just checkin in, i have posted a few times been been a member since 08. currently have an nhbp 05 ep3 with a dc race header, 16" rota torques and i just got a set of h&r springs to put on it. also own a celestial blue pearl 91 crx dx restoration project and a brand new 2011 crystal black pearl civic lx-s.

some pics:
old pic still looks the same, since its rolled over to 75k miles i think its time to start modding it.

rescued and brought back from the brink, took me 3-4 months to put back all (or most) the oem parts. reinstalled a/c, charged and is ice cold, its got an mpfi swap with a d16a6 and a jdm rear seat. everything is oem, right down to the honda tape player. only piece im missing is the oem intake tube, one rear mudflap and its got tein springs with kyb agx's.
theres still alot of cleaning and rust repair to do, overall i think its super clean.

notice the back rest doesnt match the bottom, i recovered it myself, also repaired the torn up upholstery on the drivers seat.

thanks man, ep3 has got 20% all around, honestly i got a stupid idea to sell the crx and get a miata. luckily i quickly came to my senses and kept the crx. :msmile:
