    Ditch the tinted corners and tails. Same with that DIY lip. Looks pretty good so far, I don't mind the hood spacers, I think it does make it look more aggressive, and with cleaned up fenders it will all tie together.

    We all know that those little D series need all the help they can get, so the hood risers aren't a bad idea, hell, probably increases the gas mileage too. Good start though, and welcome to Stance|Works.

    yea that was me thanks for the love man.

    had time and installed my blackworks control arms, the subframe, tie bar and sway bar will be next on my list. After i buy my seat ill finally start working on the engine, planning on doing a h22 swap, but might change my mind and just stick to a d series engine instead ( i really dont care much to make the car fast but it will still have a turbo when im done).




    my friend sent me this picture he found on google, big ups to who ever took this, caught my my homie slipping lol

    I appreciate all your inputs. I put the cooler/hood spacer on for a more aggressive look, I know they are pointless right now but im sure when I start working on the engine they will come in handy. I personally love "ridiculous" camber and spacers will be added, but I'm also going to take advantage of the room for my next set of wheels I'm going for which are going to be 15x10s. Thanks again tho

    I love wagovans, I just don't see the point in the propped hood. It'll be a lot cleaner without it, nonetheless, nice transformation.

    I feel like the only thing you did right was the paint color and slamming it, all the other little mods you do make the car look and feel... cheap. Especially the tacky stickers.

    If you ditched the propped hood and oil cooler (it looks ridiculous on a car with a stock motor) and got rid of all the tinting on the lights, you could probably pull it all off as a low-buck car to bang around in. The rear camber looks to be incredibly excessive for your wheel and tire sizing, but some people love ridiculous camber- nothing a pair of spacers couldn't fix.

    I give you a hat tip for saving a car from being a pile of rust. However, if you're trying to make it an impressive "show" piece that will get attention... this is not the best way to do it.

    I would just be repeating everything he said ^^.

    Those fenders... yikes. Good job cleaning up the rust though.

    Not a bad start. Some advice: the stickers take away from it and the tinted lights are meh. You could do an AWD K swap. Not many have been done but that will just add a whole lot more to this and really fuck with people's heads. I'm assuming you're planning on fixing the fenders and other odds and ends right? Also, please dial in less camber in the back. The sunk wheels just look wack.

    started a topic honda civic wagon

    honda civic wagon

    whats good everyone, im sorta new to modding cars, ive only had my license for a year now and owned 2 cars. My 1st car was a 1984 corvette, i got tired of wasting money on gas and also i really couldnt do much to a vette so i bought this....



    I chose this civic because of how rare they are and how amazingly sexy . anyways it had a lot of rust and really bad smell, only upgrade it came with was a ebay intake. Im just going to skip to where im at currently at and list the upgrades

    upgrades-
    drill slotted rotors
    god speed coilovers type rs
    front and rear skunk2 camber kits (rear camber was chopped and shortened)
    c piller bar/ front and rear password jdm sturt bar
    NRG harness bar
    HIDs
    mishimoto oil cooler
    14x8 -16 bassett wheels on 175/65 federal
    ktuned short shifter with mugen shifter
    mugen 3 steering wheel with quick release
    mugen pedal set
    custom exhaust
    exedy stage 1 clutch
    password jdm hood spacers
    extended studs with zerg industries lugs
    lastly bought a 2nd wagon to fix rust and dent repairs, it was freshly painted (the guy that painted it did a shit job, i dont like how it came out but it will do for now).
