Re: 1989 Civic DX Project
No endgoal yet, too many ideas in my head to decide exactly what I want to do with it. I do, however, have an LSVtec on the way

Yea, that would be the guy. Of course he isn't returning any of my messages but I didn't expect him to. Hopefully no one buys that other piece of shit he's selling.

Re: 1989 Civic DX Project
Haha, no that piece came out of WV.
As far as future plans, going to build this LSVTEC for turbo. Nothing too crazy, maybe 300-350 hp. Was debating on getting a body kit, hate the way the front bumpers look on these things. Really like the looks of this one, can't decide if I want to just do the front bumper or the full kit.

Also going to find me some 90-91 Civic EX knuckles so I can upgrade to the 10.4" rotors in the front. I have the full front setup from the 94 GSR but all the research I've done says it won't fit without some serious positive camber. Correct me if I'm wrong, would love to switch it all over.

Re: 1989 Civic DX Project
That does look very sexy. In the process of putting a GSR cluster in, possibly some pics tomorrow, afterwards I'll definately research this JDM front.
