Nissan_Fanboy's 94 EJ-UNO Build Thread

[Nissan_Fanboy]

This is my 1994 Civic Si Coupe.

I know its not the most amazing civic around, nor is it the fastest, cleanest, but its my civic and i love it.
I have owned this civic since April 2009, i bought it for myself as a present for my birthday. Picked it up april 12th, a day after my birthday.

Clean Car, was from BC since 2006.
Came with

-Alarm
-Neuspeed Springs
-Alpine Type S Speakers
-Alpine Deck
-Del Sol Rims

Looked like this.





My buddy gave me his old short ram intake of his civic.



I decided to clean it up more than the previous owner did. Kept really clean.





I thought that the car would look good on bronze rims.









I decided that the car was just to quiet. Found a 92-00 Megan Racing Drift Spec Exhaust. Sounds great.

So the car sat this way for about 8 months or so because i was burdended with unwanted debt.

Well its all over now, and i can finally sink my teeth into the game.

I picked up a set of Skunk2 Pro-S Coilovers and Camber Kit for a great price.

[Nissan_Fanboy]

I paid a visit to tirebob and he got me start on rims and tires.
I eventually picked up a set of 15x8 +25 Axis OG's wrapped in 195.15R15 Khumo STP's.

The car feels great, handles amazingly.
Thanks again bob.







I got it aligned and everything, all the musts.
I decided to see how it would look damn low.
I like





But now i need to roll my fenders big time, just to lazy!
UGHH!

But this is my car, it means alot to me and i have put alot of time and work into it. I know its not alot, just another civic, but its my civic, NISSAN_FANBOYS CIVIC!


Thanks for reading, if you see me around, throw me a PM.

I have alot of plans for the car, the issue is money.
Ill keep everyone updated, being 17 and having a shit job where your parents don't like when you throw all your money into your car doesn't help.

Thanks

yeah, i would love to actually keep my tires, so i am all about alignments now.
we should roll it one weekend. just need a baseball bat or somethin.
your all about the 5 lug. Im just going to keep it stock, basic. No need for 5

But i wanna find a D16 that is in better condition than mine to turbo!
Getting pretty serious about ordering a turbo kit from ebay, working with it for a bit, then swapping the turbo and wastegate.

[Nissan_Fanboy]

UPDATE:

Picking up a Pacesetter heat wrapped 4-2-1 Header Just for fun, and an Act Clutch from my good buddy sam.

Hopefully picking up some 370cc injectors and then going to order an ebay turbo kit.

Got some information on the turbo kit too to help me keep it running strong.

- Oil re-stricter for the turbo.
- Take apart wastegate and make sure everything is in good working order
- Cast Manifolds Only.

I have a budget of around 1500 i want to try and do under.
The kit will cost me around 800, the injectors another hundred or so, the clutch 100, fuel pump 200, then the rest for tune. Plus i am going to have a 500-1000 fund in case of emergency.

Which kit do you guys think would be better.

INFO: My car does not have AC so i don't need to worry about that.



Question: What do you think i should do to my Z6 matience wise. I want to put some money into things like belts, plugs, fuel filter, ect... what do you guys recommend.

[Sparx]

Do ARP head studs for sure, may as well get a fresh head gasket while thats off, water pump t belt and wouldnt be bad ideas. Plugs ull want to run copper ngks i use a 6 heat range

[nykz]

Not sure if your interested in a new hood or trunk. Price isn't too cheap or anything either but it is obo! Not sure if you've seen it on revscene but here ya go!

Thanks man, ill deffinintlly look into all that.
Over the winter im going to gather all my parts, then either wait for a turbo kit to come up if not, get it off ebay.

But for now im going to look into a Sunroof visor, the cf hood/trunk just because that looks sooooo clean and a couple asthetic things

-Fogs
-Roof Visor
-CF Hood
-CF Trunk
See how the cash flow is, then hit up the turbo gear.

Thanks man, i'm embarrassed though, its deffinintlly not low enough. But im about to raise it for the winter to fender rolling isn't top priority. When spring hits, Im going to try to tuck at least an inch.

I am looking for turbo and a couple asthetic parts over winter, as well as doing some routine matience, which is boring .

[Nissan_Fanboy]

Picked up a Pacesetter 4-2-1 Header Heatwrapped and an Act 6 puck clutch.
Going to put the header in maybe tonight.

[ericchoweg]

if you are going turbo why bother wasting time and money on a header?

[Nissan_Fanboy]
