I'm gunna be getting a clutch/flywheel, cam/springs, replacement JDM headlights and corners, and probobly more.
I haven't spent any money on the car in a LONG time and I got a new job that has helped me catch up on bills and now it's tax return season so I'm gunna be blowing some money on the civic.
I'm actually going to be doing a lot of work to it.
Brakes:
I got those prelude/type r calipers sitting around I'm gunna get those on up front... that should make it stop like a beast.
Clutch/Flywheel:
Haven't decided on a combo yet but def. going to be getting these as my current clutch is SHOT real bad and the flywheel is the original with 203k miles and I'll have it open anyway so... Probobly going as light as possible... I'm looking at the ACT prolite, or maybe another one... as the ACT is pretty pricey... not terrible though. Probobly ACT or Clutchmaster for the clutch kit.
Body:
Getting the headlights cuz I had headlights from singapore with the city lights but a glass lense... also when I got them I didn't read the auction to find out that the corners were for a 4 door not a 2 door... and haven't really seen the corners I wanted (clear jdm) since then other than on really expensive sites.
Also probobly going to fix up the fenders... they're all f'd up... not sure what to do about the door after that bastard in the expedition raped it. Probobly going to try to source one locally.
Engine:
Definately getting a Comp Cams 59300 (stage 2) cam and springs... although I'm hung up on what to do about the retainers as I don't want to have to replace the retainers as titanium requires...
Also thinking about doing a Y8 intake manifold. heat sheald gasket, and b-series TB, at the same time.
Gotta do the headgasket... So not really sure on brand yet but I'm pretty sure I'm gunna get ARP bolts while it's off Since I plan on going turbo in the not to distant future.
Car should rip when I'm done... nothing sick but a hell of a lot faster then it was and it was already fun to drive...
Only thing I really want to do that I'm probobly not going to is the suspension...
I'm really hung up on spending the extra money on coilovers instead of GC's and koni's since they're not too far off in price range.
I still might though... gotta see how my spending spree goes.
