't know of one right now though...
(and if i find the time and money) B16A DOHC V-tec and 5-speed tranny swap w/ possible turbo kit...yea yea yea. wishful thinking.

or i might go with SSR Competition wheels:

anyway, these are just a few ideas.

no joke dude, i tried to photoshop some dollar bills by scanning them into the computer, and it wouldn't let me!!! it DENIED me...damn computer, its too smart. :twisted:

yeah, anyway..............

wagodizzle · March 2006

ok, i installed my lowering sprins a couple dys ago...yeaterday, actually. anyway, i got a "homemade" rear camber kit from washers, i used two washers. is that too much? anyway, just need a front one now. also on is a "new" 1991 Si steering wheel and an exhaust tip. my car is slowly lookin better. now i need those Kosei K1 rims i dream about.

and of course an engine sawp of sorts.

the lowering job.

i sometimes scrape the tires in the wheel wells...not good.

very close to the ground.....

and my new steering wheel. it feels very nice.

duckie8310 · March 2006

did you use the stock struts? how low of a drop is it?

nice exhaust tip by the way!

ThatDoodle · March 2006

looking good. great buy.

wagodizzle · March 2006

yeah, i used the stock shocks (i am little cheap right now) and it is lowered about 1.75 in the front (i think) and 1.5 in the back. i used Eibach Sportline springs. the exhaust tipis from Advance Auto Parts. $9.68....

thanks for the comments!!

wagodizzle · April 2006

here is another pic....took today. blah....i checked out the damage and it didn't seem to mess up the frame (THANK GOD) but the steering is messed up and so is the trailing arm or wutever thats called....when the Silverado rammed it :x o well........

wagodizzle · April 2006

i "tore" it apart today....just to see if the frame got bent....and the good news is no :twisted: so, i am going to be taking a trip to the junkyard soon here....need a door, hood, fender, bumper filler, and a couple small bumper support pieces, as well as a strut brace/trailing arm or wutever those are called.
(you can see the Eibachs in there

) damn...these pics are huge. blah.

wagodizzle · April 2006
