• Before i picked it up


  • I bought this 1990 civic si for $200 in july or august of 07, It had some ugly clear tail lights, battery relocation kit, and didn't have a hood, engine wire harness, gauge cluster, some interior trim, drivers side seat is ripped on the bolster and the seats didnt fit right i think they were out of a crx si, some of the trim was painted white and yellow but previous owner painted over that with black it looks alright but does need to be re done, the shifter/linkage was not connected, there is some rust/rot on quarter panels near wheel wells, and came with crappy rims/tires.

  • After i picked it up


  • I bought the engine wire harness and the shift linkage hooked that up put new ngk plugs/wires in and a oil change, re-mounted the battery relocation kit, put in a different injector resistor box, and put in a new TPS from a d16y7 and it started right up. i also had to put on a new gas door and popper. bought and hooked up the gauge cluster.
