What's up everyone?

My name is Ramalhinho07, some of you might know me, others not really but anyway here we go.

I'm a 19 year old car enthuisast from Riverside, California and i work as a Call Center assistant, which is the shittiest job on earth.

I own a 1991 Honda Civic EF, which is also my first car.

It has a SOHC D16 Series Engine, and it's pretty much a stock pos.
Well almost, except for the BRIDE Knockoffs the previous owner threw on it, till this day i'm afraid one of them might snap in two and get me killed, but fuck it i paid 1800$ for it, and no big signs of rust, has a bit of superficial rust here and there that i might fixer later on, anyway here are some pics of it:




I hate the 16" steelie life , so i wanna get hands on a set of wheels soon if all goes well.


I also got a long term project, i got this from a junkyard near my house.

So yeah this (more like was by looking at it) is a 1989 Nissan 240SX, you probably heard about them before, or even saw a couple crash into walls or trees.

This is one of them, got it for 950$ dollars. And you can see why i paid so little for it.
The front end clip is pretty much gone, the junkyard guy said the guy lost control in the rain and crashed into a pole, but yeah this car needs a LOT of work done to it.
I removed all the front end parts and left them there since i don't really want them and the guy was actually nice and offered me a pignose bumper he had laying around, i was really happy about that

As you can see the front left Control Arm is bent, the frame is also bent so i might cut it off and put a tube frame if i can't fix it among many other stuff. Previous owner took a few things off the car like the engine (he was running a SR20DET setup that by miracle didn't take much damage other than intercooler and piping)
My idea for the 240 is rebuilding it and making a clean car, i don't know what engine and aero i'm going for but i'll check prices and all and see what's best

But yeah more updates will be coming soon, more car parts hopefully and yeah stay tuned!
