Well i bought my car in early march for a bargain (I MEAN BARGAIN!). I should have waited until i found a better one but I JUST COULDN"T.

Car:
Honda Civic Breeze 1992
KMS: 200xxx or so
Transmission: Manual
Modifications: Stock

I know its a carby and i will get alot of abuse for that but i LOVE the color yellow =D

This is how it looked when i got it. I should have taken more photos but never planned to post it as a thread.

First thing i did for the car was to change the interior out as the previous owner had mismatching interior seats + breeze interior :thumbdwn: (IMO). I got a decent pair of GLI interior seats and popped them in and it made a BIG difference in the way it looked.

Hated the bonnet that came with the car. Terrible welding job with stupid vents that dont vent. So i found a user on OH selling a carbon fibre bonnet for a awesome price :)
to add the car was 4WD height, wish i took photos to show. It was terrible (looks wise) but great for speed bumps :p
Slowly the car was coming along.

Loving the JDM look for EG's i took that same route in hope of making my car look yum.
Ideally i was planning to do an engine conversion to a b16a as soon as i bought it, but having a GF, part-time work, uni and end of year holiday made things very hard.
I decided to save for the holiday first and postpone my conversion till next year, car still runs great and takes me to A-to-B. i can wait :)

Modifications since date of purchase.

This is how it looked as of this afternoon. I was at my neighbours with DIY painting for the car. We did the rims and touched up the grill for the car.

Can u spot what else we painted?

Since im not planning to gain bigger power until next year, i thought might aswell get the car ready for to handle the extra speed :cool:
So i've planned to work on the cars handling now since im quite happy with the way it looks.

Struts front and rear
Exhaust to be coool :D

Great car man! Love the new black wheels. How about painting the side moldings the same yellow as the rest of the car.

+1 for colour coded side moldings!

LOL its a subtle upgrade. the previous owner had worn front prelude seats that sat really low with worn bolsters. the rear was the breeze seats which were dirty. i personally didn't like the contrast with front and rears being different so i settled for a decent complete set. =D
but your right, doesn't count as an upgrade.
could of got SI seats but i didn't seem to like it. LOL.

u need ITR =D

LOL thats still a dream for me. buying rear seats alone is a expensive upgrade + have no money to afford bucket seats. gosh they are expensive.
would look mint though
