ok iv built a few of these cars but this will be my first time to share my build in a thread. long story short iv been trying to get my hands on this car for the past 3 years i finally found it again and bought it now that it was for sell "after bugging the owner" its a 92 civic hatchback that is 110% all original as you will see in the pictures below never been touched other then the rims.

im gonna take pictures as I go and post them as I go. im going to repaint it completly inside and out put a full suspension on it and the works. I do have a fully built b16a in another thread for sale to work on this car but if it does not sale it will be going in the hatch as well.

any way keep an eye on my build im gonna try to make it nasty from a full wire tuck n shave. A complete tear down and build up.

BUDGET SO FAR is $1100 for the car
$150 for carbon wing
$120 for carbon mirrors
$210 for dual beam HID kit with 10000K bulbs
$110 new black housing headlights and amber corners
$100 new 50/50 tail lights
$850 new rims n tires

I already have the complete suspension skunk2 and kyb spent a **** load on it from my last build that got totaled you might see it in the background

and





comments appreciated and thanks for the follow on this thread

 

I can see this wil be a nice build. Any particular setup your going for? Asthetics, HP, etc. Im doing my mini me swap currently.

 

Lookin' good for sure! I do love both the EG and EK hatchies, wish I found one before I bought my coupe. Instead the gf go the 2000 DX hatch, good luck on build!

 

my last built was a fully built GSR swap all nicey under the hood and i have a built b16 type r swap but im selling it here in another thread because this time around im just gonna do the d16z6 out of my other "3rd" hatch that i wrecked and go for show. in the next week or so im gonna have it sprayed with candy. im gonna do a full wire tuck and shave under the hood complete interior swap "maybe" the wrecked on has dark grey interior but it doesent matter im gonna have it all done as well and then im gonna do some minor engine mods like intake TB cold air and boost it. I already have the turbo kit and every thing i need just lack the paint and the start of the strip down

 

kool. this is actually my 5th eg in the past year and a half i always seem to let em go or have 2 at once but not this one. it will be garage kept daily show queen HOPEFULLY

 

what do you all think go with the dark grey almost black interior or keep what its got? the plastics and dash door panels are all black on bottom with dark crey seats n carpet. or keep what in it?

the dark interiors rear plastics are cracked up now due to the wreck and a few of the rear pieces are blue and the interior in the car is minty? however im swapping the front seats for sure they are gsr seats.

 

well i got the headlights and the hid kit in and they sent the wrong stuff so I sold it locally and orderd another set from someone else GRRRRRRRR

I did however get the 50/50 tail lights in and the carbon wing will be in tomorrow so ill be sure to get some pics and get them uploaded here.

 

alot of trash in that car lol but good luck with build, will be watching

 

I got my wing and 50/50 tail lights in here's a couple of pics to add to my build thread

HERE IS THE SPOON CARBON FIBER WING


HERE ARE THE 50/50 TAIL LIGHTS

 

I know right lol its all gone now and cleaned up ready for the interior swap lol

 

Good start how much did that wing run you?

 

Someone missed the first post...

 

Lol my bad I just looked at the pictures and read from there down

 

thanks for all the comments guys and hopefully tomorrow ill get the rest of it in HOPEFULLY.

I'm laying low today i had 2 teeth pulled and now I got a soar jaw

 

Hey guys sorry its been a while since I posted been busy with work and the family thing along with trying to squeeze in time for the hatch. Any way i did finally get all my parts in and i got the motor pulled out and the suspension swapped over so im going to post a few picks for you all and also tell you a little more about what going to happen next.

I was going to just clean up the engine bay wire tuck it wash n wax it and bring it back to a shine but instead i decided to paint it " the whole car" that way it will have a super clean paint job inside and out. next week im going to start on the wire tuck and filing in all the unnecessary holes in the engine bay and get it all ready for the paint then im going to move to the body and get it ready for paint.

I still have not sold the built type R so if anyone is interested LMK im getting rid of it for pennies compared to what its actually worth to help me on my build. Iv decided to stick with my d16z6 out of my wrecked hatch because i get 55mpg with it and im gonna be hittin a lot of shows this year and want something to be dependable enough to drive across the map lol.

any way lets get to the "EYE CANDY"

THE NEW 10000K SUPER BLUE HID KIT


THE NEW BLACK HOUSING HEADLIGHTS WITH AMBER CORNERS


THE NEW SPOON CARBON FIBER MIRRORS




THE SUSPENSION SWAPPED FROM MY WRECKED HATCH
consist of skunk2 coilovers and upper camber control arms SPC rear camber kit and KYB adj shocks GSR rear disk break conversion and drilled and slotted front rotors








THE ENGINE BAY AFTER PULLING THE MOTOR "soon to be fully tucked n shaved"


AND THIS IS THE HATCH HOW IT SITS NOW






and last but not least this is the color im going to paint it. its called true blue Perl and its a polyurethane paint so its super durable and i also got a polyurethane true blue sealer primer so if the car gets a scratch or a nick in it it wont be as noticeable because the primer will be the same color as the paint plus the car is already a dark blue to begin with. hopefully it will be ready to be sprayed within the next couple of weeks.



I just orderd the paint stuff and a brand new F1 stage 3 clutch so it should be in sat or mon but as soon as it gets in ill get some pics and get them posted for ya. Well thats it for now guys thanks for following and i look forward to the comments, thoughts and any ideas you feel like throwing out there. until next time lets keep the hatches alive and party like a rock star

 

Super cool bro, great work.

 

thanks bro hopefully ill have it done within the next few weeks

 

looks like your off to a good start, i really like the cup holder too.

 

thanks bro im trying. and right it holds it perfectly gotta keep the ice tea somewhere close lol

 

Alrighty guys another week another post just finished striping the whole car to nothing to perform a wire tuck "the right way" and get her ready for paint. iv got a little more wiring to do to finish up the hid kit tuck and then its off to the body work which is just a few door dings here and there. So before any one asks what the circles are on the car that where there are little door dings.

ok now off to the pictures.
