my EG hatch, a work in progress

By 5ive_on_the_floor
- Wed Jul 18, 2007 3:26 am #14920 Disclaimer: i only have 3 JDM parts slapped on my ride. All other parts are either sourced locally or cribbed from some of my friends :lol: hahaha forgive my ricey car :P

1. engine
2. evaporator
3. muffler :roll: :lol:

Bought her back in 2002, traded my old car for her plus cash. She caught my eye whilst sitting in a secluded spot in a used carpark.

She's an ongoing project, needs a fresh coat of paint and some touch-ups here and there...but still, i'm proud of her. The other thing i'm proud of is that everything that's slapped on the car, i paid for myself. And that, in my book, makes me proud. ^_^

She aint no superfast street demon or blingin' show queen...

She's just my car.

And that, for me, is enough. ^_^

Well, here she is. :)


Shell BAS, before one of our HCP GEBs.

the Batcave, after a night of drunken debauchery :lol:

And here she is enjoying a workout at Subic International Raceway.

- Wed Jul 18, 2007 3:28 am #14923 And,as most hatchback owners are wont to do, my latest project (which, i may add, has been delayed for 2 years due to lack of funding)...the heart transplant. I just wanted a little oomph to overtake the aggressive local drivers and seeing that the B-series engines were out of my price range, i opted for the D-series.

Farewell, old friend. You have served me well. :(

Hello. Where have you been? I've been waiting for you for 2 years. :wub:

Image

(asking why the valve cover is amber/orange? beats me...as long as it runs, i guess . ^_^ )

Image

Look at the face of that happy SOB. :P

Image


Future upgrade? Lemme just wait for that winning lotto ticket. ;)

For now, ima gonna let my wallet rest.

Thanks for looking, peeps.

Image


reppin the T-EG. ;)

Image
good thing there were no cops on a Sunday on the expressway, i could've been cited for running with an open funnel ram :bag:

Image
...too late for me to realize that the 2 EKs and the EG sedan were all rocking FI setups, (if i'm not mistaken) :WTF: nonetheless, its all good ^_^

not so sure about that bro :? i'll ask around and get back to you on that :) . the ones that are prevalent here are the Rota GT3s (the ones with fewer spokes)What one of the other guys from our club did is he bought the Track-Rs in white then had a sticker made, the "Sprint Hart-for-competition-use-only" then affixed it to his rims. :)
