EG MIKE's Official EJ Build Thread
Well it has been about 2 years now until I have worked on my projects, and with the boost of motivation I have these days, I am eager to finish this one as soon as possible! I do not have the excuse of school and work getting in the way, I am finally only working!
Cliff Notes of Story:
I got this Teal EG as a daily and hydroplaned on the interstate into the middle median! My good friend Josh gave me his coupe that was stolen and stripped completely. For me this is perfect as I have the Teal EG full of useful parts. This project has been worked on and left alone for about 2 years now. I am finally out of college and have free time and the motivation to finish this project!
UPDATE: No pics at the moment, but I have picked up another EG with a swap and I am going to sue its engine in the coupe since it is a salvage titled car.















I will update the pictures when I get home, I do not have all my pictures on my laptop.

Thanks man
muoar pics!
Well, got to work on it again. fixed the fuel leak for now with some rubber fuel host and 2 clamps. (cheap)
Got the engine running friday night! The fans did not cut on so I didn't let it run long. I have to go back and check the sensor and maybe the wiring. More to come.
I got a donor eg and stripped the engine/suspension and integra front brakes onto the coupe.
Heres the pics:

I need to start taking more pics. But there will defiantly be updates. no reason there shouldn't ( gots the camera and motivation to get this dd on the road )
I got to check the fan out Wednesday night to see if it works. It did not engage Saturday when both hoses go same temp.

Well got to work on it some Sunday...
I installed the exhaust and new horn.
I also checked the radiator fan out. I used the paperclip trick and the fan does work. I tested the engine again to see if the fan would come on and it didn't when the two hoses got to the same temperature. I am thinking about replacing the sensor and thermostat first off... I should get these this week..

Thanks man! me too 
Haha yeah man, that was a pretty cool addition to try to cover my ugly black hood ;P. He is gone now, arm ripped off going down the road haha!
I got 1 running eg (running blue), 1 completly stripped eg (from signature) and 1 donor salvage titled eg (wrecked blue). 1 coupe..
Good eg's here in atl are expensive too, you just have to find the deals when they come about. I got my first eg from a friend grandma, the 2nd from a local import forum, 3rd from another forum, and the last one from a good friend after he wrecked it. Check your craigslist and look in peoples yards for eg's that haven't moved in a while.
Hey I remember you! I had that high compression D-series back then. You still got that hatch?
Haha! yeah sure is. Ebay $50. It is loud as ****! Should be fun to mess with people.

What are you working on now? got a thread?
Updates tonight.
Go to work on the passenger side tuck. I'm not too sure if the corner light will fit but looks close so if not i'll fix that. I put my new fog lights in the bumper and started running the wires for it. Also snapped some pics of the A/C box to show what harness I need to match my box. On with the pics!
happy cinco de mayo!!






Heres the one that matches the harness (plug) but I do not have the lines for the engine bay for this one.

Here is the one I need the harness for. Notice the plug will not work with it ( ?? 92-93 modeL?? )
