Updated pictures of my car!

[EF You]

its been a while since i posted anything about my civic, and i figured people were getting tired of me linking and posting all my old pictures, so heres some progress, its not much, but its something.


latest shot of the car with the hood on.

hood off


engine bay, but the brake power booster is out for a powdercoating.
.

i know this looks bad right now, but i got sidetracked with moving and didnt have time to finish the bodywork, so now surface rust has appeared. it will be gone soon, and i plan on primering it sometime soon after newyears.




rear brake swap waiting to go on. i sandblasted and recoated each piece with ceramicoat. tokico blue struts, skunk2 coilovers, and all poly bushings


anyway, now that ive settled into my new house/shop well enough, i will get started on my car ASAP.

heres the reasons i procrastinate so dang much on my car. theres too many distractions.


my pooltable, slate tabletop, i recovered it with red ultrasuede, the same stuff i did my headliner and will eventually do my seats in.


my gameroom. my roommate is in there playing games here. we have 4 TVs, one has every nintendo system on it, the next has playstation, xbox and dreamcast, the next one has 8 bit nintendo and colecovision, and the last one has all the sega systems.


heres the arcade booth i made for grand turismo 3. its got a forcefeedback steering wheel and pedals in it, and a 14 inch tv. i am still looking to buy another PS2 for it so i dont have to swap my only one between two tvs. then i wont have those wires hanging out.


heres the games, ive got roughly 350 NES games, about 20 SNES games, 30 colecovision, 15 genesis, 5 saturn, 20 n64, and a buncha ps1 and 2 games. theres some dreamcast too, but not a lot

car looks like its coming along well...

all looks good but IMO that nasty ass wire loom looks like something i shit out yesterday :P

other than that... keep it up.. cant wait to see it when its done..

What engine mods you got done? looks like you got the Type R intake mani.. anything else?

[EF You]

damn, you shit red stuff? you oughta have that checked out. hehehe

seriously though, its a b16a, YS1 tranny, pr3 ecu, and its got a neuspeed header, skunk2 intake mani, AEM fuel rail and pressure regulator with a pressure gauge, MSD blaster coil (not on it right now, still finishing the enginebay) and some Accel wires. i rebuilt the engine myself and did a mild P&P on the head. oh yeah, and i did open up the throttle body a bit more too, just sorta matched it to the mani.
