Hey everyone, i'm new to this forum, just saying hi, and introducing myself. I currently own (soon to be sold) a 96 Eclipse, body kit, 17's, exhaust, custom interior, etc.. it also had a star stage 2 turbo kit but i sold it a few months ago. I used to own a 91 hatchback that swapped a b16 into, but that got sold last year. Anyway, i just once again entered the honda community with the purchase of a 5th gen hatchback (i think it's a 93). It was totalled and my friend sold it to me for $400 with 2 motors (CX and DX). It needs a TON of work and eventually i will be swapping in a b18b and doing some custom body work and a turbo. I'm picking it up this week, so i'll post some pics so you guys can see my big mess. Hope i can shed some knowledge and also gain some from this site. Thanks for letting me jopn lol. Later

Well, there's a few reason's why i'm going back to a civic. Me and my g/f have a new baby (she's 6 months now). Have you ever seen the backseat in an eclipse? I had to rig the seatbelt and the cushin to get the car seat it because the rear seat dips in, i needed something with a little more room and a flat bench seat with a middle buckle. I'm not a fan of 4 door cars or SUV's so i figured a hatchback would be good. Also, i've always been the biggest fan of civics, i love working on them. My brother also has a 91 hatchback, i help him work on that almost everyday, they're just more fun than eclipse's. Besides, my eclipse has been around the block too much, i've had 2 different body kits, 3 sets of wheels, i've changed the interior 5 times, i went all motor I/H/E and alot of bolt-on's, it's been turbo'd etc.., so i'm pretty much bored with it also. Those are my reasons
