Wow I thought I was the only person in Alaska building a civic. Nice build, I bet it will be a fun toy in the end.
Ya my buddy came up here and told me I was crazy and we should just burn the fucker to save us the headaches.
j/k, he answered a lot of questions I had about power distribution and what the best way of attacking my unique situation was. He was very helpful and set me straight on a lot of stuff that I wasn't sure about.
I had to take all the wiring diagrams for both cars and highlight the portions that I need, then when each circuit is completed from hot to ground, I'm highlighting them with a different color. That way I'll know for sure that I have all the circuits in place and every circuit is fuse-protected so that the wiring doesn't burn up.
I have got a LOT of wiring done and am so close to having this thing fire up that I can smell rice burning. The only thing that's been holding me back is closing on my new house and setting up the move has been owning me lately.
But after I close next week and get moved in, I'll get my priorities straight, I promise

Wow. I'm browsing at home, so I finally got to see all your pics (firewall at work is a real pain).
You, sir, are my new hero.

I agree.
Parts fit together and slip into place MUCH easier when your drinking...
Plus it makes the bloody knuckles easier to handle...

Check out the "Honda's stash" thread for more pics.
Y'know what, that basic paint scheme would look hella' cool on your cvcc, klyph. I think I remember earlier in here you were going to keep her silver but consider this:
Without the the numbers and graphics, of course.
