I like the Fit wheels. I just bought a pair of EFs. Got a '91 (I think) hatcback with a GSR engine and a B series cable trans. Hatch is a little rough so I'm swapping it into a '91 Sedan.

I'll be following this build because I want to do something similar with mine.

EDIT: Forgot my question. You got info on the traction bar install? I saw you used a Full Race traction bar. I found a link to a writeup but it was a dead end.

rims are 15s actually. they come 16s too but sorta hard to find atleasts here lol.. for the traction bar it was a direct bolt on I was told . Tim from Turboelements from AZ thats here in TX now put it on since the car is at his house and he is installing my turbo and doing my intercooler set up etc and the fuel system.

what are the offset of the rims? +20?

and why such large injectors and top mount? kind of overkill no?

the drag rims i beleive so.

and not really trying to make 600hp on e85 until i get my sleeved block then turn it up somemore.

right now the block is built with a block guard should be enough for now.

top mount got a great deal on it from turboelements and could not say no, plus trying to build a little different ef than usual, plus around here there is none like this one just yet in SA or maybe even TX

yeah cage is next after this is done with full interior etc nothing taken out. and a hydro conversion. im confident the car will be in the 10s with this set up if i can get it to hook. we got a few eg's here at 350hp only running 11.3s and can get a bit lower soon on stock bottom ends. so we will see should be interesting..
