hey whats up guys im new here im from pa im 18 and heres the progress so far on my hatch ,its been only 4 months since i bought it,check it out!!

new pics!!with my friends 17"rims ,i know they look a little big but i think is because it has the skirts black but if i paint the whole hatch the same blue it has right now and all the black pieces the same color it will look sick,comments will be apreciated(sorry for the not so good pics)












this rims are just to see how it looks on 17"


here is the first day i got it


took the engine apart for repairs






engine repaired and ready to go!,o and a nice drop!!






after i got it registered and cleaned









my plans:25%tints all around,exhaust system,minimi swap,maybe a set of 17"(im more for the looks than speed)and a nice paint job ,and many few thing more.just wanted to introduce myself,comments are welcome.

nice....you gonna go for a b18 swap or just turbo the d16?

just be careful, eg's are becoming a really popular car to steal.

i would also blurr out your plates in your pics.

chuko

thanks for the comments,i think ill stick with the stock engine for now and just put a vtec head and maybe later a turbo kit but not sure,but if i find a nice and cheap b18 swap ill probably buy it.

nice drop, you should get 16s for your ride, 17s will look way to big and will look like a monster truck

Yeah, I agree. One of the members on here had a 4th gen hatch and a 7th gen coupe, and he put the 15" steelies (that look tiny on a 7th gen) with hubcaps from the 7th gen on the 4th gen, and they looked huge. If you're going for looks, you might want to make sure they don't look ridiculous.

Other than the roof, the body looks to be in really good shape given it's age. What happened to Honda with shorting us on space in the engine bay. They used to have so much more room.

they took out engine space to add more interior space. sit in a eg and then sit in a 7th gen. Its like a go kart to a wagon in terms of interior space.

fixed. try it now. for some reason when you hyperlink it adds a civicforums.com/forum/
in front of it so it was doing it twice.

looks good......but i think you should take off ur hubcaps n jsut run steelies...

Unevolved

Nah, I disagree. Steelies on an older hatch are just a cliche on wheels.

chuko
