Default My car... inside/outside 56k beware.

Here are some pics of my car.. before paint, during and after.


When I first bought it... 145km's on it. Already had I/H/E Gude cam, clutch and flywheel.


At my uncles body shop in sudbury Ontario Canada. As you can see lots of work needed to be done.


More of that work...


The end result.




Interior Shot.


Ractive Guages.. volts and oil psi.

Coming this winter... rear disks from a 90 crx Si!

Me likey I want to paint my car so bad because it is that ugly *** purple that honda produced from like 93 to 95. I hate it. However, it is always clean and the paint is shinny as hell. I get a lot of compiments on it because of originality. what color blue it that? code?

Ready for the flames...

-Ever heard of lowering springs?
-Jesus get a front lip on there, looks way better
-Is that a "blue" shift boot?, I have a black one if ya need one
-Its always a good idea to keep a close eye on Battery Voltage
-Blue wire loom, dear lord, did someone have a gift certificate at pep boys?

Ok, haha, sorry mike had to do it :P

Now for the compliments

-I really dig the paint... alot, in fact its one of my fav colors
-I see corna's in the corner... good job

Btw, the disc swap totally not worth it, trust me I did it. Just weighs down the car, I dont think it stops any better at all. Cosmetically it looks cool.

Jeff, thanks for laying it down. I think the paint looks like a real good paint job.
