I've been gone for a long time but now I'm back. I use to drive a 99 Honda civic Ex when I first joined this site years back. Then I bought a 92 Honda Civic DX a year ago and just now started wanting to get involved in this site again after getting some progress done with her after her front end collision. (sorry if it's a little messy)


List of stuff done to her
12:1 Compression D16A6 (What is vtak?)
OBX 4-2-1 Header
Egay N1 Catback
Chipped P06 ECU with 4K Launch control
Password JDM Carbon Fiber Power Chamber
Short throw shifter

Randon goodies
NRG Quick Release with GR Steering wheel
Enkei HX white Wheels
Wink Mirror
Pink Valve cover
Pink Password JDM Shift knob
Lowered on lowering springs...
HID Headlights
50/50 Tail lights

Only pictures I have of her before the accident






Then she ended up in a front end crash but I can't find any photos of it besides after all the damage was taken off


Random Photo of her being covered up till I could get a trailer to move her to the shop


On her way!

Progress photos



I had a family friend put a new front end core support and on but lets just say I got ripped off pretty bad but this is what it looked like when I got her back.



Didn't even line anything up right and rigged the fenders and hood by drilling in his own holes and didn't put the bumper bar on just threw the bumper on there. Lesson learned

Heres some random pictures after his half ass work




Some fun photos with my buddies RSX Type S





I've decided to start trying to fix her up myself and this is far as I gotten so far

Started tearing apart the front end


Put the bumper bar on


Started putting the fenders back in place but the hood keeps overlapping the passenger side fender and can't seem to get it to move over...


That's all the progress I have gotten so far till I figure out how to get the hood to go on straight..

Pictures of goodies

Interior




Engine bay



I probably should have let her go after the accident but I just couldn't do it specially since I live in Michigan and it's almost impossible to find another EG Hatch.

Future plans after getting the front end done will be
Adding a front lip
Putting on coilovers
Cleaning up the body to have her repainted(haven't decided on color yet
Duck Bill

Any advice is welcome!

Still can't get the bumper to sit right. Maybe raise the core support up??

Thanks! I've put a lot of work into her but over the last week I've been thinking about selling her and moving on

What would you set your sights on next?

Honda? Or carwork altogether? What other manufacturers pique your interest?
Most likely everything. Been thinking about it for a while but haven't done it yet

Rain guards in my opinion are one of the best additions you can put on a car. I personally prefer fresh air flowing through at a higher rate. You do get more outside noise. Also helpful when its raining and your defrost doesn't work due to the AC being broken.

AC isn't broken it doesn't have it. But I'm really liking them so far
