My EG Hatch project
Traded my 94 Acura Integra for this 94 EG hatch. Plan on making it my track/saturday night fun car. Currently has d16z6 in it. I built an all motor lsv I will swap into the car. I put my s2000 seats in the car.

Re: My EG Hatch project
Here is my lsv I will be swapping into the car. B16a2 head attached to my b18b block with arp head studs, pr3 pistons on ls rods with acl bearings all around. I'm still peiceing the build together. At the end of this I want to be able to safely spray this motor. I have comp 2 cams, skunk2 valves and springs ready to go into the head.

Re: My EG Hatch project
Thanks. I had the block and head sent out, to get hot tanked, and freshin up. My plans to the car is to work on the brakes and suspension first. Tomorrow my friend and I are going to the junkyard to look for rear disc brakes so I can convert them. After that its going to be the motor then all cosmetics to make the car look clean. Thinking apple red.

Re: My EG Hatch project
Today was a successful day at the junkyard, picked my my rear disc brakes for $100. Thats a steal down here in Florida. People sell these for 200-250. Couldnt find a proportioning valve. I will have to order one from Honda. I am going to rebuild these, bushings, rotors, calipers, and put new pads on these.

Picked up a new recovery tank too. My old one was cracked. Heres a pic after I cleaned it up.
Here is the tank installed.
Picked up a new switch, the car doesnt have cruise control but what I have now is only for the light control. And theres a gap. I rather it look clean.
Before.
How it looms now with the new switch, looks a lot better without the hole.

I just ordered replacement parts. I got new trail arm bushings, hydraulic hoses for both sides and new rotors online. I ordered new calipers at advance auto parts. Its cheaper thru them when I can eliminate that core charge.

I got these seats for $300; I had to change out the rails and put Integra rails on them. They were in my Integra before I traded it for this.

Re: My EG Hatch project
You can see how bad the bushing is...
Here it is after i got it out and cleaned it.
This was a b@#$+ to remove. This is what i used to remove it... still gotta do the other side.

Re: My EG Hatch project
Yea I put a lot of work into it, but I had a EJ1 before and the only reason I went into a teggy was because I fucked up my civic. Thanks bro, maybe a few years down the road I'll get another one.

Re: My EG Hatch project
Isnt pretty but I got it in...
Screws were stripped. Had to drill them out.
Screws gone.
When I was at the junkyard I cut the hoses. I didnt trust them so I am just going to them.
New hose.
Removed the other bushing. I've been having trouble and was getting frustrated so I'm taking a break.

Re: My EG Hatch project
then there is the method I use personally which is HF 12 shop press. you can get one of these bad boys for like $100. As many times as I've used it, that $100 was easily recovered.
nice build so far tho.

Re: My EG Hatch project
Finally got it in!!! Had to sand both the metal and the busing ring. Used 40 grid and some lube and got it in nicely.
New brake line.
Screws out. Calling it a day. Need to pick up brake pads anyways and a rear right caliper.

Re: My EG Hatch project
Finished last one.
Installing these on Friday. I'm excited to get this done. After installing this all I need to do is to swap out the proportioning valve with an si one.
