Fit is under the knife for the swap! Here’s my ride until then— Pop’s car doesn’t look too shabby

That's exciting! What's the turn around time?

Civic looks clean.

Buddy said he was going to try and knock it out by this weekend hopefully no hiccups but I asked if it could get done before Christmas and he said absolutely haha. Going to be the best Christmas gift to date.

And thanks!

Sick! Can't wait to see it. That's a good buddy, I may need his contact info for when I have questions.

Thanks! I’ve never washed the engine bay like I’ve done to my truck but I feel like I kept it pretty clean

There's so much ROOM! Looks great.

Are you running AC with this?

Thanks! Fisheye is a bit deceiving but eyeballing it I feel like there’s enough room for a supercharger in that gap

Yes! All creature comforts will be kept as it will continue to be my daily

Yes true. I believe there is PLENTY of room for a SC in there!

Did he have to cut the front support to fit the AC compressor?

Yep! He normally does a lot less than what he did here but he did it to make it easier for me to remove the belt

awesome, looks great in there. Looks like you can still run a shifter boot too?

Thanks! And yes, I've seen people run the oem shift boot with it-- but I kind of like seeing the red and the mechanical features so I may go the shifter plate route haha.

Tires needed replacing so I found this set of Crimson Club Linea Speciale’s with decent tires for cheap— back on 17’s! Completes the greyscale exterior she’s got going

Realized the tires were terribly old so we swapped them out and bumped up to 215/45’s while we were at it— I am really loving how she’s sitting now!
