I've been working on this build since about mid-January and figured I'd post up my build thread on here as well. LMK what ya'll think.

A friend of mine gave me a 90 Civic Si for free so I have decided to do a light build on it and see how I like it. I'm broke and in college at the moment so this build isn't going to be anything crazy but I think it will make a nice DD. Anyway, here's the plan for now.
LS swap (lsvtec will be done later)
Tokico HPK shock/spring kit
ES master bushing kit
I/H/E (for now)
Boost (will be done once I get a diy kit assembled)
Anyway here's some pics. As you can see it is pretty stripped at the moment. I also have to strip off the body kit he was in the process of putting on and repair the rear driver side tail light since they had cut out the metal to install some RSX tails. Other than that and some very minor cancer (esp for WI) the chassis is pretty clean and should make a decent project.
passenger side
driver side
front view
rear view (you can see where I need to weld metal back in for the stock tail light)
interior view (it's completely gutted at the moment)
sunroof
top view
doors (one door had been covered w/ fiberglass and dense foam for custom WB kit so I have the pleasure of stripping all of that off and returning it to stock)
this is about the extent of the rust which is very little for a WI car
B18A w/ B18B head and YS1 trans
DC sports 4-1 header
Tonaka swap mounts
Assortment of DA wiring harnesses
2 OBD0 dizzys and 1 OBD1 dizzy (all came w/ swap)
Tokico HPK shock/spring kit and ES master bushing kit
The seats are pretty clean although the seam on the driver side needs to be resewn
The majority of the interior pieces
B16 shortblock that came w/ the car. (have all the parts, just need to put it back together)
That's all for now. I got it moved over to my shop and took it off the trailer today so provided it's not too cold this weekend, I will be working on putting it back together and hope to at least have the suspension and interior put back in this weekend. After that and depending on my class schedule I want to get the engine in and running next week/weekend so I can take it out.
On a side note I do still need an OBD0 B18 ECu if anyone has one for sale. That's pretty much all I need to finish the swap.
