Default ::96 Hatch Overdue Pics:: (w/Painted HX Wheels Mounted) :)

Well, I love the way my car looks. Once I get that engine phase complete, I will love it even more. The engine is currently still a stock d16y7 but some day. I don't really see the point in moding a D series non-Vtec.

As far as the pictures, these were taken on a Sony 5 mega pixel camer that I borrowed from someone. The picture quality that it takes was really good and I wanted to do some night shots, but I had to have it back so I was stuck with daylight I'll list the major mods at the end.










Major mods:
EX Gauge Cluster
Integra Seats
Spec RM Complete Coilovers System
HX Wheels (I painted)
OEM S2000 Muffler (more quiet that stock)

Well, more pictures can be found on my website: http://www.deviantpixels.com

And while I'm posting pictures, here is a misc picture I took:

This picture was actually 2160 x 1440 so I blew it down a lot, but the resolution was soooo good with this sony 5MP camera.

Yea, Thats just the way I mounted it. I didn't really care cause a CTR Rear lip will hide the cannister and it will balance out.

Yea, I know, but right now I'm really trying to decide between the 96-98 front bumper or the 99-00 bumper before I dedicate to one and then change my mind.

As far as the suspension, I consider it temporary cause I am still set on the Tein SS but need a steady income after I graduate College before I dive into the car with that much money. Thats probably when the swap is coming too.

As for the exhaust, It kicks *** and all but I think I miss the sound of a loud *** muffler As long as it has a silencer to get some peace every now and then, so I'm taking the muffler off and switching to a free flow performance muffler.

So all you EK owners, heres your chance to get a S2000 muffler already modified to fit an EK I'll take offers now but the new muffler should be here and on by this saturday.

All in all. I consider myself at a resting point in a phase of the hatch. Meaning, now I'm just going to come to HT every day without looking at the "Classifieds" for like 2 hours straight. But I think its time to just save money. I'll do some serious work after my life is stable enough to take anything and have to to sell parts off my car to get school books

Looks awesome, man. I like the paintjob you did on those HXs. Really nice looking. I say keep the '96-'98 front and add on an SiR front lip. Only $120 shipped from manhonda.com.

I think I'm going to take this guys advice on the front end But thanks all for the feedback.

Oh yea, whats wrong with my tires? Somebody said I should get some "lower profile" tires. I love these things. I can drive in the rain and snow which azenis just can't do. I have really good tracktion, no more pointless burnouts and no more chirping in between gears

As for the muffler, my plan was go get a CTR rear lip which would cover the canister part of the muffler anyway so you wouldn't notice the tilt.
