It is garage kept. Have big plans for it!! (K-is the way)Awesome car, I can't imagine what you paid for this in such a clean example of this gen Civic hatch w/ a stick and that motor.
I hope you have a garage, because if you leave this car on the street for more than a few hours, it's likely going to get stolen.

That’s definitely bothersome and impressive.Awesome, please post the progress.
My buddy's Gen 3 Integra was stolen out of his garage one day, they had to move another car out of the way to get to the Integra. What's interesting is they were clearly professionals, the car they moved out of the way wasn't damaged, the only damage was to the garage door.
That's the only thing keeping me from getting my childhood Integra or Civic, is that I have to park on my driveway and fearful of having it stolen. My E90 M3, no worries in the World.
that because no one wants our e90 M lolllAwesome, please post the progress.

they have no clue
edit:
hell, that reminded me...
there were times where I park my E30 outside my friend's tea house and went to eat with my other friends and forgot to lock the door.
happened many times loll
yeah pop culture and generational thing i guess.Lol, it seems the E46 and F80 are the sweet spot with the youngins these days.
I have literally forgotten to lock the doors on My E90 and even my RAM, could be for days while they sat in the driveway carport. I have been a lot more vigilant with that these days. I check all our vehicles before turning in.
Awesome rides!Shared some in the new owner introduction thread.
Our CRXs. Mine is the all red 1986 CRX SI and the two tone is my wife’s 1985 CRX.

The 85 is stock with 75k original miles, we are doing a little restoration on it as the original owner towed it behind their RV. They purchased it new in October of 1984.
The 86 is far from its my street legal track tow. Have owned it since 1992. Started doing SCCA Solo2 in 1994 and eventually moved on to track events. In 2000 we pulled the 1.5L 91hp single cam and swapped in a 170hp B16. It was in a few magazines back then for the swap. Last year we completed another swap on it to a K24a 2.4l making 220hp at the tires and 200ftlbs. Car tips the scales at 2035 with a mostly full tank of fuel. Pic of the engine bay now.

Wish I still had my 1985 Honda CRX 1.5... that was my first new car.... $9K out the door and could drive from San Diego to Santa Cruz via highway 101 on 1 tank of gas!!!Shared some in the new owner introduction thread.

I feel ya!. The Honda clutch was butter and the shift gate was firm and short. That car was so light and nimble.. Now the hardest I clutch/shift I ever drove was in a '73 Pantera 351C... quite the calve work out and practically had to look at the gate to be sure you were in 3rd not 5th!Man, I wished I still had my Acura Integra, loved that car, was my first new car out of high-school and just after the military. Probably the best shifter/clutch I've ever felt, including in comparison to my previous E46 & E90 M3s, even my previous 997.2.
Most are either well kept high priced examples or beat up jalopies and still overpriced. If I get rich enough one day, I plan on buying a decent one and restoring to like new condition. Then modding it in period to how I wished but couldn't afford to do back then.
God, I realize how old I am now, my 1993 Integra would be 31 years old now! If I went back 31 years when my car was new, it would be 1962. When I think how I viewed "classic cars" cars of 1962 back in 1993 is how people see my 1993 Integra now, that's crazy!

...always adding my personal touches, the blue stripe was normally red on all CRXs. I still can't leave "Stock" alone! 40 years later.
