Restoring a $300 Honda Civic On A Budget! | EP. 6

welcome back to simple builds this is episode 6 of Reviving a $300 Honda Civic so that we can give it away to one of you guys have an awesome daily that looks good and also hopefully lasts you a long time this is going to be a car that's cheap enough to maintain that you can afford insurance and gas on this is going to be an awesome car for one of you guys as you've seen we kind of saved this car from the scrapyard we've done a bunch of things over the last couple episodes to make sure that it runs and drives good and it's going to be something that's reliable transportation for one of you guys and now we're getting into the real fun stuff we just got it back from paint as you see it looks really nice now now we're going to make it look the part we got some new wheels from con IG here and we got uh blocks racing coilovers you can pick up all these parts from Karma speed.com we got a couple other exciting parts coming from them as well thank you guys for helping us out with this build be sure to check them out and we'll talk about them a little bit more later in this video without further Ado let's start on the suspension and then we'll jump onto the wheels we got to get the tires mounted and balanced so let's get started oh man that's heavy should be fine triple oh [Music] oh these look really nice I'm excited to try these out uh they got monot tube design they have the complete upper Mount which is nice you don't have to mess with any of that you know that just not here on the top always sucks to get off you have to deal with compressing the spring all that nonsense so you don't have to deal with that which is a huge selling point for me me at least obviously it comes with ride height adjustment like any coilover and you got 32-way damping which is really exciting these should be a really nice upgrade for this car these look really cool and uh I like the color way that they got here going on you guys can pick these up at caras speed.com that will help support me uh disclaimer uh just started working a little bit more with carpe.com I love what they're about and everything that those guys value about the car community and cars in general so I'm excited to be working with those guys over there on this build and hopefully more builds in the future so go check out carpe.com get yourself a set of these blocks coilovers that again will help support me if you guys buy stuff uh through the links in my description they're going to help me and give me a kickback as well so uh they're really sharing the wealth there uh you know some guys that are really helping push forward positivity in the car Community which is what I'm super uh passionate about then you can go check out a couple of their parts on there and I'll show you some more parts that we got going on this car that uh we did get from carpe.com so I appreciate any support that you guys give to them cuz in return it is help me as well to continue to make cool content like this for you guys and give away cars like this for you guys as well so without further Ado we're going to throw these coilovers in the car it should be pretty straightforward install and I can't wait to see how these things look on the car especially with the wheels oh man this thing is going to look so good I can't wait to show you guys how this thing comes together we also got a bunch more parts on the way let's go ahead and jump on to these coilovers and throw these [Music] in [Music] all right if anyone is wondering we're done down here we just had one 14 mm bolt right there that was plugged in there that holds the wishbone onto the actual strut here and then we got a 17 mil nut with a 17 mil bolt right here on the bottom of the wishbone and now we're going to lower it down get the top two on the top [Music] hat and there we go there's one out and there is no [Music] two man he looks so good look at that on the red paint fresh fresh I love this fresh brakes everything looks good it's exciting let's throw these up in [Music] here and here is the satisfying part boom PL it in right here couple ug [Music] duas that is all finished up so these look really nice so that is all wrapped up in the front this car is going to feel really nice and you can again you can stiffen it up as much as you want and you can soften it up as much as you want with a damping uh adjustability on these now we're going to run onto the backs I believe I can lower this arm here for the control arm uh this one here and then that'll drop down or I might have to lower this one I'm not quite sure so so let's crank onto the backs get these ones out we'll compare them see how they look make sure the adjustability is good and the ride height is set and then we'll throw the new ones in and the last video you guys saw Tech Ron's high mileage fuel system cleaner in today's video like I mentioned episode 6 they are also sponsoring today's video very excited about this and uh this is the Techron complete fuel system cleaner let me tell you a little bit more about this now you might be thinking Mr builds what are you going to use this on you only have high mileage Vehicles cuz you're poor and you like pieces of garbage that break down a lot well today we're using techr complete fuel system cleaner in a special guest let me introduce you to someone this is not my truck but it is my little brothers so we're going to be using this Techron complete fuel system cleaner on his 2018 F-150 so here's a couple key benefits of this stuff it's going to clean restore and