why was the shifter section tig'd?

 

This hatch use to be have a k so we had to weld in the new floor section because of the old shift box and we also have to do the tranny bracket this week

 

Going together

 

Nice

 

thanks!! ya man 15 years old going to NOPI 1999 in Atlanta before I could drive with you!! damn I feel old

 

More parts coming in

 

Nice. It looks like money is being spent.. Getting the money together is the hardest part of the build sometimes.

 

Ya I have always waited to get the best deals... lots of used parts but some of them I can't cheap out on and have to buy new... still at the moment I only have about 3k-3.5k in the whole build ... I bought the first hatch for $500 parted it out , made money and kept what I needed...the next hatch I stole for $160!!!!! Its been a lot of fun ... Because I have nice daily I'm in no rush

 

Can't wait to see where this ends up after the motors in and body works done!

 

More parts showing up lol an fittings, steel clutch line and the K tuned radiator relocation kit!

 

Creeping

 

I've been traveling a lot but now I have some weekends off and will be able to finish putting the motor in , was up late finishing the wiring . Clutch will be here this week and picking up my battery and bracket to relocate it to the front support next week

 

Motor : check

 

Just waiting for my fuel pump to show up and my rad from go autoworks

 

car look good.

Is that an nrg seat? Also, is that ls internally stock? what numbers are you looking to reach?

 

the seat is made by pro car it's actually pretty comfortable and not too expensive.. This motor is studded and internally stock ..it does have a skunk intaked manifold ,TB, light flywheel etc I'm looking to get around 300 Whp .. I do have another motor like I was saying hopefully next year I can finish already have forged pistons and rods but I need to send the block off to CSS..

 

Is it FIA apporved? looks good.

300hp on stock ls sound reasonable, especially with a good tune. I will diffently be subscribed to this build.

 

Not FIA approved but I think it could be.. they are really nice ... I had the rails beefed up so I hope I'm ok lol , Ya I think this car will be a lot of fun .. The car is very light... no ps, ac, heat, and Dash is gutted as well .. Thanks for checking out my build I will keep it updated

 

Well she is alive , I had a rough time with the already hacked harness that came with the car and had replaced most of it..but when I tried to put power through the car I had nothing on the main relay and starter signal..turns out ..ended up being the safety switch and the engine harness driver side that runs into the fuse panel..replaced them and she fired right up.. will be taking it for alignment and to have my 3in exhaust finished.. will add pics after!!

 

can't wait for more picture updates!

 

Very very nice, build is going great so far. I have a 95 frost white civic cx hb, my fav honda and IMHO the best chassis honda ever made. I've had if for 11 years so far, bought it bone stock and will keep it till the day i die. Looking forward to your updates

 

Its been crazy the past few months and I have not been able to get on here and update.. I got the car running and have been driving around of course there were a few bugs I had to work out.. the only major one so far is somehow I'm getting oil past the valves or the rings at WOT .. so I have not put the turbo on yet.. but I plan on doing a leak down and compression test this weekend so I can fix the culprit and finally turbo this thing.. I took a couple pics of it out and about and also I've had to get my girl ready for her 2nd fight which was about a two month camp but she won and hopefully after a few more will get her in Invicta

 

:-)

 

big progress here !!! i like the style you give back to the car !!
nice job

 

Thanks so much! Did leak down today valves seals are good ..rings are not so I will be putting rings in soon and then I can finally boost it!
