Hi everyone. I'm Brandon. I just got a 93 vx a few weeks ago. I have never owned a honda before. In the past I have had a 93 240sx with coilovers and 1.8 turbo. Still own a 03 Focus SVT (Selling it) and a few other cars. Anyways, I have never gotten in to the honda thing because there are so many ricers with bad taste around here. But I really have enjoyed the car so far. It gets great gas mileage and has a great feel.
First things first though, I need to do a bit of restoration. I ordered some turn signals off of ebay because one of mine is broken. Now I am looking for manual mirrors (my drivers side one is loose and wiggles) and one of my hatch's shocks is missing. Oh yes and a gauge cluster with a tach!!
Oh yes about my car. I checked the VIN and it says CX, but the motor is the d15z1 or whatnot from the vx and the tailgate has a vx sticker on it. It also has the cx wheels. I do know that the motor was replaced by the previous owner. Also, the valve cover doesn't say VTEC-E on it like I thought they were supposed to. Any ideas? So this is my fraken-civic. I will post pictures in the "your ride" section in a day or two when I have time.
After I get the car freshened up it will be time for suspension upgrades. That and some brakes. I am not so much a power hungry person, but I have to have a great handling car. Man, that was a long post.
