Future Mods:
- HiD/possible Retro – 6k
- Foglights – 01-03 oem civic
- New rims – unknown at the moment
- Front lip – still up in the air on type “r” or “Mugen”.
- Visors – big maybe
- Hood bra/mask – oem
- Full suspension/brake refresh – Bushings, swaybar etc. I would like to keep this car for some time and prefer it to ride baby smooth.
- Then something motor related. I always lean toward boost. So an F23 boosting a safe 10psi turbocharged will work for me. This car is not for speed. Simply to look clean and get me to where I want to go in comfort and style.
- New paint (cant wait to get down here on the list ha) Either black or some odd green.


That is all. Thanks for watching and will have updates up in the near future thanks to all of the DIY info on the site.

Later

Welcome to the site.

So, you put wheels on before you lowered it, at least the suspension is the first thing on your to do list.

Looks like you got a clean car to start with.

Enjoy.

Re: Zen 1998 Sedan LX (56k, warned)

Thanks for all the welcomes!

I am not fairly new to the scene though I have been out of it for sometime. Really just bought the car to go back and forth but the mod bug is biting my heels.

looks clean. drop it and change the muffler
I have a rear section Apexi WS2 in the garage that will be going on it. Maybe not soon though as I may not like the look but the tone is great.

Like the wheels, name?
Not sure. Will check next time I am under the car or decide to take them off.

So, you put wheels on before you lowered it, at least the suspension is the first thing on your to do list.
Negative, the car sits exactly as I got it last year. Trust me when I say that a drop is all that is on my mind lol. Trying to put together the 630 for the coils. (Building money towards getting a house is main priority at the moment)

Re: Zen 1998 Sedan LX (56k, warned)

I am picking up the full Apexi WSII myself in a couple of weeks.

Big fan of that exhaust as well.

Oh ok, so you can't be blamed for the wheels and improper stance! :lawl:

Yeah, there are a couple people on here in that same boat, so it's understandable the mods may take awhile.
