- Mon Sep 15, 2008 11:22 am #69825 Hello all. I am new to the forum and new to Civics. I picked up a 93 DX Hatch with 137k on it. Overall good shape but a few rough spots. I will continue to post new pics on this thread as my car progresses.

Thanks

- Mon Sep 15, 2008 8:26 pm #69905 LOL...for sure. Both are fixed as we speak, as if they were never there. I will post up new picks when I get my GSR wheels, 15% tint all around and JDM mirrors.

I will be doing full suspension and Integra brakes soon.

Once the old 1.5 lets go it will get a GSR swap. But that will probably be awhile considering it runs excellent.

Thanks

- Mon Sep 15, 2008 9:20 pm #69915 Car looks great. Good to hear you got the honda rot fixed. Awesome blue too. What GSR wheels? Either way they will look great! cant wait to see this lil hatchie progress.

- Mon Sep 15, 2008 9:45 pm #69922 Thanks. I too really like the blue. I am putting on a mint set of blades. Should be picking them up tonight or tomorrow. Here is a pic.


My mirrors are in the mail and I should be getting it tinted next week. I repainted the hood, window trim and wipers gloss black. I really don't like the black hood but I couldn't afford full paint when I had the rust fixed. All in time I guess.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I have been mostly into Rx7's for the past 10 years, but I'll tell ya, this little hatch is definitely growing on me.

- Mon Sep 15, 2008 11:01 pm #69935 OO, I love the FCs my fav style of the Rx7. I still want one. What mirrors did you get? JDM really refers to the mirrors that came on the Japanese civics which would be the power folding mirrors, but since the term JDM is so over used there is no telling what you got. So thats why I ask.

Rims look great!

- Tue Sep 16, 2008 12:18 am #69943 I have owned FB's and FC's. I built a few high HP FB's. I have never owned an FD, though I almost bought one last year.

Here is a picture of the mirrors I purchased. Personally, I think they look better. They will be painted eventually.

- Tue Sep 16, 2008 12:39 am #69946 yea, those are the spoon copies. Nice mirrors, I have them on my other hatch.

- Tue Sep 16, 2008 11:48 am #69994 Yeah, I hear ya on the whole JDM thing... Funny how most Honda/Acura guys call it JDM and most rotary guys call it J-Spec.

I am picking up the wheels today! Mirrors will be here Friday.

I also have another small project planned. Since the car is my daily I will be completely re-undercoating it soon. I moved to Jersey so I gotta keep it from rusting again.

Thanks

- Tue Sep 16, 2008 9:40 pm #70080 It will be lowered. I was looking at the Tokico setup, but I'm not sure. I have had success with them in the past. I think it's 1.5 in the front and 1 in the rear. Not overly lowered but I don't want it too low for it is my daily. But enough so it looks good and has better handling.

I got the wheels today. They look even better in person. I also picked up a mint Si gauge cluster.

I will post up some pics soon.

- Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:32 pm #70087 Sounds nice! cant wait to see the new parts

- Wed Sep 17, 2008 11:18 am #70159 I am familiar with OHLINS suspension. They are some of the best shocks available for any application. However, I am not spending $3k on my suspension....I can pick up the Tokico HP's and springs for around $380 shipped.

Thanks
