#147074 hey guys here is my hatch, its pretty much bone stock, and will be getting stripped down over the winter so i can build it. here are some pics.

mods so far, jdm vision amber corners, coupe ex front seats, amber led light gauges, autometer mini tach( also lights up amber. and i replaced the missing headlight lol.

the plan is to have a clean light weight exterior, with carbon fiber hood, fenders, and hatch. all but the hood will be painted to match the car. i'm thinking of going with a set of tein complete coilovers with the pillow ball mount, some type of light weight wheel in a black color, doing a rear disc swap, maybe replacing the suspension arms, or paint them and add new bushings. swap out cx motor for either a b16/ or jdm sohc. and then i/h/e and maybe a few other things. all comments welcome.

the progress will be slow, but it will get there, the last owner painted it yellow it was milano red, im thinking of changing the color back to red or maybe black or silver.

#147085 That's how it is these days. my project is gonna be very slow. The red/silver would look good with the carbon fiber hood. :)

oh no doubt but i would go with an oem silver, probably a ek si color, i will get it all resprayed at once it will be more even that way, if i stay yellow it will be Phoenix yellow, or milano red, or midnighthawk black pearl.
