very nice! Do you have any more pictures of the suspension? What model ground control coilovers and how are they mounted?

if you have any interest in a free EK1 engine (was running before I pulled it out), let me know. I'm in northern VA, near Dulles and need someone to take this engine and clean up my garage :)

Great looking car. Something like that is what I´m aiming for.

Thank you for the inspiration.

Nice work! it looks like your civic is going to pounce on an unsuspecting victim with that stance :twisted: Im up in Richmond and would love to see that car. Are you going to do any racing?

The matching color of the bumpers helps add to that compact look. I like it! I like it all! :D 8)
Who makes the side mirrors, don’t believe I’ve seen them used before.
Is that a wagon sway bar I see in the suspension view?

Please keep the pics coming!
:D
