    Default Dear, EF Squad

    Just a head's up. I wanted to throw it out there that as of this past thursday, I finally got the title from JDMJoe and MikesEK for the 1991 Honda Civic DX. So...the new project will begin soon. It'll be slow, at first, because I'll be working on JDMJayDC's Integra at the same time I'm working to break down the 91 DX. However...this thread is to keep everyone posted with the updates. I'm going to allow IA's EF Squad to help me build, and leave a few decisions up to ya'll...so keep an eye out. Things that will be up for grabs by the squad are going to be: brakes, suspension, motor, audio, and project name. Keep an eye out for them soon. Updates on the project will be on a post-by-post basis. Pictures will come post-by-post as I get them, and this thread will soon NOT be 56K friendly.

    Currently: Project is completely stock. All that's been done to it thus far is replacing the driver's side window that was busted out. Interior (almost full intact) is black/gray and stock. The radio is missing, but all else is there. Currently there are only speakers in the front, and the tach-less speedo cluster is in play. Exterior is currently gunmetal with a few, but not too many dents. Being the 91 DX, the bumpers aren't the solid black, but are instead the half-painted ones. The rear is the same, and has a red center garnish that says "civic" with the rear glass wiper, and the coat hanger antenna. All glass is untinted. Paint is in relatively good condition with some sun-dried spots. Rims are the stock 14" black steelies. Brakes and suspension are all stock. Motor is a burnt-out d15b2. The car had a 5spd DX tranny that was left with the seller. Frame is straight with no signs of any real accidents.

    Near-future: Monday, I will be starting the process of gutting the engine bay in prep for paint. This will take some time, and it'll be a couple days before I'll have any REAL updates. As stated...project will be slow at first.

    When it comes to suspension, the only thing worth debating is the spring rates. Get Ground Controls and Konis. End of story.

    I'll keep ya'll posted on the project.

    As of right now, I'm trying to get JDMJay's Integra done, and helping my boss move out of his house and into a condo. My car will see whatever free time I can seeing as it has heat, and my current car doesn't...and I HATE the cold...

    Yeah, I really did luck out. It was definitely a damn steal...

    Currently, it's ALL OEM. Which brings me to my first threads for polls...
