Default My Eg Hatch transformation

Hey guys, I'm new to the site. I'm 16 and I've had a few builds. I had a ef hatch for my first car which I riced out and then ended up selling it. Then an ek coupe which I made beautiful but it was auto. Got rid of that and now I have a real, 100% authentic Gsr Integra with a original b17a1 sitting on coils ad xxr 531's. I want something new so I bought a completly stock, unmolested, automatic 1995 eg hatch with only 95,000 original miles, yes, only 95k. Here's some pics and my future plans are:
-Convert it to stick (have all the parts, in the process)
-Dr-21 silver Jmags w/ extended lugs
-Midori Green paint job w/ tons of body work
-Slam it on coilovers
-Duckbill wing
Let's see how my eg hatch turns out, Here's when I got it:

Don't make people have to go elsewhere to view images.
Get the image link. Should look like this
http://gyazo.com/b17a05a7f7871004276589feec90930f.png
Press this icon

A dialog box will pop up.
Erase everything in the box and paste that URL in the now empty field and hit OK. Done.

Alright guys so I got the car 4 days ago and I converted it to 5 speed. I will post pics soon. My coilovers just came in the mail! I'll post em also. I picked up Jmags with very good and streched tires yesterday for cash and steelies. I dropped the car off at the body shop today and it's getting tons of body work done to it.

To get the PROPER image URL right click one image and if you see it select "Copy image URL"

I hope you're not using Ebay parts on this build 'cause those look like Ebay no-name coilover sleeves/springs.

There .jpg on my desktop, how would I get them from my desktop to here? And I'm not using any ebay parts except these cheap coilovers that are temporary until I get full body racelands.

Lol whats wrong with streched tires? and Ebay coilovers are temporary. I had $600 to spend and I'd rather have paint on my car and ride on ebay no names for about 3 weeks until I get full body racelands, then have good suspension and no paint. Lol

@doctorake - first off, the dude is only 16 and he's brand new on the forum...way to make someone feel welcome. Second, I don't see anything wrong with someone who's just starting out, putting a few cheapy parts on. He's 16 years ols for God's sake! He probably bags groceries for pennies or works as a bus boy somewhere...not exactly raking in the gold if you know what i mean. Give him a break! D#uche!

Anyway, keep it up kid...one day you'll have a K Swap and you can look back at where u came from.

Just as I though this thread will be very entertaining.

Paint does not get your car safely from point A to point B. If your already cutting corners I can only imagine the paint job.

I have a fully built and original gsr, I think I know what I'm doing to you that are talking junk. Me and my dad are rebuilding the gsr and doing a full wire tuck and shave the bay and putting a fully built b17 on a b16 type R motor and while we are doing that I won't have a car so I bought a hatch and I'm working on it. I work at a restraunt as a server 2 days a week and give me 2 weeks and watch how clean my this car is, then you guys can talk.

^ Theres no excuse putting on $50 suspension. Even if its temporary. Leave the damn stock suspension on till you can afford the disgracelands.

However, will be cool to see more pics

My brother had ebay coilovers on his car for 6 months without a problem and they were all the way down. I'm 16 with 2 cars, one being a og gsr, and a stock hatch and I have a job. Wonder where you guys were at then..? Exactly. Compare what I have now to what you have now, I gurantee your car is nothing compared to mine.
