Just got my new hatch recently and thoght i would show it off a little. Just did a major service on it today. T-belt, coolant, water pump, brake and clutch flush, wires, cap, etc...the whole deal. She purrs like a kitten now. It is copletely stock, like i like it....for now:) I am gonna work on the suspension first, then focus on a swap. If anyone has any info on an ODBII swap, let me know. I am not too knowledgable about OBDII swaps. Anyhow, here are some pics.

thanks for all the comments. Oh and for seige911 its a 97 dx 92000 miles and i got it for 4500 out the door at my dealership. I thought they might cut me a better deal considering i work there and they only gave 3200 for it on a trade in, but everyone is out to make a dollar. oh well.

Yeah, still, it's not a bad price at all for that new of a car with decent mileage... I just bought a 98 civic ex sedan for $2000, but it had some major body damage, which I am currently in the process of bondo-ing... It's definitely worth the work though, they're nice cars.

dunno, but my 96 dx doesn't have PS either... i LOVE not having it, and i'll miss it when i have to change cars again (hopefully not for a long time).
congrats on the new car, man- i love my car (beaten though it is) and i know you'll love driving yours!
funny, though- i notice that your shift boot is slipping down like mine was before i changed shifters; those little plastic clips must break pretty easily.

Hey guys I'm new here, I have a 98 hatchback, and I was thinking about doing the whole "type r" conversion thing. First thing first is engine swapping. I am thinking about getting a b16b engine for it, and I want to know if there are any rules and regulations on engine swapping. Please let me know. Honda 4 lyfe!!!

Honda :) They are stock ITR wheels. Acually, Enkie prolly makes em, since they make most of honda's nicer wheels for them.
