I just got done painting my engine bay black, the car will be black once the kit is on.. The motor is from hmotorsonline, I got it about 2 weeks ago, its going to be dropped in this coming week.

 

Looks good bro!

 

NICE.

Very clean, how hard is it to do the engine bay? What kind of kit is that? Any suspension and or rims mod coming along?

 

to paint that bay I had to pull EVERYTHING.. I took these pics tonight after I got done putting everything back where goes. Painting was easy, the prep work sucks... That is spray paint, it looks so good because I did lots of prep to make sure it would turn out nice.

That kit is the wings west rs kit, and its real.. not a knockoff. edit.. yes I do realize that the ww kit is a knockoff of the mugen kit.. so shutup.

I'm going to be picking up some Tein SS for the suspension and some velox zeta8 sport bronze rims. I just bought some new corbeau gtsII seats today, so the rims and suspension will have to wait a few weeks. I had to get new seats, mine are brown seats from a dx, that and the seats smell like cats [so does the carpet]. The previous owner sucked.

 

lookin good, I still cant wait till you paint the car to see how the moldings turned out. btw have you beatin the frame rail for alt clearance?

 

you know it.. I used a dead blow mallett so it didn't scratch paint or anything..
I don't think I even needed to do it either.. I bought a 295 length alternator belt and the alternator is all the way in.


edit.. those sides of the car where I was shaving the mouldings.. I'm grinding that back out so I can put the WW kit on..
I got tired of sanding, thats why I bought the kit.

 

everything looks great so far. good luck with it.

 

Wow looking good, I'm far too lazy to take all that stuff out ..what timeframe are you looking at the finished product?

 

that looks reallt good man. looks like it was lots of fun too

 

i'm going to have the motor bolted in tomorrow.. the body kit will be mounted probably next weekend, then the next week will be painting.

 

Looks like it is coming along nicely

 

Looks great!

steve@ HMO never fails to dissapoint!

i swear his motors are loking cleaner and cleaner!~

hey your engine bay reminds me a little of mine



dont forget to do the rest of the car too

 

your engine bay looks JUST like mine.!! i just took my motor out like last week and painted everything.. man they look just alike

 

doin the same wit my motor bay right now (black also) and i dunno if you cleared everything yet but i think it adds soooo much shine. just a suggestion but even without it it looks dope. keep up the good work and ill post some pics up of mine.

 

motor is in.. not running yet though, took me like 3 hours to get the mounts all aligned and bolted in.. here comes the fun stuff, wiring and connecting all the hoses back.

V-TACK CRX PWN3Z ALL!!!

 

Nice and CLEAN


BUMP

 

What, no love for the barbados? Looks good, can't go wrong with black

 

Engine bay looks great!

You should have cleaned up all the accessories/firewall crap though....they're very dirty! Like the brake booster

 

Damn thats engine compartment is shiny. Now do the rest of the car and dont go y-49.

Looks good

actually that brake booster has peeling paint.. so its not dirty.. the other stuff i'll probably wipe down and armor all once everything is in.
