    Default 97 Civic hatch update...*yawn update*

    I think I have turned this car around so far. I may be ordering new seats, carpet, harnesses, harness bar, steering wheel set, and some suspension goodies this weekend. The interior smells and the seats are not in bad condition but have seen better days. I am hoping to attempt Auto Cross so some new restraints and seats would be a plus as far as safety goes. It is not very comforting to have a head rest that wont lock down and the back support moves when enough pressure is applied. My seat belts are also starting to become loose and frayed.

    There have been a few nice modifications that are not pictured.

    A GSR rear disc conversion is on the way as of now. Once all of my bearings, bushings, tires, and loose interior pieces are replaced; the car should be a little more solid and safer.

    I have gone from this:


    To this(Hood is a Seibon OEM CF hood) :
    (919): so I was just driving high and I stopped to let a pinecone cross the road because I thought it was a hedgehog.

    besides the horrible choice of stickers on your windshield, looks nice!

    Wheels are loads better. I don't understand the draw of a CF hood, but it's your car.

    Always wanted one and the original was a little damaged, so I thought "Why not?".
