It's going to change soon but it used to be a h22 motor with an h23 crank, light head work, 88mm 12.5:1 comp pistons and some blox b's in the head. not much else to list as power adders so I'll keep it simple.

I also have a b16 peg legg trans and a 2005lbs chassis when I'm in it...

lemme know if you wanna know more.

 

Another new update. I didnt have my camera today so I took some cell phone pics. Hope they are coo.

Todays update: I finally got my front suspension back on the car. Here are some pics of the progress...

The crossmember with everything cleaned and ready to go on the car.



Installed!



I am thinking about doing a rear wheel drive EG setup now. jk





Ok, I was bored and threw the Skinnies on the front, haha. They look funny on the front. haha

anyway, I need to order some stuff this week so I can get the rear suspension back on... Look for more updates by Friday.

 

Got another goody, I was waiting over a month for this guy to show up but it was on a boat. haha. I opened the packaging and it still smelled like brand new resin. cuhrazy!!





It sux but the next parts update is going to be in a couple weeks. Hopefully I get some more stuff done to the car by then... cross your fingers and wish me luck folks...

 

I'm going to get some work done on the EG this weekend. New trailing arm bushings and other stuff on the way. Hopefully everything goes to plan. Look for pics on Saturday or Sunday...

 

TRUNK LOOKS SICK......GOOD BUILD!

 

good ****!

 

I got my trailing arms back from the shop with a fresh coat of Kandy paint and needed to install them. I also purchased some Energy Suspension Trailing arm bushings. I borrowed the Honda/Mac Tool for trailing arm bushings which made this job pretty easy.

I installed the trailing arm bushings at DNR Performance with the help of my buddy Dave (DNR).



and here are some pics of the install...





Tadaaa!! Done on the driver side...



I will be finishing the passenger side sometime this week. I need some hardware before I can continue, the damn torques bolts in the rear of the hub were stripped when I removed them so I gotta get new ones for the passenger side. Will have more pics later this week with the car on the ground, hopefully. hahah

 

i heard bad things about the es bushings...

i would of went with hardrace...but on the positive side

them trailing arms look good as hell!

 

I have heard bad things about them too, but honestly I can't complain cause I dont street this car and if they are that bad, I will just pull em and do some spherical bearing bushings...

They are much easier to install too, fyi...

 

I have ran the es bushing for about 9 yrs now and I havnt had a lick of problems with them. What kind of problem do they have?

 

THIS GUY BOUGHT A DODGE. THIS BUILD THREAD IS OVER lolz

 

Damn it took me 3 hrs and a half to go through the whole thread ..... But its was worth it .. Keep up the good work and Updates

 

Great job on the updates and im jockin the carbon fiber goodies

 

haha ya jerk!

btw, thanks folks. I'm trying to smash on getting the car done while i'm out of school but waiting on parts sux. Hopefully I can get her together soon!

 

damn cant wait, i start school tommorow morning

 

sweet build!

 

I hear they squeak and make noises during driving but thats about it. I don't think they are worth installing after the huge headache though, it would be easier to install some spherical bearings, MUCH MUCH EASIER!

School for me starts Sept 21 so I got a bit of time. Sux 4 u tho, hahahah...

 

lol indeed sux had like 4 hours of sleep just got out got another class at 6

 

nice build

 

ack, yea I know what thats like. For summer I had class starting at 7:30 am and my day ended at 5pm, there was a 40 minute break in between all this. I felt like I was going to work but not getting paid any $$. ugh. oh well, it will work out in the end right? haha

Thank you very much! I will be posting a few more pics later tonight. I'm bout to throw some salmon in the oven, then I will finish my suspension for the rear and drop the car on the ground. woohoo!!!

 

sick man, cross member and rear arms came out freshy, looking forward to more!

 

def worth it being an auto tech for honda lol but atleast the program gives me a degree in science just incase i dont like working there i can go back to school and use the degree, anything new with the hatch?

 

I finally got the new Metric bolts for the rear knuckle. I got rid of the old torques bolts and put in some 17mm bolts to hold the knuckle to the trailing arm. Here's pics!

Old torques bolts that had stripped heads...



The New Stuff!!



I had to take the rear strut out to put the new bolts in but I got everything buttoned up and this is what it looks like after everything was tight...



and the brand new donut wheel. hahah!!



I also got to work on the passenger side. It was easier and harder at the same time, if that makes any sense... I had no kind of room to work on the suspension because the passenger side of the car is close to the cabinets in my garage but I had to manage...



And this is where it is for now... I will finish putting on the e-brake cable and the caliper tomorrow night...



If I get to finish everything tomorrow she goes back on the ground....

 

ama-zing...

 

^^ LOL you rat bastard! ahha

Goli Maaarrrrrr!
