ATTN NORTHEAST EF OWNERS!!!!
I am resurrecting my EF Honda meets in PA! This time it will be at the Sonic Drive In, in Morgantown PA, see flyer below "July 12th"!
Welcome to my Car Domain page! I have been involved in the Import Scene "Now known as Tuner Scene" since 1995. I started out with an 81 Honda Accord that I started to play around with till I learned there were no parts available for my Accord. After a few years of owning the Accord I sold it for my 1990 Honda Civic
I bought the Civic in 96 in my senior year of High school. I was not planning to do too much to it; it was just going to get me back and forth to work and school. The Civic was a DX model with 30k miles on it, garaged by the previous owner. I bought the Civic at the time for 7K. It was a bit over my budget but I just loved the color "Chianti Red" and the car was mint.
After about a year of owning the Civic I started to fix her up. I started off with the basics at the time money was very tight. Window tint, GTS headlight covers, Rain visors, a Bra and a Brospeed exhaust. At the time I had alot of comments about the exhaust, most people around the area never even knew anyone made a performance exhaust for a Honda
In about 97-98 I was still going to school "Tech school" and working part time. I bought a RS Akimoto intake, American racing wheels "13inch Hot! hehe" and a few small add ons.
A year or so later I started to finally make some money working full time. One of my biggest mods "and most expensive!" was the engine swap/tranny conversion. I went from a 1.5L Auto to a 1.6L DOHC ZC with a Si Manual tranny. This cost me at the time around 3k! OWW! But it was worth it! Of course a few years later I got bored of that and added a Turbo on top of that.
Many exterior mods where added through the years also, Wings West Body kit, SIR spoiler shaved emblems custom made Hood etc. I really started to get involved in the show scene and showed for about 2 years without winning anything, and then finally in 2001 I took home my first trophy. I now have about 14 trophies "mostly first place YAY!"
It was not only the show scene that I was interested in it was also the bonding with fellow 4th gen Civic and CRX owners. I organized my first car meet in about 2001. My first meet was held at Maple Grove Park in PA and about 30 cars showed up! Major success! I had 3 more meets after that and the last meet had almost 60 cars! Unfortunately the amount of cars/people became to big for me to handle and decided to end my meets a few years back. I met some really great people at these meets and I do miss having them.
I also created a web page back in the early days called The 4th Generation Honda Civic Page. This was one of the first web sites out there devoted to the 88-91 Civic "might be the first!" I gave the website to Amy "AKA Ladynredsi", the website is no longer operational.
My final goal with this car is to have it in a major auto magazine, Honda tuning, Super Street, Turbo Mag, etc. These are the magazines that I always looked up to for my car and would love to get my car in print. If you know anyone that can help me out with this goal please feel free to let me know :)
I hope this page gives you a little bit of history of my love for the Honda Civic. I have included many pics of my Civic with mods! Enjoy! Check out www.Automotionce.com for more pics of my car along with my crew
