Hi guys,
for those of you that don't know me, the names Nathan, and over the next 18 months there should be a bit going on with my car, so i thought i should finally start up a build thread.
As a bit of background, i've always been a honda guy, starting with an 83' accord, 92' eg si civic, 98' ek4 civic and in 06' i picked up my 04' dc5r with 26,000 km's on it.
From then the car was used as a daily driver, so due to that, and other commitments, mods were kept pretty light on.
Then due to an expanding family, in may last year i bought an 07' crv lux in nighthawk black and the dc5 became the weekend warrior i always had intended it to be and the car now sits on 74,000 km's
Over the last few years though, i have been stockpileing parts for my build and over the next 12 months i hope to get all the drivetrain and engine work done and decide from there where to with the car. I'm very keen to add a ap1 to the garage so funds may have to be diverted towards that soon.
My aim for the car is really just to build a bit of a allrounder, it will see a little 1/4mile, a little track, and a fair bit of hardparking in between.
will try and update with some fresh photos when i get a chance,
thanks for reading,
Nathan
