My first build ever: 92 eg hatch
This will NOT be one of those baller build threads such as B16b_coupe, vietjdmboi, Chef Andre, BaconLettuceTomato or anyone else like that for that matter. Well being 17 with no job this will be a SUPER LONG term project. This is the first car I have ever owned. I purchased my EG back in APRIL 09' completely bone stock. It was my beater for a few months till I got my four door EK. Reason why I got another car was due to the motor will be needing a rebuild soon and having a little ADHD I needed a project. My goal for this build is to restore the whole car ground up, with some upgrades as well. The hatch is going to stay the same color because I like my things OEM and I like the color. I will try to update this thread as much as possible, so bear with me.
when I first got it...
then put on some drop springs
couple pics before I started taking it apart
I have most of the interior stripped already, waiting for my friend to come by and help me pull the motor..here is a couple pics of how it sits currently
