sounds like you ordered all that stuff out of a JC whitney catalog
step 1. find a lake.
step 2. find a boat ramp at that lake.
step 3. put car in neutral and push.
step 4. (optional) get out of car
^^^ lol at "optional"
Back to being stock and slow
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to GKtib® again.
Back to being stock and slow
Optional but not recommended.
wait... How do you push from inside the car though?
Back to being stock and slow
Push with door open while steering.
BETTER THAN THAT CB7...
or park on the incline, then put the car in neutral. Either way, it's a good use of a civic.
Lirl! Or tiburons don't forget tiburons
lol whatever. you're gay like obama.
lol . Go fock rusty rat rod crankshafts and skip the tetanus shot.
TIP: Remove everything you just listed that was on it.
reps for having some sense, even though you did post this in the wrong section. i'ma do you a favor and move it for your
step one, drive to parking lot
step two, set fire to it
step three, call insurance
step four ???
step five PROFIT!
fight the car... and see who gets tired first.
if its the dash or door handles that are painted, take them out and i used crown tuff strip heavy-duty stripper on my GFs car to take the paint off. just put it on there thick an let it sit maybe 5-10min an it will bubble the paint up an you can basically wipe it all off. and it will not mess up the original finish.
First thing I'd do is save up money for when that CVT tranny dies.
As far as the "rice" goes I guess pull interios parts from a salvage Civic. If you want to derice iot by swapping wheels steelies with stock hubcaps are not ricey, unless the car is dumped or you paint the steel wheels or caps.
At least it doesn't have unpainted body kit pieces or anything like that. the remedy for your car's "riciness" sounds pretty simple my friend.
Good luck!
id say put a big honda sticker on the front windshield, get a body kit. altezza lights, angel eyes. and some type S stickers then you should be good
Will as I have told you idk how many times.
New hood
new front grill
stirp the paint off the interior pieces
get it running solid then save up for a swap, drop wheels, and a si lip and youll be set

^ Maybe you should jump instead.
get a lip kit and some bronze gt3s that would look sick bro
Smaller rims, lower it.
new rims
redo interior.......
drop...
liped out and you good
i actually didnt make it. got it from a friend. but i figured it'd make a better death than going into the lake with the civicyour gif fails as the cheese wire gets longer when he jumps in step 4. Way to bea tool ass hat. Here's some reps for you

Basically what every body else is saying, get rid of the rims and get new inteiror. Then a get a nice set of coilovers and then go from there. Paint and body looks alright so focus more on the performance and interior.

go down a dirt road.. make sure your doing around 45 or 50.. 50 just to be safe.. pull the e-break hit a tree, make sure its not the driver side.. call the cops tell them someone ran you off the road. or sell it get a 5spd civic and put a cf hood on it, good looking rims and little motor work, turbo?

i actually don't think it looks terrible. loose the rims. lower it. get a nice jdm lip and some other jdm shiit and you'll be fine.
Seriously I opened the topic up expecting to see something pretty ricey, and to my surprise I just see a stockish looking (not in a bad way) Civic on some admittedly cheezy 17'' wheels with rubber band tires.
Wheels and interior swap/paint strip should do the trick man.
I know the "kill yourself" stuff might be funny to the trolls, but seriously the car isn't that bad. At least you're trying to make it better.
Good luck!
i just think the interior is rice. ill have pics soon. i want to either fix the auto tranny or make it 5 spd. but idk which will be cheaper. also my check eng. light is on... i think its bc of the tranny. hell idk... but at least its getting 210 miles a tank with the f'ed up tranny. its way better than my truck.

selling it to buy a 5 speed would be a much better idea
uhh.. transmissions wont make you have bad gas mileage.
paint or replace interior pieces if you think it is rice.
the wheels are ugly, good thing IA has a huge for sale forum and a lot of honda/acura parts.
i'm not going to tell you what to do with your car but if you dont like it, fix it.
different wheels and lower with lip
i appreciate all the feedback fellas. but my current problem is unemployment, so as soon as i get my new job, ill be fixing my civic, then my 240. ive heard manual tranny's get better gas mileage and i cant stand driving an automatic car. i just want to know which would be cheaper. fixing my transmission problem or a 5 spd swap. the auto tranny i have is missing 1st and 3rd, and reverse sometimes. its slow as hell but it gets me from A to B you know?
1990 cb7: grocery rocket
dont do anything.
your JDM YO!
