i like my headlights grill and fogs. like take them out or put oem? I just got to clean the haze on headlights. I dont know if you can tell in the picture but the grill is not even bolted down all the way. And i love my fog lights!
I KNOW!!! wish i had extra money but need to fix A/C and get new struts. Also looking to get sway bars. Ive read the upper strut bar doesnt do nothing so i dont need that but i guess the lower ones are good?
whats wrong with your A/C? an upper strut bar CAN make a difference, but not if you get a $20 advanced auto one. password jdm makes a 3 point bar which you can def. feel a difference. go with sway bars if you want instant gratification
yea im gana go with sway bars. Also ive seen pics of guys suspension from the back and theres like all kinds of things. Alot of th time different colors. What is all of that? haha new to suspension. And i dont know what wrong with it. It blows warm. so i bought freeon or whatever and had it put in by a mechanic and still nothing.plus when i put the A/C on high it blows jus like it is on low. I have no idea whats wrong. And i just had a baby this past weekend so A/C and struts NEED to fix ASAP! the ride is soooo bouncy!
Congrats on the baby! I was in Maui for 2 weeks in August. I loved it. I saw a lot of nice cars...mostly Toyota pick ups for some reason! I think I saw your car on the way to Mt Haleakala. I got an EJ6 as well with lots of plans. I think you should start with getting all the maintenance done and get the A/C fixed! You'll need that more than anything else down there 
Yea i still got to get my ac fixed. But thanks. Yea Maui everyone is into the toyota pickups. They lower em, lift em. I think more toyota trucks here than civics lol. Which is cool. A little update. I changed my lights in my gauge cluster to red and white. What you guys think? it looks really nice to me. I love it!
And just the other day i powder coated my valve cover. I didnt sand it or nothing, which I shouldof.(FYI Dont be lazy!) lol. But thats why it has light and dark spots. But the color is Metallic Burgundy.
Comments? I think it looks WAY better than stock the Valve Cover.

I took off the heat shield over the header. And there is a crack in the first pipe. I will post a picture up of it but should i get a new header? its the stock one. What could be the problems with the cracked header? thanks!

Update - Just got my LCAs off ebay from a guy in New york. For $30.00. I dont know what brand and they are used but ill post up some pics. Maybe someone will know. Any way ill be ordering new bushings for my shifter and for the LCAs. Does energy bushings fit in any LCAs? Ill also be picking up a strut bar locally.
Still looking for rear tie bars!!! if anyones got.
Ill post pics of the LCAs when i get home.
Oh I also am going to get a new deck. A dvd one. From china. Im starting to sell them and i have a website going up but im getting my samples in soon. Il post pics too. If anyone wants PM me!

I think the volkswagen scene is good iin hawaii
Really? i dont really see that much VWs on maui. I did see a really nice silver one yesterday. It was fast haha.
Yea ill get rims after i get all the important stuff. And a new grill haha.
Yea well i fixed the uneven drop so now its even. Ill post pics up soon. Should i raise up the back and make it higher than the front or leave it even?
But i have no idea when ill have the time to put my LCAs in. They are polished but i might powder coat them same color as my valve cover. What you guys think?
Then i might pic up a strut bar from a guy in lahaina. depends how it looks for $20.
And ill be buying a new header(ebay) because my stock one is cracked. Anyone selling d16y8 header under 100$?
And also buying a short shifter. Whats your opinions on these? Its a single bend steel one coated in nickle. weighs 2lbs. 25$.
And ill be picking up a whole A/C setup from a guy on here for 100$ shipped.
Let me know what you guys think and pics will be up once things get installed.
Slowly but surely it will have progress haha.

I forgot about my own thread haha! But anyway. Fixed the height problem. Its pretty even i think haha. Still on egay coil sleeves 
. Im saving up to buy some coilovers.
Anyway I ordered A/C from Anth EK Civic. Waiting for it to come in and I will have A/C!
Planning on getting shortshifter, and passwordjdm red stitch shift boot. Also changing my muffler from my Apexi N1 to Apexi WS2 muffler. I cant wait. The loudness is killing me.
Anyway thats it for now. Let me know what you think about the short shifter. Its a megan short shifter. Its steel so it should be good.
Also im looking for yellow bulbs for my foglights. Or HIDs for my fogs and headlights. So if you got PM me. Looking for suspension for my hatch too so if you got shoot me offers. Thanks.
