thank you thats what i was thinking but i wasnt 100% possitive. awell common mistake

 

that is expanda foam that you buy in the spray can at the hardware store.

I'd say get the big parts out with a sharp tool.

When I use it around the house if there ends up being too much I leave it to set up them cut it with a sharp stanley blade.

You could probably use thinners after that.

 

thank you for your help. i will do it this weekend

 

one of my good friends actually had the same **** in his integra trunk.

FIrst he scrapped most of it off with a chizle

after that he got dry ice.. i was amazed on how good dry ice works.

 

well what sucks for me is i dont have the tools to handle dry ice . and plus i am going to be 17 in about a week and a half so im not even old enough to buy it can anyone post a pic of what the back of a hatch looks like becuase i never really looked at how its all set up so i know what i should be making it look like

 

what is that foam?

 

i really dont know but i want it out i think im just going to strip the back , i really cant do much with it i dont have seats or anything

 

start using a flathead screw driver or chizzle dont take out all the interior jus buy the back seat man

 

well. im more twords spending money on an engine swap and getting this thing street legal becuase right now most of the wiring is cheaply riged , i mean every time i hit the brakes the open door light on the cluster comes on.....*thinks* might be my problem to the brake lights maby not working .. i have no idea. im going to look on saterday and start cleaning up all the foam. and maby scoring some interior from local ef hatchys

The brand is called "greatstuff". It is used to seal up houses and such to stop air from coming through around your windows and such. Alot of people use it to build a air tight stereo box. It really ghetto and sucks when you want to take it out.

Looks like you have your hands full though. Good luck.

 

Ah "greatstuff", my winter beater is full of that ****. It keeps the water and exhaust out but it is hell to clean up.

 

looks like you have a good project ahead of you

 

ya it was my plan..but not this bad awell , keeps me busy , only problem i have though is im on a part time and school budget and time limit , so either im going to go with a b16 or b18 , gotta love v tech ! and of course my friend owns a srt4 so i feel in love with boost . would it be easyer scence i am on a budget to buy the long block then buy after market parts or buy the whole swap ?

dude this happeend to me go in the engine bay and in the fuse box there is a fuse that says STOP/(somethign)


but check for a blown fuse! Your brake lights ARENT working check this fuse

it happened to me!!

 

thank you also i have found out that only my brights work on the head lights the person who ownd it before got some projecter lights but only made the brights work .... im hoping that i have time off from work and school around my b day to work on this ...girlfriends also take up alot of time....

 

paint your bumper trim black, it'll make it look 100% better.

for the pic of what a hatch looks like:

I painted the "bowl" black because I ran out of the correct color white:



That foam, just cut as much as you can with a hacksaw blade, knife, razor, whatever you've got. After you get it cut out, it can be "melted" with solvents.

The dry ice trick is for the sound deadening. Not worth it IMO unless you're building a race car. You don't really need any special tools, just leather gloves and a hammer and bag to crush it.
