Bought the shell about 8 months ago...93 cx hatch
This is how it looked when I brought it home. Notice 3 17's and 1 18 on stock struts/springs![Blue LOL :bluelol: :bluelol:](/forum/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/lolol.gif)
hmo 99 ctr swap![Thumbs Up :thumbs up :thumbs up](/forum/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/goodjob.gif)
Retardation got the best of me...didnt realize the hood was rubbing on the valve cover for the 1st week of having the motor in![Confused :???: :???:](/forum/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_confused.gif)
Yeah had a nice swap, but car still looked
Got the full swap cheap, but was still poor afterwards. Easy cheap fix to her appearance. First came steelies...
Then kyb gr2's w/ h&r sport springs
Rolled like that for a few months, then got some 15x7.5 dr20's in trade for some motorswap work
Got a sir2 valvecover and pwjdm hood risers to prevent any more VC shaffing. Made a 3" short ram outta fiberglass as well to replace that hideous intake I had
Wasn't too into the offset of the wheels. Put em on craigs for trade and 15min later guy offered mint circuit 8's w/ brand new toyo proxes4 w/ $100 bucks ontop.
C-8's are lighter, had same tires, + cash ![Cool :cool: :cool:](/forum/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_cool.gif)
Got a few things from a local tuner. Picked up new amber corners, blk housing headlights, depo fogs, and a yonaka catback.
Picked up a jdm ferio cluster from a local junkyard for cheap...plan on swapping out the fuel/temp guage to a manual one
Went to the junkyard again and got airbox outta a dc2, and the intake pipe outta a dc4...
Slow progress w/ a family and recently buying a house. Just currently enjoying my time w/ her and love working on her.![Smilie =) =)](/forum/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
