Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
Hey guys thanks for the comments.
Ghost accord the tree is fake that was in my basement as i painted the parts in the garage and then moved to basement to let cure in the heat verses the -50 weather i had that day lol.
Alarm is wired up and hidden will never be scene. I have a shock sensor,back-up battery,glass smash and tilt sensor on the car. Why not i did all this work whats $160 bucks i spent on a alarm with a pager. I tested the car out and the alarm worked pretty good. I walked over 2000 feet and the alarm paged me while the car was in a garage with the door closed. Im very impressed with this alarm and autostarter combo i got.
Im jugling 3 builds right now the accord wagon is running now and i got the fenders off and the A frame braces are almost ready to be welded.
Hopefully this weekend the a frame braces will be all done and put on and the fenders and side skirts will be on and the accord will be done and running.

Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
well guys a quick update. The A frame braces are done and im just going to paint them this weekend and bolt them up.
New delema, I wanted to put a OEM SI lip on the front but the one i have is not in good shape to get painted, so i was gonna order a new one from honda but it is Back Ordered and TBA. So i wanted to get all my parts painted in one shot buts its starting look like im going to have to rock the stock lip non painted and the painted ek side skirts for now i guess.
Grrr

Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
you sir are a master of your craft!! 2 things tho.. 1. what do the a braces do? i can imagine chassis stiffening but have never seen that before. 2. engine bay left untouched?? awesome work none the less

Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
Hey thanks for the kind words.
The front braces reienforce the front A frame area. They are on google. a frame braces or fender braces.
The engine bay is pretty clean paint wise im gonna touch it up and wax it up. As for the motor im gonna build up this witer. I want a 260whp sc lsvtec motor.

Good Build! Sucks about the rust. We don't really have to worry about rust down here in Virginia. I know you guys in PA and up all the way to Canada have to deal with that mess.

Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
Well so far i scored a set of high comp SRP pistons and some eagle rods and arp head studs. I was going to use a set of JDM gsr pistons and stock rods but got a good deal on these so i thought why not some piece of mind.
Im home for holidays in a week and im going to start fabing up the Down Pipe for the 4into 1 header for a 3" dp and 3" exahust and will be also starting the fab work on my intake manfiold for the blower.
We will see how the funds fair out. Worst comes to worst i will slap the blower on the B16 and ill drive that setup till i get some more coin to build up the LSVTEC.

Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
well dec.29 not much has happened on the car just collecting parts via trades and small $$ deals.
I got some arp main studs for the B18C block and some srp pistons for b18b for a 10.5 compression. mtx sub assembly.
Tomorrow im gonna put my b18c on the engine stand and see what it needs to be fixed, guy who ran the block before said the thrust bearing journal was messed up.
I will mount the blower on the motor and look at fabing up a new blower tensioner assembly with a extra idler pulley for better pulley to belt contact and also on the crank to alternator belt contact. I want to run 10-11psi with no slippage.

Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
you inspired me to start fixing my honda rot (on a milano 1994 ex) and this is THE best EG body work i have seen (i may only have X# of posts but i've been in the game for 5 years)
can you get started on the side skirts please
i picked up some 96-00 skirts for the EG and im stumped on what to do about the little flair at the front, i dont want there to be a gap so i want to see what you do with it.
thank you for your hard work! i cant wait till mine pays off like yours has

Re: EG Project 95 Civic SI Rust Bucket :)
I was going to cut the fenders and pull the bottoms out a bit but desided against it due to the time. What i did was say you are looking at the drivers fender.
The lower bolt munts the one on the right i placed 2 M6 washers and on the left i believed it was 6 washers between the fender and the fram and the fender pulls out and there is about 1/8" gap vs 3/4" like everyone else does. I may attempt to put the side skirts on this week and will take some pics for you.FTR94EX post up a build thread and i can help you out. Im not a professional body man but if done lots of body work.
