Greetings. I've been lurking on the forum for well over 5 months now and have decided to join in the festivities.
A small background:
I'm from Jamaica and have owned two vehicles prior to what I have now, they were a '96 Toyota Starlet Glanza V and a 2003 Honda Accord 3.0L V6.
Glanza:
Accord:
Now, the EK Civic:
D13B, automatic, 15" League rims ... stock.
Plan?
1. Suspension:
a) Toss up between Ground Control coilover sleeves and Koni Yellow struts OR Progress CS-II coilovers.
b) Front and rear sway bar upgrade. Haven't decided on sizes yet.
c) Possibly go for 16" rims and tyres, depending on what my power requirements are.
2. Power: I will be remaining with the D-series family as it's less hassle to have the conversion done properly, locally. In addition, parts for B-series are very hard and expensive in Jamaica.
a) Manual transmission swap
b) D15B or D16Y8 upgrade.
- The aim is to remain NA while I collect all my turbo parts. I miss the Glanza ha.
3. Cosmetics:
a) Motorized folding side mirrors
b) Front and rear lips
c) CTR headlights
Then miscellaneous things like replacing missing interior items are also in the mix, but no where near priority.
