Your Civic definitely reminds me of the FNF days, hooly throwback. That JZX100 is insane!

Moshimoto Tyres

baaack
and picture heavy btw

So this is an update going over mainly just the Civic. I had planned to update on everything.....but I just didn't.. so this will do.

So basically the kit (besides the hood) has been fitted. Nobody sells the EJ2 Bomex hoods anymore so it's gonna be hard to find one but I will eventually.
Hopefully.
I have had the kit for a while now but I just never fitted it. I had some free time so I decided it would be better to fit it instead of leaving it to sit in the hallway in my house.

Took a while to remove the old bumpers and skirts. It was hard to fit the jack under the car, it's lower than I thought tbh

The garage was kinda busy today, we had an AE86 and a JZX100 Mark II.

I loved this JZX100 - it was super low. It could barely get in the door without scraping.

It was running staggered CST Hyper Zero and Work Vienna Kreis and was tucking haarrdd.
May have the JZX bug now. Might have to pick one up some day.

Anyway, back to the Civic - I had fully fitted the kit after a while and it looked sooo good (to me)

But now for the biggest and my most favorite part - the wing.

I really think this sets off the build in the way I wanted to. It has that 1999 feeling imo.

Next up is to replace that crusty exhaust tho

Took the Civic out for "photoshoot" once I had finished - after all I still needed to drive this home.

/\ loved this shot for some reason

That's it for now anyway. I love how the Civic looks currently and next thing up for it paint and other little things - like white tails or y'know, turbo.
bye for now lol

also quote cause new page lol

# KondzixsPL :
dunno how 2 feel about it

I wasn't really expecting people to like this really, I'm surprised nobody has said "eww ricer!!!11!1" yet

# Soju :
It looks so nostalgic! Any plans for crazy paintjob, decals and neons? 🙂)

I was about to hook you up with the finds, but no luck. Sorry to tell you I couldn't find BOMEX hood for your Civic.

It's sooo nostalgic 🙂
For paint and decals I was thinking maybe baby blue and some white stripe decals because baby blue was very popular/most popular colour at that time. Still very rough ideas but I will see what I would go with as I build it. Neons are definitely happening too. Gonna try have period correct stickers too.

It's ok about the hood too, I wasn't really expecting you to find one because I know how hard it is to find one too. I'll find one sometime hopefully

# saletl :
I'm totally into the civic. Just a black paintjob and you're ready to rob some trucks!

Thanks 🙂 yeah lol

Big throwback but good throwback imo. That JZX100 was insane, it's completely static too so it doesn't have a good ride (obviously) but it still looks sick. The color reflects really well too. Might have to buy a JZX myself 😉

btw I'd like to say you to buy an JZX someday,then another 1J fam yay

Yeah really does look like a Underground 1 car lol.
If I was to get a JZX100 I would have two 1JZ cars, never get enough. I have too many cars now for another one though.

kinda same here! I already have 2 JZX100s and already looking for another cars lmao

I literally don't have space for my cars in my driveway. R34, Civic, 180SX and Lagano's S14 on a small driveway in the middle of urban Tokyo doesn't work well tbh lol

that ~~ricer~~ nice car

Just a small update on the Civic

I bought a JVC Double-din touchscreen radio and KEYS steering wheel for V$290 from UpGarage.
The radio is really easy to use and looks cool, I might have to get one for my 180SX.

Spoiler: Parts: V$290
Remaining: V$7,000

It's nice to see you back again tho! I might need a cage some day so I will let you know when

Civic is on the way to 10 stars lol. Radio looks nice but don't forget about the sound system to work with it!

Dr_Zoom

Please feed rices to Civic, they are hungry...

Smurf

Next step is a giant "tear" vinyl down the side. Or a DOHC swap.

Mr_Stance

That civic is going well!
That spoiler would be debatable, but the rest is perfect!

New Car

I'm baaack
So while I was gone, stuff has happened. I got a new car, started the turbo manifold for the Civic and other things I will show later.

Like I said I bought a "new" car. It's a....

1993 Nissan Silvia S13!

Nah it isn't lol jk hahaha help

So the car I really bought is a 1997 Daewoo Tico DLX.

So.... this is quite a weird purchase. I seen it for sale in a random sales lot in Tokyo somewhere.
It was only Y65,562 which is extremely cheap for a car which is in such good condition. It has Shaken for another 3 months and even came with a free air freshener that smelled terrible and gave me a headache.

Yes it is LHD, it was an import into Korea a couple years ago. I don't know the original country it came from but oh well.

It has a 0.8l 3 cylinder engine. That's all I know about it. Not much to note on it really besides running quite well.

The interior is clean besides a few wear marks here and there but what can you expect from a 20 year old car.
It even has the original wheels too.
Can't wait to modify this little nugget.

I also got started on the Civic's exhaust manifold for the turbo. One of my friends had it previously but had a few cracks here and there, welded it up and it's fine.

Got a new exhaust from UpGarage too. No more crusty exhaust finally.

forgot this btw
Spoiler:
Paycheck x3: V$2,385
Daewoo Tico DLX: V$600
Exhaust tip: V$60
Parts for something: V$1,500
Remaining: V$7,225
