Default Project EH2 official build. Full Race? 56k no way!

Official build thread. Im gonna stick to the pics rather than get into too much detail ill post details later. Ask questions if need be.

The car is a 95 Civic Hatch DX that was slammed in the front extremely hard. And had minor quarter panel damage.

Picked the car up for $200.



























More coming soon. Just a morning start.

It came together pretty clean. This is my first pull by myself without any guidance. It was very time consuming. But very worth it.

It took a very big hit. The frame rails were pointed to the right at a 90* angle.

Thanks. My plans are to first make this EH clean as fock. I am going to do a complete engine bay shave and tuck. I am going to do the odyssey battery. Cut out the Spare tire. Eventually I want a cage but thats later down the road.

A few upgrades I have done lately are:

OmniPower Rear LCA's
GSR Rear Sway Bar
CF Spoon Duckbill Rep.
Stripped the rear plastics and cleaned every square inch.

I have no clue what I plan on doing engine wise. I love boost but the raw power of n/a gives me an orgasam. So its a tossup.

Ill have more pictures tonight.

Thanks everyone.

Will have pics of full wire tuck (before, during, after) within the next couple days. Then she'll be ready for paint.
