Default 98 cx hatch progress thread

im starting this as a way to track what im doing with my car. Its not a crazy build, or a hot rod swap. This is just a log of what the car was at when i bought it and where i am taking it.


when i bought this car it had some horrible 18" rims, it does have a nicely done y8 swap, oil covered engine bay, shocks are still blown in front, has SH*TY ebay coils on it. the exhaust is straight piped, some no name camber kit front/rear. It will need a clutch soon, throwout bearing makes noise when engaged, not bad yet but its getting there.


what ive done so far:
rims- 92-93 gsr 14"
valve cover gasket/ paint valve cover
rid car of subwoofer wiring
removed foglights- 1 broken/not wired
put in rotor bolts- they were not fastened to hub
tune up- platinum ngk's, wires, oil, fuel/air/oil filters, planning tbelt/h2o pump/clutch
i think that is it so far.

here are some pics so far.

wish i had pics of dirty engine bay, here it is after degreasing

after painting valve cover/change gaskets

my vc


i am going for just a simple, sporty look with this car. it is my DD so i dont want anything too crazy. i need the relibility these hondas are known for.

anyhoot.... hope you like my build in progress. cant wait to get this car looking respectable and maybe sounding a little better, damn stock muff w/out resonator...
