86 Civic Si

Post by Na-spirit » Sat Feb 04, 2023 9:03 pm

The big suspension/brakes and k swap overhaul is about to start on this car.

I did the paint and body on it last year.. Champ white, thin side moldings, repainted all the black trim and dropped on Tein Coilovers. I'll have a updated list of my parts collection soon.

Going to be restoring my te37s to a darker color also, paring those up with some 205/50 Nangkang Ar-1.. going to look meaty! can't wait for that. Wheels are 15x6.5 +35.

I have a k24 longblock and a LSD 6 speed to go with it. I'll be posting up my whole learning experience with this car.. let the confusion begin. Will need all the help I can get!

That's a super nice 86!
I haven't looked at the red pepper thread but it may be referencing the vtec academy YouTube videos where they were putting a k series in the 1st gen CRX SI
