1995 civic coupe

Post by civicdanny » Wed Dec 12, 2012 7:50 pm

hi there peoples, I've owned this civic ej2 for 1 yr now havent done much at the moment, had few bits on then had to sell most of it as had money problems but turned it around and started buying parts and storing them in spare bedroom

here are pics when I bought it:

Image

my d16z6, already in wen got it:

Image

then I bought amber corners, spoon replica front lip, bonnet bra:

Image

Image


few month after bought some fat fives that were refurbished in black:

Image

a month after bought some scooby seats then got em welded to my eg rails by a friend:

Image

I finally got bored of my fat fives and tried something different, borbet a alloys which needed refurbishing but didnt have the money at the time:

Image

as my car failed mot I decided to put in my garden(soon to be drive) and I decided to keep it off road, use my wifes car so I can save up more money for parts
my car looks sad as ive took off front bumper, radiator off, the rad hoses but will be getting upgraded rad and hoses, so how it looks now:
Image

ive also took the power steering pump off and I bought a kit off here so the flow and return on the steering rack are looped together, so I loose weight and gain a few horses:)
for the last couple of months ive recently purchased some parts which are stored in spare bedroom that will be going in a month or 2 are:

amber corners
oil catch can
upgraded d16z6 plug leads
some dtm mirrors
adjustable camber arms
beaks replica brace
D2 lca's
jdm rear recess plate

AND my favourite wheels of all time which i bought from nath on here:

Image

Image

then two of the wheels had some nice rubber round em:
Image

and fitted 1 to see how it looked:

Image

took it straight off as i'm going on hol soon and there is now way i'm leaving em on while i'm away lol plus other 2 need tyres on but cant put em on as i need to put on my 114.3 hub conversion on the rear.

parts fitted:
adjustable camber arms
amber corners + headlights
DTM mirrors

bought and waiting on delivery:
Teg radiator
B18 throttle body
green TRS tow strap(delivered)
green radiator pipes
open ended wheel nuts(Delivered)

Stuff to do:
put on parts when they are delivered
put on 114.3 rear conversion on (trailing arms, cables, hubs)

Want to do:
paint trailing arms
paint arms (holding front hubs)
clean inside all arches, underseal and paint

that's it for now, thanks

Hey Danny. As I said I love the EG coupe shape and you've got it in the best colour too! :D

I like the front lip as well, suits it well :)

Definitely think you should consider the H22a swap if you're mate is able to help you ;-)

I had one of these as a runaround a year or so back.
Unfortunately someone had done a dodgy fibreglass repair on the rear arch which ended up rotting out the complete inner arch and is wasnt economical to fix it. mine was also black, definately the best colour

Hey Dan. You totally confused me updating the first thread.

Looking forward to seeing this thing being built back up. I definitely think you should consider Plastidip for the rims for a temporary fix until you can get them powdercoated or something. You can even do it with the tyres fitted and just peel the excess off the tyres ;-)
