    Wink my revized_DX *pics included!

    well thought it was appropriate for a name change!
    marcsed6, no more!


    i got this hatch on my wife's bday in 2006 and have spent just about every moment of spare time and even time at work getting paid (hell yeah ha ha!) to either plan, work on, research, imagine, network, discuss, troubleshoot, clean, winterproof this damn thing while in michigan, cry, cuss, bleed, get pissed off, brag about, was embarrassed at times, proud as hell at other times, dumbfounded, the list can go on and on about this car! you name it it happened. its my only hobby! i love this car and hate it at the same time! its like a woman! but i have persisted and have become about 65-70% happy with it. but all i really wanted and have made it known that i just want something fun to drive and know that i made it!



    1990 Honda Civic DX
    rebuilt sohc zc (roughly 800 miles on engine)
    MPFI swap
    zc/si tranny (aprox. 1500 miles on rebuild)
    dc header
    self bent/welded 2" exhaust (all the way back)
    16" ADR's w/TOYO 205/40's
    tokico struts and springs (2" drop)
    red ebay lca's
    4 pc. ebay strut bar set
    91 crx si dash swap
    94 civic arm rest ( ha ha )
    bride short shifter
    crx si factory steering wheel (2 spokes just not cutting it!)
    clear corners and bumper lights
    9005 headlight upgrade (helps me see at night)
    other little tweeks here and there....

    other mods preparing for...
    rear si disk swap
    got tint for my windows
    getting chipped ecu within days
    have the calipers off legend for my front brake upgrade
    front lip from same legend to replace my 1/2 ofa home depot lip(ftw! ha ha)
    plan to make a custom wire harness (ecu to engine)
    did someone say v-tec?

    i have a few little things here and there i want to do and change but like i said i am happy with it for the most part and with z6 head in my eyes my engine bay will be complete for the most part!

    im 33 married with 3 kids guys, this car is my escape from that sometimes...keeps me sane! ha ha! my wife is cool with it and my 9 yo daughter gets into with me and has always loved my cars.

    well the car was hit on left front before i got it and i guess it pushed the bumper up a little bit.? idk, thats one of my things to do...not worried about the cosmetics that much yet gonna upgrade brakes and finish with suspension before i start making it look all pretty and shit ha ha. thank everyone for the posi comments, im waiting on that one person though cuz we all know they are out there...the header, oh that header, its already fading, gotta take it back off and redo it. i got an A8 header to put on it temporarily but thinking about just polishing it, but the orange will match the paint i want to go with... block and head are done graphite, was just trying to keep up with the paint i got now. but it looks nice and smooth i think anyhow!

    Holy hell, dude! Thing looks stellar! I LOVE the choice of rims. I wouldn't have done the orange header or cluster, but hey, to each their own.

    She REALLY looks good, man, I like what you've done with her! Future plans?

    Your kid looks big and healthy! Nice work. Not sure how people have time for wives, cars, AND kids!

    Really like what you've done with it, man. Sadly, I don't have my EF's anymore, but I might be getting back in the game some day.
