cool car, but your ground wire is in the wrong spot. it needs to be on the actual valvecover bolt, not that little extension. just move it over one bolt to the left.

Looks simlar to my boy's hatch... And yeah, reground your motor.

On my Hondas, I used motorcycle battery cables (which are very thick) to optimally ground the motor.

Looks like a Honda parts pourpouri.

Your paint needs some work. Its definitely seen better days.
Otherwise it looks pretty good.

Does it really make that big of a difference if it's under a valve cover bolt or not? What's that threaded hole for then?

looks good, but it needs a lip and a wing imo to finish off the exterior

Thanks for the warning on the tail lights (full body shiver)

Get yourself a high speed buffer and bring some of that paint back.

Looks good and the seats are tight yo. no really I like em.

I had a couple of in depth talks with local Honda mech's and exactly where the ground hooks up is really no big deal...so Ive been told outside this board.

The threaded hole on the timing belt cover is for a bracket used to hold the throttle cable on RHD cars.
