so everyones doing build threads, and its christmas and im bored so here we go bitches..
the day i bought the car basically, it was bangin!!! i ended up paying out $3,000 for a 98 civic with dings scrapes and dents with 120k on the clock, not too bad i guess, ran like a champ!
my first mod to the car was some wheels/tires, that was the first mistake dropped around a grand for them with tires, shitty motegi ff7's with nice general tires lol, i ended up selling them about 3 months later for $750.
i blew the stock trans and heres a pic of the [pressure plate, i did a 5 gear burnout in wet weather and ended up slamming 3rd gear 100 times over and fucked it up bad, my buddys dad told me he's never seena trans so fucked up in his life that was still driveable.
xmas eve last year, dad back into me, what a shade.....
NOW HERE COMES THE ACTUAL FUN!!!
i went back and forth on swaps and couldnt decide what i wanted, i hweaded over to one6 motorsports and talked to the owner mark about the engines he had in stock, turned out he had a 97 gsr swap that ahd been sitting for about 6 months, the swap came tot he us with around 10,000 miles on it, the whole front clip with cluster came over. it went into ahis shop car for around 5k before the car was hit by a drunk driver or someshit, the motor then sat for 6 monthsin the back until i came in that fateful day...
i loaded the swap up in the ek...final payment was $4300 this is what it included
