So after buying martin's hatch didn't know where to start since this car pretty much was track/street ready. After taking it for several quick runs around my street (I mean quick, no insurance...) was really happy, feeling more happier after every run.

So this is how the car looks, pretty much the same how I got it.

-Godspeed coilovers, silver LCA's,lower rear strut bar, c pillar bar, front top strut bar, HIDs, ........... yeye.. you get it right






My b16 sitting there, really under estimated the b20, seems to have a faster take off then my b16 which was in my integra. Or is it just me? Then again it is a lighter car



Needed a map sensor, and was able to get one from the scrap yard (was idling rough almost to the point where it wanted to stall). $10 fix.


Old one


New "old" one, idling fine now.

Changed the spark plugs with NGK v power




old ones

After that I relocated the hood release cable through the engine bay...improved security lol, prepped and painted wiper arms, installed b&m short shifter, and cleaned up the engine bay.


can see the hood release cable , lol, doesn't look pretty I know




integra shifter linkage , wasn't able to take pictures of me installing it.
very short shifts now.


After cleaning it with some WD-40 and a rag. forgot to take a before photo

Now I need a horn and a horn button for the momo steering wheel for safety.


That's it for now, will keep updating as I go. Looking into some fogs and a lip.

 

Sweet work so far. Glad martins car went to another members hands and into good hands. Looking forward to this build

 

No no no. Not project DTP. Don't steal my name.

Gah!

I believe I have the horn button somewhere with the ring.

Also people were upset for leaving dtp stickers on. Fml

 

nice build man
should get rims and wiring the horn sometime to get it to the center of the wheel is brutal just put it by shifter like me lo

but you cant coin dtp. you cant just buy into the group. its a right of passage. lol

 

Sorry , I didn't think you would get mad, I only used the D.T.P because it had the stickers on both front and rear windshields and to tell you the truth I liked it.

I'll take the stickers off right away.

 

I changed the thread title and just finished taking off the DTP stickers. Sorry if I upset anyone for leaving them on. Its off now.

 

bro, where do you get the idea that I was trying to buy into the group, I didn't even know it was a group until a member came to buy rotors off me and told me he recognized the car (He took a pic of it too). That's when I found out. I left the stickers on cause I thought it looked unique.

 

Just noticed I'm not able to change the thread title name completely, it still shows as the original title.

Delete the thread

(I'll make a new one later)

 

Ill change the title.

Temp change, if you want it to be named something else. Write what you want it to be named, and ill change it

 

That's fine, thanks

 

That works.

And let me guess, it was Emil that came to pick the rotors up with a white eg hatch? Lol

 

hehehe.... rotors fit great on my eg btw.. thanx!

 

lol im just kidding around man. just a joke didnt mean to offend you.

 

Marlo, you got into dtp by performing a sbj lol. So don't judge :P

 

picked this up today

 

skunk2 **** installed. I put the bolt on the wrong way, late night install, I'll fix it tomorrow. Here are some pics







(I know carpet is dirty)

 

I've used many different ***** over years, stock was my fav. I actually got that one from "PurpleStuff".

It brings down the shifter height or atleast the feel for it.

 

Woot for skunk2 shift ****. It's a great feel.

 

so I reinstalled the **** the right way, feels nice.



Went to the scrap yard to help a friend out for parts for his accord. He ended up finding a mugen lip (fake off course) off another eg, pretty good condition. It was $10 so I said why not? The quality of it doesn't seem that good, don't think it will last cause the plastic seems VERY fragile but hey $10 I'm happy.





Installation was a breeze.

 

Nice build man, Ya the B20 is a very underestimated motor. Will pull bus lengths on any B16 EG hatch. ----, Martin pulled typie swaps.

Keep it clean my friend

 

HATE this thread, lol atleast hate looking at pictures...miss it

 

Had time to work on my car today, lately been doing alot of house chores especially gardening lol.

Anyway, the civic's hood needed a spray, But I couldn't find the colour match at any of the stores except for Napa Auto Parts. Only problem was still got no job so Im broke ($40 a can). I had previously bought rust check flat black paint (almost full plus a clear coat can) left over from my teg. So what the hell, decided to paint it black.

400 Grit Wet Sanding, a tack cloth, and couple of clean microfiber cloths was used for prep.















I think it turned out better then I expected, I'm happy because you can no longer see the sun faded spots or small rust spot.

BTW you guys notice the drive way is clean. I cleaned up my previously made oil stains and resealed it by myself. Hard work!

 

Nice job on the hood looks pretty good.

Ya I noticed that driveway is super clean. Resealing is a pain in the butt.

 

So I got a set of fog light for my eg.

Opening box.







After a fair amount of experience I learned to keep my screws organized to make life easier...lol



Surprised myself by taking off the bumper in less then 3 minutes.


After cutting and screwing fogs in




Final Results




Really like the look... Would like them more if they worked ...lol

I double checked all my grounds and proper power connections. I guessing it has to be the relay. Could also be the switch ...I'll see if I can fix them tomorrow.

 

Car looks great with those sucks they are not turning on.

And opening that little box and seeing a weedwacker fit in one of those boxes is amazing lol

 

lol, I was too lazy to move the trimmer

thanks Paul, I like them too. It was a debate whether to get the air ducts or fogs. I figured the fogs could help me visually see better especially during foggy weather. I wish they would turn on, Bought the fogs from J-spec in Scarborough, Anybody ever have a problem with his kits?

Im probably going to call him.

 

So after trying to get these fogs to work I found out that the relay or the switch were not the problem. So it had to be either my grounds, which I knew were good grounds or loose connection.

Turns out it was the brown connector, even though I plugged it in tight it wasn't making a solid connection (cheap plastic oem look-a-like).

That's what the brown connector looked like


I broke off the brown connector and just plugged in the metal female spade connector to make a SOLID CONNECTION. So I reconnected everything , cleaned up the wires and turned them on, worked.



I'll take some better pics at night. Hopefully Im happy with the brightness or 3000k HIDS may be on my list.

 

Got some night pics, Wish they were alittle brighter. Probably will upgrade the bulbs.

 

great pics, HIDs should be your next upgrade

 

thanks bro, probably will upgrade my fog light bulbs

 

I would upgrade them with 3000k fogs would look amazing. In the picture it seems as if the left one (as in facing the car) so passenger side lol, seems to be pointing lower then the other can you adjust them?

 

I can't adjust the actual fogs, I think I can adjust the covers. I'll see what I can do, thanks for pointing it out cause I didn't notice.

 

badass progress man. well done on the car so far.

 

thanks man

 

Now stop being a panzy with childish "mods" and throw a blower on it.

 

agreed!!!!

 

Umm. Damn. I missd the build section again.
