About the build:


My goal with this 5 year long build of mine has been to keep the car as original as possible but with a quality over welmed look to it and a JDM twist to it. Nothing to flashy but eye catching if you know your parts. I also kept the original paint color (R72P). In a nut shell made it look like it did in 1990 driving down the road but if you take a close look at it you will see the quality top to bottom, left to right, inside and out. I did a JDM theme for a lot of the parts to keep that quality appearance. The engine bay has had a full wire tuck and bay shave done. I have kept the color theme of CAD plating threw out the entire engine bay with Earl’s fitting and steel braided line. I have eliminated the wipers, window squirters, power steering, and A/C. I re-located the proportioning valve and the fuse box to inside the car. I sealed up and shaved every un-needed hole. I have sandblasted every piece of metal and then powder coated it black. Everything that said Acura I changed to Honda. With all this said I hope to slowly gain respect from muscle car/Hot rod builders that a import cars are the new Hot rods to the next generation.
