                                                   STLSlowEclipse's 1989 Honda Civic

Welcome! My name is Justin and i drive an 89 civic hatchback... the color is rio red(as stated by manufacturer) As of right now  the car has a b18c1(that you see in my old white hatch) from a 95 integra swapped in to it but it had the gold valve covered b18b pictured untill i broke a timing belt about 5 months after i bought it, poly motor mounts, custom short ram with a K&N filter and a b16 tranny. I bought the car off a friend in my car club who pretty much hand built this car from the unibody up, inside there is 96 civic seats, crx dash and door panels, black seude headliner, aftermarket cd player, edelbrock short shifter with a skunk2 weighted type R replica shift knob and infinity 6.5's in kicker panels.

This car is a blast to drive every day(minus having to dodge potholes and apples... yes it's that low) it has adjustable stiffness suspention and adjustable coil overs so it's also fun to tune/play around with

The pics

This was pretty much right after i bought the car

it has stock 14 inch steelies with civic hub caps, password jdm c/f front lip and autozone fog lamps... it also has jdm sidemarkers, tails, door strips and jdm turn signals.

The exhaust is a custom made/welded 3in cat back with an unknown muffler/tip, this car was an 89 but you can see that the normal black strip between the tail lights has been replaced with a newer reflector, this car also has gold lower control arms, tokico illumina struts and skunk2 coil over sleeves that dropped it roughly 2 1/2-3 inches(the struts you see in the next pic are the old ones i took off when i swapped motors(you can see how the exhaust sits on the LCA... not a pleasant noise at times)

as you can see it was pretty clean in there... i havent taken pics of the new b18c yet because well... it's kinda dirty... kinda corroded, and it looks like shit compared to the old motor.(that will change with time.... and money)

Ok new pics of the new motor...(butt ugly right... going to paint the valve cover myself soon and it should look ten times better)

Aww isn't that cute! There's two!........ NO!!! it's not cute having a non running white piece of rust in your driveway that you are slowly cannibalizing parts off of untill eventually there will be nothing left!

Interior!

i try to keep it clean but i work in construction so that is an everyday battle for me
