Aba Ji just brought a hardtop manual , the car is not up to my standards I will be sharing everything I do or have already done in Karachi to make my car as OEM+ as I can being on a budget as I am 19 and just earn enough to spend a small part of it on my passion.
This is my beauty
Will be getting Cruise installed in the next week or two @zunny made history by doing the first one
I also went ahead and bought kabli set of door handles from the hybrid version which are half chrome , got them for a steal at 1200/piece color matched

If you have limited budget, go for cosmetics/jdm parts later and perform the fluid flushes first. Power steering fluid and brake fluid are two most neglected maintainance items and should be replaced periodically. Coolant (if there) would be 10+ years old and should also be replaced. Also check windshield trim rubber as thats prone to rot in this generation and then causes rust in windshield channel.
Brother aba Ji handles the maintenance and yes will be getting all the fluids flushed . The vtec seal was leaking that along with the valve cover gasket was replaced . Radiator was cleaned . I just ordered the engine flush as soon as it arrives the car goes for maintenance Will be using Honda PSF, MTF and break fluidAlso getting the belt changedCoolant will be added as well it was running on water I am still checking for leaks after the radiator was cleanedPlus all the filters
I have made some good progress with the car
Interior trims have been wrapped with 7D carbon fibreCruise control installedRims have been buffedWill be sharing pics soon
On the hunt for hybrid taillights and alcantara/suede steering wheel cover
Logged in after 2 years , have been daily driving her since .Getting around 15km/l with 30km of motorway and 30km of city driving . Rear shocks are busted . The car needs plugs and filters . The adjuster bearing may have started to go out as I can hear a little squeaking . May have to check one of the engine mounts and get the bumpers a fresh coat of paint . She survived the monsoon got me home safely even with a high water level . Every day I start her up and she is ready for the journey ahead . I am grateful to Allah for such a car . I am saving up money for a exterior type R conversion and a top notch paint job . Hope to add the digital climate control and remote trunk unlock options from a jdm model
