ill start from the beginning i bought the car october of 07 completely stock civic cx from York PA. I already had a full interior for it from my old integra i re-did it in leather and suede and did the door panels and rear insers to match once i got the car, and had some visoin amber corners, b&m short throw and skunk2 knob ready to go in too.

removed the oem carpet because it was moldy and smelled bad

then got my hands on some rotas for cheap while i was doin some bodywork, had to cut some of the rust out. after the bodywork was done i decded i didnt want to paint it yet so i went with a red/orange primer and sprayed most of the car with it. and got some other little goodies.

then came time to swap out the SOHC for a jdmb16 from HMO, great people to deal with btw.

bought some function & form type II’s and bottomed them out, had to roll the fender over and pull it out some to avoid the tire, and had to trim some of the lip of the rear quarter.

Now to the present im changing a few things up over winter doing a full brake tuck, fuel line tuck, new rad overflow and line, full cage, new carpet, ect etc

tell me what you guys think good or bad and ideas for the future. Thanks.

some stuff im working on as we speak. i got sick of the yellow ASR subframe so i decided i am going to sand the anodizing off and just clear it to match the function7 lca’s

trash pile after you tuck your brake lines and fuel lines but it was worth it

and this is supposed to be an s2000 clutch MC but this is what they sent me i have no idea what it is, the mc should be here wednesday.

that is one of the nicest builds i have seen on a civic. your attn to detail is awesome.

[jcxcr4000]

very nice cant wait to see the finished product

[rusty240det]

looks great except for your lack of timing belt covers. seriously, when you drop something in there or suck something into your timing belt and wipe out a whole motor, you won’t think it looks so cool. for the clean look, i think it looks better with them on anyway.

[brokeasskorean]

car looks good, makes me wish i still had my 5th gen hatch.

and yea to what rusty said, i thought it was cool until i sucked in a plug wire.

[imported_gearhead]

i wish i had the time to do a clean build like that…

and if your going to take timing covers off, either all or nothing. I have had zero timing covers on my ferio’s h22 since it was built… balance shafts and all. about a month ago i got a green eg w/b16 setup like your covers and had the ground bolt come loose and fall down in there… spit the timing belt off, but luckily didnt take the motor out.

Exceptional build. Great detail!
I don’t know if I’ve either never seen, or never thought about the brakes… but that’s pretty cool!

Gotta agree, all or nothing on the cover. Personally, I think that it would look better with the cover there. Even thought it hides how clean it is underneath…

@Rogueeg6

thanks ill be leaving it off for now, but i understad the concern about it, i have no grounds up top anytways so only thing gonan fall in would be a vc bolt so ill take the risk

all that work and you dont care? Fail.

im finding your car and throwing rocks down the timing cover.

Props on the engine bay.

I’m not sure I like the kevlar in the dash. Just seems a bit much to me. Good idea, though. I like how you’re doing something different.

[Fast04Gt]

Wow man, max props to this CLEAN build!!

:bigok: I like your choice of seat. I considered selling my SiR interior for a set of the same Status buckets. I ended up keeping the SiR stuff.

It all looks amazing so far. Can definitely tell you’re not from Pittsburgh with the quality work you’re putting into it. Good job keep it up

[dyingwish]

Love it so far, excellent craftmanship.
