Default I finally got the car done!!!!

I finally got my car done!..To bad its kinda late in the season!!lol…I bought the car in the beginning of the summer..But due to my low paying job and and paying for school it took me a long time to get everything for the swap..I bought the car with out a motor and tranny 98 dx coupe. So basically I bought the shell..Then When I saved up some money I went to my local junk yard and purchased a B18B swap..For a really good price..Then I called my boy Chameleon to help me out with the swap and he help me out A LOT…Since it was my first swap ever he basically did the swap and I help him and asked a lot of questions..lol..And I’ll let the pics talk for themselves from here on:….

I know my camera sux but its all i got..

Shh!!!..She's sleeping!!!!


No motor!!...


Mmmm...So freah so Clean..lol


Lookin good...


Chameleon working on the motor...


Chameleon and midoriEk chillin in front of the whip...


Did Dx coupe's come with rear disc brakes!??!?!... (Kinda missing some lug nuts lol)..the car is parked so its all good


Motor in and running..Jus messing with some wiring and some codes..


MidoriEk and Chameleon trying to learn how to use there camera..lol (chameleon looks very concentrated.lol)


Thats it for now more pics will come when i wash her and take her out for a drive...

Yea man i'm glad i didn't take the car to shop nd get it done..I learned a lot during this swap..it's a real good i dea to do it yourself with some help instead of taking it to a shop..

your car really has rear disc? was there like a abs module in the engine bay? if your car came factory with it then nice buy. Or was the car hooked up before and the rear disc were added.
