EG Shell Project...

[WhiteBB2]

Just bought and unloaded my 1994 EG Shell tonight and will be starting on it very soon. Here are some pictures to start out this thread and I will continue to post pictures in here. If anyone is in the Cincinnati Ohio area and would be willing and/or would want to help out me out with some of this project, I am sure I could work something out... More coming................. -AG

looks like a good car to start with...quarter panels look great. what kinda plans you got? i am starting a project with my hatch too. good luck.

Good shape

Good luck with it

[Townson]

the body's in good shape. good luck with it man.

First I want to find a new pass door and a new hood. I might just throw on a black hood or a CF hood depending on what kind of deals I find. I need to get rid of the Faux CF gas tank door and swap it with a OEM white one.

Motor plans will prolly be a LS/Turbo. Looking for a motor as we speak. (Funds don't allow for a K20 like I really want.)

The car appears to be lowered (don't know the suspension setup at the moment) but will eventually throw some SI wheels on there or some Polished Slipstreams.

Interior has GSR front cloth seats but no rear seats.

That is about all right now.

If anyone is around my Cincinnati Area and would like to help me a little with this project, I would greatly appreciate it!

i vote just paint the parts you have :-) i know no body likes to hear it but maaco does good paint jobs granted the prep work is 100% done. and the more you take off (lights, and other stuff you dont want painted) the better the final product will be.

i just got my eg resprayed red -- $400 cash out the door. looks real nice except for all the new dents from winter. ughh i hate iLL some times.

i am here in lexington.... if its parts you may need let me know i can find them normally pretty cheap..... i might take you up on that offer to help work on it.... your only about an hour away..... Beer on tap??? ha

yeah i am actually building the LS turbo as we speak.. should be done in a few weeks..

its in better shape than the one i bought .... then sold 4 days later it was horrible broken suspension parts rear seat mounts grinded off cut and oversprayed wireing harness no traction bars wich i failed to notice it was the worst mistake of my life i only paid 700 but damn my wife never let me hear the end of it. god luck with this build though you got a nice platform

[WhiteBB2]

I made the mistake of buying a EG hatch that the "title was lost" and I could never get one for it. I paid 400 for that one and sold it for 400. Just to get it off my hands. It was used for parts by the buyer but no the less...That was a BIG mistake, So this one was title in hand and signed over/notarized same day!

Currently looking for a complete LS swap...

nice shell, cant wait to see where ur gonna go with this
im currently in the process of building my EG Coupe, just waitin on that cash so i can swap in some SI rims and seats and get some other parts that need to be replaced.

[WhiteBB2]

Yeah, This shell came with GSR seats which I was happy about. Basically dude just didnt have the money to start this shell project and instead of him letting it sit and go to waste...He sold it to me.

[WhiteBB2]

I have this spare front bumper that I might try to use instead of the white one that has a broken tab.

This one is brand new.

Finally got my Nikon and Memory card working...so here are some HD pictures.















Can anyone "KINDA" identify what these springs MIGHT be? I was thinking that the yellow springs might be NEUSPEED and the green appear to be TEIN. I could be completely wrong.

[themikewoo]

Keep us posted!

[green99civic]

keep it up man

[thunderalley71]

the tein green is a little flatter and not really sparkely like those are

[WhiteBB2]

Thanks, They might be cheap eBay ones...I have no idea.

[WhiteBB2]

I need list:

LS Dropout or B16 Dropout
GSR/B16 tranny

[gutted-dx]

Bump for a solid shell, I know how Cincys rust can get'cha.

[killbillet]

looks good, that camera is really good, whats the model of it??

[WhiteBB2]

yeah, Cincinnati is hell on cars.

[slo_hatch]

those springs most def look like those $40 coilovers off ebay...they are for sure not either of those. the yellow ones are most likely cheap coilovers and the green ones are hard to tell...they are not tein tho. teins are a bright green almost like lime...those look sparkly and dark green.

[patotas]

looks good. good luck..

They are not sparkly at all...nor are they dark green. Either way if they are cheap ones or "good" ones...I will see how they ride and change after I get the motor in. (or while im installing motor.)
