Hello i bought a EF of one of my friends because he was just lettin it sit in his backyard and rot away so i had to do something about it, i paid $800 for the car it runs and everything but rough (im 17 btw)....

this is how i picked it up

 

cant stand to leave things stock so i started buyin parts and doin work immediately....i found a wrecked SI so i got alot of parts off it it, got the roof the whole interior with gauge clusters and cargo cover also....painted the valve cover wrinkle red also and gave the car a tuneup and put pink hid's, clear corners, and lightly smoked the tail lights and then painted the hood too...also put a new driver side door on (ive only had the car for a week so far)

here are some pics

 

Heres how she looks now a week later

 

plans i have for this year is to do a LS swap and DA rear disc brakes and get a momo steering wheel and a DC center console then get my Si sunroof installed and get EM1 wheels and gauge cluster paint the bumpers and the bottom of the car, put DA lips on it, amber bumper, corner, and fender lights, jdm tail lights....golden eagle tow hook, cusco strut bars, dc 4-2-1 headers, remove the cat get a vibrant 2.5" exhaust, and AEM short ram intake and my MSD ignition with 2 Step...also plan on gettin an oem civic hood bra

 

DPFI to MPFI????

Harness cost me $130ish

i picked up mine $250.00 and btw im 17 yrs also. thing is. i have to restore it..

 

yeahh i have to somewhat restore mine too, i wanna get it painted once i do my DOHC swap...gonna do either copper, galapos green, or tahitian green

 

nice nice.. lol mine is shitty. I have to drop the engine. buy this. and buy that. i spent $2000 already and its not even running yet.. biggest mistake..

 

im doin a DOHC swap....b16a2 in my 91 hatch.
wiring is a pain. so if you want make sure you get the DPFI to MPFI conversion, a obd0-obd1 ecu jumper, and you are going to have to modify your harness to work.

but its looking good so far.

i love mine!!!




just keep it clean man

 

^ noce.. i saw that picture i think it was on your thread

 

gotta keep the EF hatches around.
I GIVE YOU MAD PROPS for restoring one!!!

 

i love my hatch its shitty now it over heats alot well atleast thats wut my gauge cluster saiiz, it really doesnt seem like its over heatin i dont really see any smoke or anything but im droppin the sohc anywaiiz imma go b series for now and eventually do a k swap and a 5 lug swap, i may pic up some sunflower rims for it tomorrow as temps also then put my tow hook on and paint my rear bumper

im curious will a eg coupe lip fit on our front bumpers?

 

Nice hatch, the blue hatch is **** man I love that, what kind of suspension/rims are on it? And I'm trying to get my post count up, it says I'm a trial member since I haven't been on here in so long lol. Oh and btw you will love the car more once you get rid of dpfi, only thing its good for is mpg.

 

Also, where you reving it in this pic? Or is that idling? Lol

 

i revved at 4k on purpose to show the tach actually works instead of it being a dummy one that doesnt work like i see on most cars and do i have to get rid of the dpfi to do the dohc swap? and i believe the blue hatch above has ls mesh wheels painted like bronze or gold

 

you HAVE to convert your car to MPFI. wont work, trust me i am doing it RIGHT NOW as we speak lol.
and dont go over your head in this...im only 18 right now, and i have talked about doing multiple swaps, but im doing this on my own.
If you have about $4000, go ahead and do a k swap. everything will be aftermarket under the hood, intrument cluster, shift box, front suspension....its a bitch. I was going to do a k20a3 but it slipped out of my hands and the person didnt get thier tax refund in time...


and my "bluehatch" which is actually becoming my nickname lol..

it is lowered on RS type coilovers and the LS meshies are painted from a MERCEDES-BENZ. also wrapped in 205/50r15 Neo Gens. so i have about $600 in my meshies alone.

 

How much where the coilovers? And is that a stock blue color? Real clean I will try to post some pics of my rex and my project on here soon, I want smaller rims and a bigger drop.

 

coiloers actually came with the car when i bought it two years ago. all i did was slam it as far as it will go.

it had the stock color on it, but it was oxidized on the top and just kinda crappy, so one day i saw a 2006 MUGEN SI with this color, and i chased him down and got the paint code.
B529P-4.
but once i get my swap installed, i will be ordering Function and Form type 2 coilovers.

 

Damn I guess yuh do learn sumthin new everyday lol but I wanna do a real good ls swap with a gsr LSD tranny aftermarket mounts axles and radiator I got a full msd ignition already

 

gsr tranny has LONG gears....
with the b16 that i posted above i am running a ls tranny right now, but i wanna do a b16 tranny with a LS 3rd and 5th. also going to do skunk2 pro cams and complete valvetrain. 68mm TB, skunk2 intake mani, and maybe a 4-2-1 header.

 

Yeah I kno it does but the ls has even longer gears for some reason I came across, many gar tranny but no Si tranny.....I found a full EF front clip with the jdm front jdm steering wheel rhd dash and components and b16 vtec motor tranny ecu axles mounts and all that other stuff for $1900

 

thats a fairly decent price for all of that. but may be cheaper to piece it together, idk.

During this summer i want to have my JDM front end. but then again i said that last summer

 

My goal is to hav a good running dohc swap and hopefully a new paint job by Honda day in englishtown

 

where you located, in cali? how much you looking to spend on type 2s?

 

^im located in mississippi.
on the type 2's run about 800 BNIB.
plus my car wouldnt be able to pass emissions and smog in cali.

 

i found some integra sunflower rims with tires for $150 i mite pick them up tomorrow
