Hello Kev.

well the engine swap will be a d16 which is the 1.6 sohc vtec engine but then it will be turbo'ed plan to get about 200whp out of this puppy which is plenty out of a small car thats not supposed to be turbo'ed it will be over a long period before complete as its not just a straight swap tbh i choose the wrong base moddel as its a carb engine at the mo there is no fuel lines and the in the car no wiring loom for what i need ect ect so i will have to buy a smashed esi civic and change every thing over that i need to every thing really lol so it aint no weekend job but that is the long term plan cheers for the welcoms

Well I think thats a cracking paint and body work. Big things don`t happen over night unless you have a big pocket full of cash. Welcome to the site mate.
