Here is my 1992 Honda Civic CX Hatchback. This car began its life as the base of the base-model Civics, but has been transformed into anything but that. You are now looking at a 1993 Acura Integra Ls wrapped in a 1992 Civic Hatch body! I bought a '93 Integra, stripped it down, and swapped over the B18a engine, the automatic transmission, the ECU, the gauge cluster, and every single wire all the way from the headlights to the taillights... creating a true conversion! Now my CX Hatchback has power steering, power windows, power locks, and power mirrors. To top it off, we gave the B18a more power with a Turbonetics T3/T4 Turbo. Please check out the mods below for detailed information.
