Nice. It looks like money is being spent.. Getting the money together is the hardest part of the build sometimes.

Ya I have always waited to get the best deals... lots of used parts but some of them I can't cheap out on and have to buy new... still at the moment I only have about 3k-3.5k in the whole build ... I bought the first hatch for $500 parted it out , made money and kept what I needed...the next hatch I stole for $160!!!!! Its been a lot of fun ... Because I have nice daily I'm in no rush

the seat is made by pro car it's actually pretty comfortable and not too expensive.. This motor is studded and internally stock ..it does have a skunk intaked manifold ,TB, light flywheel etc I'm looking to get around 300 Whp .. I do have another motor like I was saying hopefully next year I can finish already have forged pistons and rods but I need to send the block off to CSS..

Is it FIA apporved? looks good.

300hp on stock ls sound reasonable, especially with a good tune. I will diffently be subscribed to this build.

Well she is alive , I had a rough time with the already hacked harness that came with the car and had replaced most of it..but when I tried to put power through the car I had nothing on the main relay and starter signal..turns out ..ended up being the safety switch and the engine harness driver side that runs into the fuse panel..replaced them and she fired right up.. will be taking it for alignment and to have my 3in exhaust finished.. will add pics after!!

Very very nice, build is going great so far. I have a 95 frost white civic cx hb, my fav honda and IMHO the best chassis honda ever made. I've had if for 11 years so far, bought it bone stock and will keep it till the day i die. Looking forward to your updates

Its been crazy the past few months and I have not been able to get on here and update.. I got the car running and have been driving around of course there were a few bugs I had to work out.. the only major one so far is somehow I'm getting oil past the valves or the rings at WOT .. so I have not put the turbo on yet.. but I plan on doing a leak down and compression test this weekend so I can fix the culprit and finally turbo this thing.. I took a couple pics of it out and about and also I've had to get my girl ready for her 2nd fight which was about a two month camp but she won and hopefully after a few more will get her in Invicta
