So here it goes.

I got a 90 Honda civic EX which i purchased from my cuzzin.

How i got it
B16 swap
tokico blues with GC
steelies w/ hubcap
NRG quickrelease

The story of the car
My cuzzin's and I drove to LA to pick up this car. The car was BONE STOCK with just a k&n air filter. My cuzzin who purchased the car sold it to a friend due to bills. The friend crashed the car, repaired the damage then sold it to my OTHER cuzzin.

My cuzzin then paid me and my other cuzzin ( my_EFsedan as most may know him by) to do the B16 swap. The car had problems which werent taken care of and soon broke down.

I then purchased the car and got it running. Now i will be putting work into the car and would like to document my progress here so i can look back and see how the car turned out.

Here are some shots of the car the day we brought it back from LA.

UPDATE AS OF 11/19/09

So far what i have done to the car since i got it
- Cap/rotor replacement
- battery
- Got the piping rewelded

- Koni sport(yellows) front shock with GC
- Tokico illumas (white) rear shock with GC
