Hey guys, this had started out with "My day today-Replaced rotors" but that thread got locked, i think its cuz i was laggin it on the pics. Opened up a photobucket and when i go to post i couldnt, lol ... o well so here goes guys. Basically i bought me this hatch for $600, including the vx's. I now drive a 92 civic dx w/ jdm gsr swap. The reason i bought this car is because the body is 50 times cleaner. Im also hopin to releas a couple of horses, since the vx is a lil lighter than the rest of the trims. I plan to swap my gsr in this hatch. So here the project without wheels

 

Day1: Removed rotors and replaced them with some brembo, slot only! Then i decided just take the calipers off and give em a paint job!


BEFORE

AFTER

 

Day2: Painted calipers and started on the rims!


THIS IS WHAT THEY LOOKED LIKE WHEN I GOT THEM, MAD SCRATCHES!

ALL PAINT IS OFF, THAT AIRCRAFT STRIPPER WORKS LIKE MAJIC!

 

you got alot of work ahead of you...GL

 

Day3: Put calipers back on, what you think? also painted the rims white, i think im gonna do the "h" red and theres some writin on the rims im also gonna do red, only did two rims not all four!




AND I THINK ITS COMIN ALONG PRETTY GOOD

damn what are those 80's? u need some 45's or less on there. 4x4 tires FTL

 

How about putting the car back together instead of changing the brakes?

DIY!!

 

Well brakes needed to be replaced, so i am putting it together, not all at once though ... not BALLIN like some of yall, but it will be together, and it will be nice!

 

Alright, so i added the red, what do you guys think? I want i red strip that goes around the entire wheel. Any ideas on how i can do that?

 

i like the red i think a red strip would be overkill tho

 

cutout a big circle out of cardboard and lay that bitch out
then get some new rubber for those monster tires

 

Wheels are the best part.
