Default ** Mashimaro's EH hatch build **

I thought i'd finally put together some photos of my car and parts i've put into it.

Long story short, I began with a '93 coupe and then went to an Si hatch. The rust became bad in the quarters so i picked up a CX hatch which is what you see now.





My old Si hatch on TE37's:


Mugen S1's installed:




Mugen MF10's in 15x6.5":


Toyo R888:


Mugen Gymkhana header install:




Toda Spec B cams, ti retainers, valvesprings, cam gears and t-belt:


ATS Clutch LSD:


CTR trans with 4.7FD:


Custom CNC spacers to raise my car (yes, raise it):


Spoon N1 Suspension:


Function 7's (for bling):


Spoon CF spoiler:


Perfect fit:


Vision CF Mirrors:


Defi DIN gauges:





Anyways, i hope you guys like my build as much as i do!

K20-R motor research is in progress

Nooooo save the B series!

I suppose if your going to go K then a K20R is an amazing replacement. I am a HUGE fan of this car I hope you keep up this thread when you go through with the swap. I would love to sell my mint EM1 and put something like this together but I just don't have the place to do so. Awesome car man, keep it up!

lol, i've had my B18C-R motor for about 6 years now. I was going to rebuild it but decided to go K20-R instead i do agree that a B-series looks 'right' in the bay though!

thanks for the kind words!

The person buying my ITR motor will actually be keeping the Toda head package as well. I feel it's too much trouble to part it out and put stock back in so i'm selling it with the longblock.

When i first installed the Spoon N1's, the rear was tucking tire even at maximum height. I was also preloading the spring too much trying to raise it up and the ride was too harsh in the rear. I consulted my local shop and they had some customer spacers made for me to solve my height issue. I was able to unload the rear spring preload and keep a height that I was happy with.

This has been one of my favorite hatches of all time (or at least the old one). Glad to see you made a build thread.

This is a beautiful car! Great looking, well modified. I like the B too but a K will go well in there. Keep sharing, I love it!

lol, yes i drive around town with the R888's. I got them for a good price so i don't mind killing them on the streets with all the heat cycles. noisy tires though and they flick up a lot of rocks

You added a power steering rack? I've never seen that on a CX chasis. Only on DX automatics and Si's.
