I picked this car up a virgin about 3 years back from some old ass man for like 900 bucks. Completely stock---White w/ blue interior. Not 1 day went by before it was dumped on some white wheels courtesey of Brucehunglo....
Got the rest of the bandwagon civic stuff....broadway, amber corners, silverstars etc....
Then on order within a few weeks was a cage from KirkRacking.com, and a red momo seat fit tightly with Corbeau belts courtesey of Gregfeder. few hardparking events later she sat like this:

After some problems with an axle I thought the wheels were rubbing So i got rid of them in lieu of some silver Kosei K1s. They were short lived and sold to JDMISACULT...and now the tires still reside on SpoolinLSsols's del sol.

Nice little change...however I needed some better tires as I started to get into AUTOX and performance driving...So i switched them out for the same wheel with softer rubber in white.... and so starts the white on white phase....With that wheel swap came a GSR brake conversion from top to bottom. Stainless lines, Hawk pads, Brembo rotors, Master cylinder, prop valve etc.....Made for some very fun times in pennsylvania...

not too much logner after I picked up a CF hood, a new lip...and some other goodies it finally happened....The thing every honda owner dreads---theft....While it would seem unfortunate....in the honda community I lucked out. They left the car and most of its parts.....unfortunately...I was stuck for a front end.... and i needed some new windows.... Best part is that they cut the harness to the headlights so I had to root around junk yards to find untainted harnesses until I could get my baby back to being just right....

So now after a nice few months of letting it sit I was able to amass some parts and finally got it back on the road. I found my old wheels that I sold a while back, a fresh front end and a nice Snow White paint job. And finally some fresh recaro Top Fuel Seats to make the driving experience that much better.
The final result

Unfortunately after all the theft I am going to have to retire the game....Most recent events that have happened included my daily driver getting broken into in an attempt to use my garage door opener to steal the car. That makes like 3 times in a month so it is now for sale for someone else to continue on the legacy.....
