It was a great year for my 1993 Honda Civic and my Blog as many good things happened. Early January of 2008 I got my 1.6 Liter D16A VTEC engine installed and working while learning a lot of things and posting my complete swap on this blog. In the spring I went to a bunch of car shows and posted the great looking photos on my blog and also picked up a 2nd Civic Hatch back just like mine but a 1995 CX model. I starting looking at body kits in May but in June I raced my Civic on the 1/4 mile and decided to wait on the body kit and paintjob and start looking at turbo kits and what it takes to set one up. I did OK in the 1/4 mile at 16.40 secs which is respectable with my setup and the 15″ wheels I was using. I was excited to go to Import Invasion at Mission Raceway in early June but unfortunetly it rained out and the event was cancelled. In June and July I did a complete tranny swap on the 1995 civic and posted all the info needed for anyone else that might be doing this on their car. In August I went to the Pitt Meadows Airshow and took some great pictures of some tuner cars, and also posted a complete rear brake job on the 1992-1995 Honda civic. Early fall I did some extensive research on turbo kits and also found and posted a writeup about the quality of eBay turbo kits and why they are not worth the money. At the the end of the year I finally started my D16 Turbo Build and made some good progress, later in December I changed the name of the build to the RC D16 Turbo Build to honor my 2 dogs that died this year. It was a great 2008

Looking forward to a great 2009! Best wishes for a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year!
A 16.40 secs 1/4 mile is pretty good, congratulations. What do oyu have planned for the next 12 months? Good luck in 2009!
It was good for my car considering the weight of the wheels. I might take it down the strip one more time before installing turbo with my stock 13″ steel wheels and see what impact that has on 1/4 mile performance.
