ok so that was when i towed it home gutted the whole car painted the interior did a wire tuck switched to obd1 then swaped in the jdm vtec single put all new running gear ball joints tie rod ends replaced all the bushings with polythane put rear disc on it and coilovers added integra seats and upgraded to some jdm goddies on the inside along with the outside put the car back together and painted it with single stage black looked good for about 2 years now its time for a real paint job but here is some current pics of what it looks like for now
so most people would say wow just paint it and its done but im bored of it and want something well differnt so here is a little list of whats to come u will have to check in to see all the goodies though
so im gutting it again only this time im taking all the sound deadner out, adding roll cage, one peice suspention, sway bars, shaving the engine bay, and yes major motor upgrade, retucking the wires into one hole maybe a brake line tuck hopefully i can find a jdm front bumper not too concerned about that though and some more stuff on the inside and new paint which is whats gonna set this apart from the rest keeping that a secret though just have to stay tuned lol, cool ill post pics *** often as i can...

I was curious what you were gonna do with this thing next. but you gotta tell me what motor you plan on going with because you know i cant let you rock the hottest ef hatch in jefferson county lol. just kidding but yeah man if you need an extra hand with anything feel free to hit me up. Its funny how we start out with nearly identical cars, straight body and all besides the under tailight filler peice booboo.

wow u had to throw that in there yes this was the same hatch that looked like something off of fast and the furious but it did have a turbo dohc zc in it that was fun.. motor and tranny are 700 or 550 for the motor still have all the paper work with it and leak down test.

its all good lol ur right this car has been through alot i think thats why i still got it, ya the motor is super strong and really fast for a single and yup that was proably me i didnt think id still be on the road with it but the weather has been so nice its kinda nice to drive it a little bit before its parked for awhile, just hit me up if ur interested in the motor i got it on cl only had a few calls though...
little update got some time to start getting the inside all cleaned im going alittle overboard this time cause im not sure that interior will be going back in this one so i want the new paint to look really good inside also,,,

good luck on the ride homie i did a brake line tuck on my rhd crx and i think its the ****,people on here are haters and say its not cool or its a fad do whatever you wanna do. i have people tellin me to scrap my ls turbo setup and go b16 turbo but ive seen a bunch of ls turbo's with just a fuel system and tuned hit 300-350 horsepower and a few guys are boosting 14 pounds on a stock ls think about that when ur looking for a motor
the wing im gonna get to soon they will be for sale proably around next summer and hope to get them as low as i can go around 150 or so ill keep everone posted thanks.
ok so some updates been a little slow this weekend got some new goodies for the shop though so it was worth it here is some new pics,
got most the sound deadner out from the rear seat area started on the out side got all the side molding off. i did most the body work when i painted it last time, however there was one spot that was kinda bad so i just filled it well now that im doing it super nice and have all the panels out im getting all the bodo off and fixing the dent the right way plus there was some bodo left from the old body kit years ago just cleaning her up..
