My New Car

Here she is...Stock but that will change as I get money. Like I said in the other thread there is an Apexi n1 exhaust in the mail for it. Its a 1995 Civic Coupe EX VTEC...pretty snappy too



And the engine, It needs a little cleaning up because it came from down the shore so the nuts and bolt have some surface rust from the salt-water air.

Looks like the body is in really good condition. It has less dents than my 99.

I was cleaning up to the engine yesterday and I painted the valve cover...I think it looks pretty hot, Tell me what u think

Edit* the airfilter is on the stock piping coming from the intakemanifold because I had it laying around. I am puttin a new full AEM intake soon

[Blowncivic1320]

I also have one question. Can I take the heatsheild off of the exhaust manifold? I dont know if it looks better or worse without it.

A great car slowly starting to look like rice. Please, please don't destroy that clean looking ride with little apc trinkets and cheap tricks. Go all the way or don't go at all, and take off all that red crap. That valve cover looks awesome though... too bad you're losing hp with that filter now being in the hot engine bay.

Here is another new picture...I dont think the little wire covers look bad it adds some personality to the engine bay. there will be plenty of real stuff being done also (where do u see any APC stuff???)

yeh it looks good, my paint isnt in that good condition so im going to get my whole car painted and body kit installed tomorrrow

Pretty clean. I say leave the heatshilds on and just clean em or get em sand blasted till you get an aftermarket header.

I don't... yet. Where did the red hoses go? Blue looks a little better I guess. If you want the heatshield to look better you can buy a can of high-temp engine paint for a few bucks and spray it black, that would be better.

Yeah i think i mite do that along with the intake manifold and all (maybe silver)

I need to do it to my shield too. No way am I spending $400+ on a new header for like 5hp when my stock exhaust manifold already has a 2.5" collector, so I might as well make it look good.

[RoBoDEATH]

looks nice, just take it slow, i think it will turn out pretty good

[Blowncivic1320]

Thank you for all the positive comments, I am gonna do the heatshields today so expect another picture later
