Well after a 2 years of winter in chicago, my DA is not happy to say the least haha
I have done bondo twice, prepped and prepared it very well and took my time and yet the rust always finds its way back and fast...
So my question is how hard would the swap be.. everything in my DA to a EG shell...
what wouldnt match up?
*I posted this here bc i knew the integra guys would want me to keep the DA haha*

I looooove eg's and always wanted one. Money is very tight and if i could just get a clean shell for about a thousand or so and do all the work myself (DIY kinda guy) that would be a fantastic summer project
-yes its my DD-

 

I'd buy another DA shell.

<---- Lazy.

 

haha but I love civic hatches!
i neeeeeed one lol

 

maybe fix the rust the right way, with metal. although there is still a possiblility it could come back. northern winters suck, i cant wait to get outta here and not have to worry about rust.

if you're trying to swap out body parts, then personally i think it will look like crap.
either buy another DA or pick up an EG and start over.

 

first off the swap is not hard at all ive done it sevral times with basic knowledge and hand tools it can be done in a day but being that its a da your gonna run into issues
1 Cable tranny need hasport motor mount kit will fix
2 obdo vehicle best way if to replace intake manifold, wiring, sensors and distrributor
3 you will need a shift linkage from a 94+ integra

 

haha not swapping body parts, ill reword myself
I want to have an eg, and would like a summer project, would swapping parts into an EG be difficult. I will not be touching exterior or interior, just everything else haha =p
I do not want to fix the rust, bc here is the following things broken: Driver door handle, driver window, glovebox, RUST RUST more Rust, typical DA passenger floor leak, backseat leak, trunk leak, massive scratched windshield, broken gas door/lid thing, dented fender (hit n run) missing mudflap and spashguard on passenger side, causing water to get into engine bay and get on battery ....
All in all I want an eg, and im broke, and i love projects.
Thank you

I have a 90 integra, so i have obd0... i have brand new rebuilt dizzy... im confused sorry if its really simple and im just not getting it ..

I would just like to know if I would need any special tools or anything, and would i be able to do it with just an engine lift in my garage by myself?
Motor mounts match and everything like that and radiator? What would I have to buy?
Thanks for all your time guys, Much appreciated
