Default mr.coupe ej7 build up thread o manggggg! update! k20, shave, fun!

last update: 6/30/07
<FONT SIZE="8">new pics 49,50,54,55,56,61,63,64,65,67,69,71,72,73,74</FONT>

[b] Okay, so this started out last christmas after spinning a rod bearing in my 98' spec jdm b18cr.....after a rebuild, tuck, and so on the shop that built the motor completely fucked it...I mean really bad...and ripped me off and won't pay me back ****...(may be taking this to court)..the video below can show you. So now I've decided to do a full makeover and another heart..ha....the basic line up for this build is as follows...

-K20
-bay shave/tucked brake lines ect (already had done the wire-tuck)
-full respray vsm
-exterior/interior makeover...(cage, seats, wheels....all the good junks )

Theres the plan, follow the pages posted about, feel free to look through previous pages to see the old build but its nothing special.

Heres what the car used to look like last year




After the rebuild on the bay and such the result was this



Now heres the video from tearing down the motor....crank walk...pistons slappin cylinder walls....metal shavings in head....the list goes on.


heres a random video of starting up the car and such...before I knew the motor was fuckedddd..haha.


So heres what the car looks like now








heres a shout out to chase he does good work....he did my brake lines...their almost done....hes playing forza right now hahah











More later.....follow the pages I post on the top or just stick to the last pages....I'm posting updates alot faster now.

Thanks for checkin it out

Thanks, they started out as replacement wheels until I could get new ones, (got them from a friend after rotas bent) Then I decided to keep them, but the problem is I get pm's all the time asking what wheels they are and where to get them Thats honda-tech for you, it's always hard to stay unique

Thanks for the comments guys
