Default My Project

This is my project hope you guys enjoy...

this is the car before i bought it, i bought it off of one of my buddies i met when i was attending school at UTI,





it has a b16a gen 1 in it 4-1 custom header, with dual exhaust (not to crazy about it).

the hatch struts where f* ed, man that hatch is one heavey b*tch..!!! but me and a buddy found struts off a saab from the junky and i had to drill holes into them and find new bolts becuase the honda strut where totally different but it works beautiful now!!
dont have any pictures off me doing that

i had a home made cowl hood on it from the kid i bought it off he kept his CF hood but the stock hood was f ed up so he has another rex he bought that had the cowl hood

but i got rid of that and i got a hood off of a 4 door but i didnt knwo that they didnt fit until i put it on

well here are some pictures... my camera sucks ***** so im sorry for the bad pictures barewith me please thank you

EDIT: THISS HOOD IS NO LONGER ON THE CAR!!!!! SO STOP COMMENTING ME LIKE I STILL HAVE IT!!!!

this is the interior i have the tac in there because i need a new gauge cluster the tac, fuel and temp dont work only the mph work but as soon as i get the new cluster the tac is going!!


prelude seats inside but im thinking about getting teg seats or the stock crx seats in there i dont know what im going to do but thats not on the top of my list



the other day i desided to paint it i was tired of having it different colors and primed

so i got some spray paint and pushed the car into my garage haha... but it came out pritty good for spray paint...
here are some pictures and again sorry for the bad pictures( cheap *** camera)


my little torpedo heater haha i love it




took me about i dont knwo 2 hours to tape it up with a decent lunch break lol

this is it painted black, still in the garage







thats it for now im still in the prosses but jsut enjoying driving it right now, i plan on putting a turbo in, but im also thinking about doing LS/Vtec in it but thats all right now i want to put it back to stock on the outside and inside i love the clean look so its a working progress... but i hope you enjoy and ill trying to have more pictures up with the car outside and about... thanks

A little ricey, but whatever floats your boat. Can you actually see out your windshield with that monstrosity of a cowl hood? Interior is clean, I like the prelude seats. I actually like the all black look, Knight Rider FTW! Good luck .

holy crap, i think onlookers will see that cowl hood before they even see the car. Its too big/much!

when you say spray pain, do you mean a rattle can of paint or air spray?

and to emphasize..omg big hood! its blinding aahh i cant see the oncoming traf..*CRASH*....

Here are some new pictures i took today







i think it looks good for spray paint... i went a little to far wet sanding it so i have to put on another 2 coats and clear it... i think it will look good when im done but for now not to much is getting done i have to move into my basement so thats going to take a while

oo and im not a big fan of the "ricey look" i love the clean stock look > my goal!

turbo soon!

oo and when i say spray paint i mean the """exact match"""" crap from pepboys, let me tell you it doesnt look that bad for being spray painted the 2 coats i put on took about 7 cans of black and about 2 1/2 hours or so

looks like alot of bondo...you should remove all the bondo 1st,then work on the body lines and gaps,,and the car would look good...That bodykit is nice, xenon? fenders and front corner lights dont really flow with the car..wheels are nice..overall its a nice car but the bondo and poor fitment of body panels is killing it
