is the ls going in there?

Calesta · 09-17-2005, 04:14 PM

Wow... that thing is beat! Looks like someone put a hatch/coupe bumper and lights on there without trying to mod the fenders too. Good luck with it!

Yeah, the plans are LS with 14b turbo, running uberdata i believe. I bought an ECu from jon at www.phearable.com

The fenders were modded just very poorly i am going to have to smooth them and redo the work with fiberglass or sheetmetal, prolly sheetmetal.

I also had to raplace the trunk lod i will get pics up soon, anyone have or know where i could order a drivers side door with the glass i am keeping any eye open on ebay. I couldn't find any locally in yhe junk yards.

Hoooooooly Moooooooooly talk about starting from the bottom. Here is what I would do:

Step 1. Build a rotisserie.

Step 2. Use rotisserie. Set aside 2 months of after-work time to complete the body.

EDIT: By the way, how much do those Motegis weigh ?

vtecsir1 · 09-18-2005, 02:14 AM

that thing needs to sleep with the fishes. good luck though

hcivic.com · 09-18-2005, 11:00 PM

pissedoffsol · 09-19-2005, 12:39 AM

he passed up my sol for this.... lol but anyway.
4g's in canada is like $8 us, so its about worth it

j/p

we all see what it starts as.... let's see how it turns out....

Seany-izzle · 09-19-2005, 08:33 AM

progress?? [special ed]you got a tire mounted, yay!!!![/special ed]

If you still only have what you said your budget was....youre gonna need more money..

jimboburgess · 09-20-2005, 06:06 PM

Here's some foward movement

$115 hood, $225 door, Integra LS front brakes installed waiting on rears and skunk2 coilovers installed, also.

Yeah! for $50 fenders.

Old and danced upon

$200 gone

The ready and waiting LS

Battle Pope · 09-20-2005, 06:12 PM

as bad as it was before... when you put those Z3 fenders on it, you made it that much worse.

jimboburgess · 09-20-2005, 06:33 PM

Can't argue with tacky when cheap is a factor as well. When painted they will fit. Fiber glass is slightly easier than sheetmetal.

I need to get the hood to fit correctly. Civic brackets don't fit the sol and vice versa.

Plenty of stuff needs to look like a mess before it gets all cleaned up. At least i have a drivers side window now, before it was broken, no more need to cover it with a tarp. well the rain is staying out, but i am also letting the ugly out without a tarp.

TurboMirage · 09-20-2005, 06:53 PM

on your progress!!

jimboburgess · 09-20-2005, 09:26 PM

Ideas on Paint?

I am thinking some scheme of Blue and white, or maybe a light blue to dark blue fade.

What about a spoiler? Obviously it would be purely athsetic. I am leaning toward some type of spoiler to"finish" the rear of the car.

What are your opinions?

brian11to1 · 09-20-2005, 09:30 PM

paint it black.

Black is classic, but boring. Since i am painting the whole car I want people to know that it has been.

Celerity · 09-20-2005, 10:08 PM

Orange with the 01 on the side again

And B: $2000 is closer to $1000 USD. The only currency that's more than the US dollar is (Well, the Euro, I guess) and the Pounds STerling, which is approximately twice the US dollar.

YouKnowWhoIBee · 09-20-2005, 10:09 PM

i like a copper color... paypal me 5 bucks for shipping on those corners. I would bring them up but it will cost me more in gas to get there.
