- Tue Mar 23, 2010 7:16 pm #183183 Hey there fellow Civic Enthuthiasts, i'm new to this site and to tuning and im going to start posting progress on my first car, and my first project, me and my dad are building it together, i'm looking for any imput at all, i'll get pictures on as soon as I can.


Paid 300$ for the car,
The Good:
1995 Civic SI, Leather seats, Sunroof, 6 speakers, Integra 14'' alloys with new-ish tires and D15B JDM engine swap, cold air intake.

The Bad:
Leaky Gas Tank, Broken exhaust, Driver side floor, Both quarters, Fenders are decent at best, need rear rotors, seized wire to pop gas cap.

So far, i've got : new gas tank, new exhaust and bought the metal to fix the floor and just recently bought a chrome header and can.

I've got everything out of it and am about to start the repairs.











Doesn't look like much yet, remember I only paid 300

- Sat Mar 27, 2010 10:07 pm #184102 finally got the pics up, just put the driver side floor in, and finished hooking all the exhaust up today.

- Thu Apr 01, 2010 2:07 am #184898 Alright, well the body work is going quickly now, floor is nearly in, driver side rocker is in, getting passenger side done ASAP, then off the the quarters!



Im looking for some input, Trying to decide what colour to paint the car/rims, im thinking Black Car and White or Black rims, but im open to any ideas

- Thu Apr 01, 2010 3:08 pm #184959 Great deal! They are fun to build up because it takes time, but sometimes gets annoying and feels like wayyy too much time. It's all worth it though. Don't rush a project do it right the first time. Once you get it going invest in antitheft material right away. Black maybe, black just seems hard to keep looking good and shows many flaws. All blacked out seems better than it sounds. Teal, yellow, white, forest green and, a good blue are by far my favorite colors.

- Thu Apr 01, 2010 7:40 pm #184997 keep up the work. lower it.

- Thu Apr 01, 2010 8:26 pm #185010 Already lowered 2 inchs Im thinking black with gold rims would look pretty clean, paint the emblems gold too.