protect the entire fuel system you have powerful detergents that break up and clean away way uh stubborn carbon deposits so that's going to maximize your fuel economy which everyone loves to Save A Buck it's also going to maximize your engine power which everyone obviously loves more ponies so if you were wondering why your car might feel a little sluggish this is going to help you to restore that power and acceleration this stuff also helps if your fuel gauge sensor is dirty that's going to help clean that up and help restore the operation of that gauge and of course we're all good people we care about the ozone layer and the emissions using this stuff helps minimize harmful exhaust emissions and it also helps to protect against corrosion in the fuel system so whether you do drive a car with 3,000 or 300,000 Mi you can trust the cleaning power of the Techron brand so thanks again so much to Techron for keeping mine and my family's Vehicles safe and healthy and you can use the link right here to

give you guys the update car is now on the ground sitting pretty low uh we got the suspension all wrapped up so I'm going to get a couple b-roll Clips I'll show you guys what the wheels look like and then we will throw them on this car we'll pull it off and show you how it looks [Music] I'm super stoked about these wheels these are sent out from Koenig they' have been a longtime friend and sponsor of the channel so once again I appreciate you guys for helping us out and supporting our builds let's check these out we got the kig ultr GS these are in a carbon bronze metallic color which I think is going to look so good on this red these are 15 by8 plus 36 offset so I think they're going to set this car off real nice L get rid of these old stock wheels that we got on here super stoked let's crack these open and take a better look at them and then we're going to run these over to our tire shop and uh get some tires thrown on [Music] here so you guys are going to have brand new Wheels brand new fresh meat uh to get you on the road driving safely handling good and also looking real nice as well and then that oh my God that is is going to be so sick quick side note you can pick these wheels up over at caras speed.com the link will be in the description tires are mounted on the wheels and these things look absolutely insane woo man these look good and we got some pretty sweet tires as [Music] well all right so like I said Koenig sent out these wheels we got the tires mounted up 15 by8 plus 35 and then we got the pretty nice tires here hooked up one of the local shops uh he is going mobile soon I'll show you guys more about his brand coming real soon uh cuz we might be using him for some tires mounting and balancing and then you guys locally can use them as well but Venus V2 concept twos uh by hand cook these are some really nice meats and the size here is 20550 so these are looking really nice really meaty I'm hoping that everything these are a squared setup I hope it all fits up nicely on our car once again thank you so much to KO for hooking us up like always with these wheels as you guys saw I don't know if you saw actually but we got the banner uh from kig here just set it up so you guys can see so that's super dope thank you guys kig for your continued support I think I'm going to hang up a couple banners here as you guys might have seen in my Instagram story we got our wall fully fixed up thanks to my brother Jared he came out here did some construction work worked as magic and this is all clean this all the conduit is sprayed nice and clean there was a bunch of holes in the wall so that looks really good super stoked on that now it'll look better for thumbnails and for just just videos in general I love doing shop um upgrades like this makes a big difference slowly but surely we're getting there hopefully we can get a couple other banners conic Vivid vinyl up there uh some other sponsors that we got that help us out along the way so that would be really nice make sure to go check out the link in the description you can get these at our other partners over at caras speed.com links will be in the description for that let's go ahead and Chuck these up on the car [Applause] I [Music] wheels are on but really quick we were just thinking about this sticker placement apparently from Factory they did not have any VTEC stickers on here but this thing is a single overhead cam VTEC so I did end up buying these I thought it was Factory option but this one actually had a dual over head cam VTEC sticker on it if you remember in the First videos but I think that looks pretty cool what do you guys think should I put these on here on both sides I have two stickers single overhead cam VTEC uh for the both sides on the back and like I said he did have it on there but he had a dual overhead cam so this thing I think was swapped at one point with that uh with a dual overhead cam but should I put these stickers on there or should I take them off let me me know Down Below in the comments is it tacky or is it kind of cool I kind of like it I'm leaning towards putting it on but let me know what you guys think so hopefully you can hear me on the mic I'm going to be taking this thing out uh backing it up showing you what it looks like with the wheels and coils I'm excited it looks super good let's roll it [Music] out I think we're all right test this seems [Music] [Music] fine I wish we did have a little bit better lighting but holy crap look at that that is awesome guys so as you guys can see this car came out pretty sick
