Thank you, but no I did not weld any holes just wire wheeled everything and painted. I try to get everything done as fast as the funds permit so I can start making ideas for what to tackle next.

Thanks man. Where in VA are you located?

I just read through this whole thread, was kinda disappointed to see the posts ran out. Such a nice job on your project, keep up the great work!

Turpid Porpoise

Thanks.

Thank you.

Yea I am in the process of moving so money and time are both tight. I just finished making a custom rear harness for the car since I had to order a EX coupe harness to replace mine and the taillight wiring and what not doesnt fit right. Pics will be up soon. I am also attempting to make an HVAC and radio block off plate out of either acrylic or fiberglass.

Turpid Porpoise

Nothing new here just took better pictures and thought I would post them.



Thinking about mounting the fusebox here but I may mount it underneath my airbag delete tray instead.


Integra dash mounted in car. I will be switching the VEI gauge out for an AEM oil pressure gauge as soon as I get around to it.


And the port work I did to my head.

That is the cleanest fork and A arm I've ever seen under a Civic. Did you buy new OEM, aftermarket, or just clean the hell out of the originals?

Just went through whole thread, awesome build..what offset are the 16X7 rota c10's? keep up the good work!

Turpid Porpoise

Thanks man.

They are all the originals suspension arms, I cleaned and degreased them before they were media blasted and powdercoated.

Thanks buddy, +45.

And since I posted things I got motivated to make some progress and mounted my hardrace toe kit....

And started sanding the car for bondo and primer...


Previous owner had a wrap around wing on here that he then ripped off an left gobs of bondo and two big rusty holes on each side...



Thats all for today, so far I have 90% of the passenger side and the roof ready for primer except for the holes and what not.

Truly amazing, I check this thread everyday! Cannot wait to see the end.

Turpid Porpoise

Got this back today






I shaved it myself and took it to American Stripping, the same people who did my suspension arms, and they did a great job with the powder coating. I originally wanted the Mugen ignition wire cover but now I don't want to cover up that much of the valve cover. Any suggestions?

StreetsideStig

I literally bit my lower lip when I saw that valve cover. Hotness.

Turpid Porpoise

Thanks buddy, thats what I was going for. I didn't really check my work with a real wet coat of primer after putting bondo into what I shaved off so I was worried a ridge might show through but it is smooth and looks OEM minus the HONDA stamped on it.

Valve cover looks great! I didnt know you could use bondo under powder coating. I wouldnt hide anything on that baby. Mattress needs a skirt. Otherwise, everything looks good.

delsolo95

wow! im going the same route with my sol. getting hardrace front and rear camber, toe adjuster, rta bushings, progress 350/350 setup and saving for a k24.

Mattsam4235

just went thru the whole build.. wow i wish everyone had a mind like you building hondas, maybe then they wouldnt be looked down on as much.. once i start my eg coupe build ill deff be looking back to here for reff. GOODLUCK

Turpid Porpoise

Ha yea it's a makeshift living space until I can get a new spot.

Sounds like you have the right idea. The RTA bushings are a pain in the ***.

Thanks a lot man. Im glad you feel like you can use my build to help you with yours.

Prelude_N_Accord

0SimpleTire

Nice Work! can't wait to see how it comes out.

Turpid Porpoise

Thanks man. Got any tire recommendations for the 16x7 wheels im running?

orangeskater

props man looks great! i love the powder coating on all the parts. makes it look legit. subscribed.

Turpid Porpoise

Thanks man.

Small update for now.

Stoptech blanks I got. I have laid down primer on the interior of the car so I will update that as soon as I finish the base and clear coats.

StreetsideStig

Nice! Stoptech's good stuff.
