Since Nathan, like most of us, isn't living the lavish lifestyle that some do, he decided to handle the suspension modifications instead of dropping his Civic off at another shop. To get things started, he first removed the pinch moldings and cut the strut towers to allow for ball joint clearance. After ditching the factory struts, Nathan installed BlowJax air cylinders at all four-corners, utilizing BlowJax 3/8" electric fast valves so that his car actuates quickly, whether he wants to go up or down.  A ¾ horsepower compressor feeds into a three-gallon tank, which is hidden in behind a false floor under the speaker box. Nathan built a custom diamond plate box inside which houses the gauges and switches for instant, on the fly, adjustability. The next place Nathan turned his focus was to the interior of the Civic, again deciding to handle most of the work himself, but calling on Al Upholstery of Ft. Pierce, Florida for their help. The factory front seats were first stitched in tangelo and white vinyl and the rear suits followed suit.

  The door panels were then dyed and wrapped in matching tangelo and white, as well as the headliner and every other panel that could be removed. Nathan also removed the dash, dyed and painted it to match the rest of his interior and reinstalled it, topping things off with a B.A.D. Hellfire billet steering wheel.
