Body Kit Update

I found a Honda Civic on Cardomain.com that has the same side skirts that I want to install on my Civic. The owner attached the side skirts to the car and then molded them right to the side of the body so they look like their part of the car not just pieces of plastic that [...]

Possible Changes To The Body Kit Idea and Paint

  So I’ve been thinking about the body kit for my 93 Civic and I think I am going to mix and match different pieces to make the kit look better. I am going to use the Bomber Front Bumper [B-HC92BXF], the CB Style Side Skirts [B-HC92CBS3], and the XN Style Rear Bumper [B-HC92XNR3]. As far as the [...]

Upcoming Body Kit Style

My plan this summer for my 93 Civic is to get a body kit and paint it candy apple red. But before I do that I have to do some body work to get the dents out and fix any rust that might be hidden. The body kit that I am thinking of is available at 2 places, Extreme Dimensions and [...]

Show What You Got

I’ve been working on my civic for over a year now and mostly showing it off on my blog but a few days ago I decided to create a thread on one of my favorite forums D-Series.org. Here is the Link to my thread. I’ve gotten 12 replies so far and they all have been positive, plus some minor upgrades [...]

Tail Light Repair

Yesterday I finally got around to swapping out my water filled non working tail light with a spare one I picked up a few months back. I had to remove some clips and a few screws to move the inner molding out of the way to get to the light mounting nuts. I used a 8mm [...]

Wheel Swap Was a Success

Friday morning driving to work it was so warm and sunny I decided that I would do my wheel swap some time this weekend. When I swapped the steel wheels on my car last fall, I did it to save my 15″ mags and tires from winter carnage of salt and grime. So yesterday after work I pulled out the [...]

My First Full Synthetic Oil Change

   Thursday I had a day off and did my long awaited oil change on my new engine, and this time it was with Pennzoil full synthetic motor oil. I used a regular oil filter because from what i’ve read it won’t make a difference on my engine being a daily driver, if I was [...]

2 Months of Satisfaction :)

It’s been 2 months since I did the engine swap on my car and I love it every bit. It’s got more power, better response, less oil usage and looks good too. The D16 engine and the Si tranny works really good together in my little hatch. The Power to Weight ratio is really nice, [...]

Passed Aircare today with flying colors!

I passed aircare this morning with really good results and it didn’t take to much work. Yesterday I used up the last of the gas that I had in the tank and filled up with Mohawk 94 octane with 10% methanol, added some fuel injector cleaner and took it for a good boot at lunchtime. [...]

Top engine Bling Bling!

I was on eBay a few weeks back and stumbled upon a really cool looking oil cap, so I bought it and been waiting for it to arrive ever since. Well yesterday it arrived in the mail and soon as I got it I put it on and snapped some pictures for my blog. It [...]

Did My Valve Adjustment Today

Well it was a cold but sunny day today so I decided to do my valve adjustment as i’ve heard it’s suppose to snow for the next few days. I pulled out the spark plugs, wires and the distributor cap first, then pulled the valve cover off and finally pulled off the timing belt cover. [...]
