Default 92 CX Hatch Build Yo

just picked this up this morning traded my EG8 for it. 2 month old paint job, 25k on rebuilt motor, has a few tiny interior flaws that are bugging me but it is still very nice car.

Mods that came on it"
CAI
Straight pipe (sounds like booty )
Tein lowering springs on stock struts (rides AMAZING)


Heres a quick picture i snapped of it when i got it. (havent got any more will post some tomorrow)


My plans :
new wheels
boost it
ws2 exhaust
and a interior swap (blue interior sucks)

thanks ! i am very happy with the trade i made. i started to tinker with it a little today and started my wire tuck ( have one crappy cell pic)

the front of it (took the tag off the front lol)


the only damage of the body. looks like someone rear ended it but in the side of the back bumper lol.


the sides.



started on the tuck, it had ac on it but was missing the compressor so i tore it out along with a couple of misc. harnesses that lead no where.

I'd just save up for a swap, or throw some boost on her!

I personally am a huge fan of D series.

XXrs are pretty knock off, I was just wondering because I almost got some XXRs but they were only in 17s. They look good though, I was confused because I was like "No way those are 17s" Keep it updated man
