I have been working on this car for a couple years now, off and on. It is pretty much being rebuilt from the ground up, with an entirely new interior designed by myself and father. The exterior is going to have a body kit with a mugen style front bumper, budd y clu b side skirts and black widow rear bumper. The side skirts are going to be molded into the car to make it look a lot better as if they were meant to be their. The rims are rota grids, 16 x 7 wrapped in bfgoodrich g-sport tires 205/40/16. The engine is a jdm h22a that will be tuned using Hondata and for now will have the usual simple bolt ons, including intake, header and exhaust. Feel free to post comments good or bad or questions, as noone has really seen this car in a rather long time and some input would be great!!!
The day we got the car....as you can tell bad shape.
This side was even worse...ended up replacing the door.
TERRIBLE engine bay with old d16, apparently only thing wrong was a bad flywheel...doubt it
No more side molding nor nasty engine bay.
Custom making the dash and pretty much everything else in the interior, a lot of work but it will be worth it in the long run.
Here's a shot of the door panel in progress...
The h22 mounted and fit perfect using Explicit Speed Performance's motor mount kit and front cross member...ESP FTW!
Here's the rota's put on real fast for fitment and to see what they looked like...GREAT!
Another view of the h22...notice the new fuel setup, decided to run below the mani to make it look cleaner, also redid all the wiring and hide what I could without extending them. I also used rywire.com for the engine harness wiring to my ecu, well worth it since I know i don't have any wires mismatched!
Shows the headers, hydro to cable conversion for the clutch and the new an improved front cross member.
MASSIVE radiator by ff dynamics...apparently a direct bolt in...was definetly not. Ended up making custom mounts for it and also cut the bottom tubing and replaced it with 1" steel cube pipe for even more clearence...when I filled it up this thing took over 4 qts antifreeze! So no cooling problems here!
Misc. parts room, showing my suspension, seats, 3-pt front strut bar, 4-pt rear strut bar and 2-pt lower rear strut bar. Also have new headlights, taillights, corner lights, carbon fiber hood, 4 point harness, harness bar, body kit, power window kit, quick release for steering wheel, carbon fiber shift knob. Basically to many parts to list...and also have way to many pics just takes time to put them on here...so let me know what you think of everything thus far!
