Hey everyone.

This is gonna be my ongoing thread with all my updates on the new hatch.
I bought this beauty 2 months ago from Louisiana for 5200. A lot of money for a hatch but she had only 43,000 original miles and is in damn good shape.
The car is used for Road racing in the summer and commuting all year round. During winter I have my samurai to drive in the shitty weather.

Current mods are as following:

Engine:
b18b1 swap
intake
Getting different swap end of summer

Exterior:
custom oem black with red flake paint

Interior:
EP3 seats on eg rails (pita!)
redline goods shift boots
panasonic mp3 player
JL amp and 8" sub
Eclipse components

Suspension:
SI wheels
Omni power sports
Omni lcas
Omni camber kits
(thanks FunctionMotoring )


Other than that this is a bone stock SI. Future plans involve either A)k20a2 swap, or b) built NA gsr swap with b16lsd tranny. Which one depends on how busy the firefighting season is this summer. Planning on some 15x7 wheels that are lighter very soon. Also adding comptech rear sway/tie bar kit. I have oem front lip that needs to be installed as well.

here's the pics. Hi res available on my website http://www.eghatch.org/gallery












New pics coming when the weather clears up next week, and the engine bay will be a little cleaner h:

 

Looking good Brady! Car is awesome

 

clean!

 

Nice!

 

Sweeeeeeeeet. That's a fun project car!

 

looks fun, what new swap is going into that car?

 

Why a new swap? Boost it. :irock:

 

beautiful

 

very nice.

 

Thanks for all the compliments guys

boost and tracking don't mix well. I love the feeling of boost but thats not what this car is for.

As stated on the original post, either a stock (i/h/e) k20a2, or a mildly built (11.5:1 max) gsr motor. Not sure on which one yet. Depends greatly on how much money I make this summer and how much I need for school again next fall. Either way I'm excited. I miss vtec
