Re: AWD-T EG Hatch build
I'm going to build a fuel cell and mount it where the spare tire would go. Bosch 044 pump -8 feed and -6 return stainless braided line. And yes I would love to make it rwd lol sourcing these wagovan parts is getting harder and harder

Re: AWD-T EG Hatch build
I wanna do this to my eg as well......i am trying to get rid of the rsx type s tranny i have, i also got integra type r jdm 5 lug atm .....so i am wondering what should i do about the rear setup of the car and should i either go back to 4 lug setup or just keep the 5 lug and get a 5 lug rear setup for my awd project .....this guy is selling a whole wagon setup for $900 worth anything? and how much would u charge a person to do the trailing arm setup??? so all i would have to do is bolt them up to the car??

Re: AWD-T EG Hatch build
The ratios are so close that I believe the viscous coupler will take up the difference, might premature wear we will see. Epic tunings car had slightly larger tires up front welded vc and diff and they were breaking t cases... I don't plan on welding mine lol.

Re: AWD-T EG Hatch build
Starting to put all back together
Picked up a set of whistler kr1 wrapped with the 205 50 toyo r888 which I recently sold to a friend but will be picking up the same wheel and tire package
Built my own fuel cell and integrated the factory fuel gauge sender into it

Every once in a long while, a build comes along that is so tastefully done that a state of epic surrounds it. This is that car.
I am so impressed. I have been a fabricator for so long and fully appreciate every detail here. This is turning out slick as *****!
Congratulations on your craft.

That is by far the best complement anyone has ever given me about this build or the quality of work I do. Thank you, My whole intention with this build was to create something out of the ordinary and to test myself

Re: AWD-T EG Hatch build
this is all quite overwhelming. it's a great powerplant, in a fantastic chassis, with a superb powertrain layout, done as close to Honda original as possible, and executed with style, class, and attention to detail.
