Re: My Da9 build
Thanks man. I bought the shell back in July. I haven't been able to work on it much with me being away at school. I'll be doing a rhd conversion and will sling some fresh paint on her. Unfortunately I sold the black da9 to help pay for college but I bought a 2000 em1 off a buddy of mine. He put it into a pole and it needed a rad support so I got an si for like $1000.
it's almost there I just need the grille and a few other misc. parts

Re: My Da9 build
There ya go man. One step at a time. I've been having the itch to wrench extremely bad lately. I had to straighten the frame on it and buy a whole new front end but I'm still only in it maybe 3k. It barely has 100k on it.

Re: My Da9 build
Thanks guys. Hate to say it, but there will be nothing going on in this thread for awhile. Feel free to chime in with ideas for the white da, I certainly have a while to think about it.

Re: My Da9 build
Picked up a pos 4 door da for 800 bucks on Craigslist... Drove it for a couple days then pulled out the jdm b20b. It also has a old school b16 cable trans. The same one I used on my black da. Love it! Sold the ground control coilovers, wheels and scrapped the shell. When all was said and done this whole swap costed me about 400 bucks. ( with the shift linkage and innovative mounts)

Re: My Da9 build
after 3 years she's finally coming together. Currently waiting on my cj tuck harness to fire it. Also bought a 90 RS as a parts car so I'll have manual window regulators, thus eliminating the need for jdm doors since the door panels are both the same on manual doors. I also used the chassis harness out of it and wire tucked it.
