Its a 93 SI hatch with a b18a1. I have no clue what was done to the engine, but definitely something because it pulls REALLY hard even in fifth. I picked it up cheap because the engine isn't in the best of health, It blows a little bit of blue smoke in first at 7k and its dripping a bit of oil on my drive way.

I have really no clue what kind of parts are in it. But this is what I know it has by looking.

AND DAMN! The suspension, I really want to take a closer look, I took a few corners at increasing speed. Cornered at 50, absolutely NO body roll. 3 gear has a little trouble going into gear.

Very cool man, look over all the suspension, who know something might be Jerry rigged. Just make sure it's safe to drive before you revv to 100k RPMs and do 150mph lap around your block.

Been debating between an eg shell or a dc shell. Not a bad project you Got there, whatd ya pay? Just Make sure you go over every nut and bolt. You can't trust people these days. If I never did that on my db2, I'd either be dead or just be left with a pile of parts. Lol.

I doubt there is much good done to the motor. Most likely just a swap and you think the "pull" is stronger because the motor has less weight (EG hatch compared to DC integra) to pull around. Specially if it is burning oil you are losing some compression numbers through the piston rings and/or valve seals.

None the less, good find. I like the color combo and have a soft spot for civic hatches.

So I got the car up on the lift. The exhaust is total shit, ghetto rigged to the bone. I got the valve cover off and looked around, everything looks really good but its all stock. Not going to lie I was a little dissappointed to not see some cams. I'm going to take off the head tomorrow, maybe. The driver side CV seal is completely destroyed and dripping on to the exhaust. This could be where some of the smell is coming from. Now for the small amount of blue smoke, the spark plug gromments could be attributed but I doubt it. I pull the head and look at the valve seals and the head gasket. I'm doing the oil pan while im at it. How can I tell what head it is? And I guess there are a lot of replicas of the HXS. The guy almost wouldn't give them up. He seriously considered a trade the wheels for a b18C with 40K. I was shocked when he popped the hood on his other civic, total sleeper
