96 Civic Coupe

I got this car in a trade, I was in need of something better on gas then my 4x4 Explorer. I stalked craigstlist posting my truck every couple days. I finally got an email from someone looking for something to haul a boat with to go fishing with his kids. He had a 1996 Civic with a D16y8 swap, full Megan header back exhaust. K Sport coilovers, upper n lower control arm strut bar sway bar.

The car has a bit of a rough ride in the rear end, I think it may be due to 1 tire being the wrong size from the other 3. My bad for not picking up on that at inspection. Trans is nice, shifts smooth. Has a lot of low end power, breaks the tires loose almost a little to easily.

What I got in the trade.



The gas it will save me makes up for any cosmetic issues.

Not bad man, plans???...
My plans are to make it driveable right now. The last owner did something to the car between the time I test drove an the time I picked it up because now the rear suspension is ruined. 1 blown Ksport strut 1 on the way out.

Tach doesn't work so I might get another cluster an swap them to see if that helps.

New windshield
Bolt down rattling heat shield.
