    Updates Updates Updates

    So i was doing some cleaning and found a b16 y1 cable transmission from a previous build that has been sitting around for like 2 years in my closet. Decided I'd post that up on the forum and get rid of it. After being bluffed a bunch of times I talked to a guy who didn't have an cash but he happened to have something that was worth trading for. So he drove down i cracked open the transmission for him to inspect and he drove off with the transmission...

    Bye Bye


    Say hello to BWR LCA and Sub Frame Brace. Yes they are pink sadly. I wanted purple but beggars can't be choosers. Really dirty when I got them

    Before Cleaning







    Took some brake cleaner I had laying around and Boom Shiny





    So I'm happy with how they look, gotta grab a lower pink tie bar so i have a complete set. I also bought a new vehicle. Won't show any updates on that until i start doing crazy things with it. But till then some more shots of the eg hatch.

    You know just getting some gas

          Just another quick update due to circumstance. Just so happened a guys car caught on fire and was in need of cash so those purple xxrs + $200 dollars = MORE SHIT WHEEEELS

          staggered front 15x8 and 15x10 diamonds wrapped in brand new 195/50. I plan on buying new 165/50 tires for the fronts so they will have stretch as well. But that wont be for a while now for some pics!

          The first time i saw them in the guys truck


          Brand new tires

              Bad luck 2 days straight in a row

              yeah so i've had just horrible luck recently and i don't know why. Ive had below 0 weather, snow, and even more snow which wouldn't be a problem but it just makes me un productive. I haven't been able to mess with the crx (JUST A MESS), still having issues with the sedan (Gotta bleed the clutch fluid gots air in the system), and then my eg hatch had its run of issues.

              I was driving someone to school, just about a mile and a half drive. I took my eg hatch THE DAILY and boom when i got to her school my tire debeaded.

              To make matters worse when it takes 2 blocks of wood to jack up your car with a fully inflated tire, it took me 5 pieces of wood to jack it up in its current state. My twin just so happened snapped a pic



              So i threw on a steelie on it and got it home. I was so lucky that I bought that other mystery vehicle. So the tire was trashed, I was able to grab a used tire for $30 from a spanish shop up the street but they couldn't mount the tire. Guys tried for 30 mins with no success.

              I went to another shop and they guy told me it was impossible and that i wouldnt want that size tire on that size rim (its only a 175/55 on a 9). I was like, guy i got 3 more already mounted a home and had them for 1 year no issue. Welp i then tried mounting them at home with some starting fluid and fire. No success at all. I'll get it mounted somehow. here a pic for you ppl



              So i woke up this morning and guess what, for some strange reason the other front tire debeaded on me ;,( Life is just kicking me in the balls right now

              Luckily this tire wasn't driven on so it wasn't damaged. So I in the cold and snow just ****** life as a pissed off guy did this

              "Girls cant help but to love guys with DIAMONDS"

              So to add to my long list of long list of things to do it goes at follows

              1. Figure out the issue with the crx coolant system
              2. Fix the damn crx and make it drive-able
              3. Bleed the clutch system on the sedan and make it drive-able (Won't go into gear atm)
              4. pull the rear quarters on the eg hatch (Got rubbing issues)
              5. Fix the eg hatch exhaust (Scraping more then usually, hanger probably came loose)
              6. install eg hatch bwr rear LCA and Subframe brace
              7. Introduce the new vehicle when everything on the list is fixed =]

                Hello, my friends. Baltimore received a fuck ton of snow today so no progress could be made to any of the builds. On another note my twin was nice enough to drive me around today so I could get provisions(Food and Arizona half and half because all my vehicles were unable to drive in this weather) and we ended up having a little adventure and went snow wheeling. I respect all builds and love his truck! 89 s10 4x4 5.5 lift with 33 all terrain tires. Hopefully this snow is gone soon so more progress can be made.







                And on a side note here is a pic of my instagram so you cool people can follow me and in turn i'll follow back because id love to see what projects and builds you guys are up too

                  More stuff to add

                  Hey guys between snow, school and work i dont have much time but i somehow manage to get stuff done. So i rolled the eg hatchs quarters to fit those 15x10s.

                  WHAT YOUR ABOUT TO SEE MAY BE GRAPHIC. MOST WONT LIKE WHAT THEY SEE

                  so i took Mr. hammer and Ms. baseball bat



                  Jacked up the rear



                  Before







                  Got the car on the ground and literally just drove back and forth till I got this



                  Dont mind the small amount of rust on the quarters





                  Say hi to my twins hatch :,(



                  Finally bought a cargo cover for $30!



                  Decided to make some side skirts after the ek ones i bought didnt really line up



                  Went to lowes and got these things. what ever they are



                  bolted them up



                  Cant wait to put them on



                  all i got.

                    You got a cargo cover for 30 dollars? Damn EG cargo covers are cheap. Ive been looking for one for my EK and they're all around 100 or more dollars.

                    Also what are those thing you put on your sideskirts?

                          MD got snow snow and more snow

                          Maryland for the past 2 weeks has just been bombarded with snow so it makes it hard for me to make progress. Any ways i liked how the side skirts on the hatch went so i decided to make another set for the sedan

                          So i went to home depo


                          bought 2 for $4.98 a piece


                          Trimmed and bolted them up





                          now the sedan looks a bit better


                          Also got a package in the mail :3



                          From blackworks? Oh what could it possibly be



                          Yaaaayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayay! got my lower tie bar! just missing the extended studs in order to bolt everything into the hatch! thats all for now

                                This really is the most clusterfuck of a build. like previously said,Sell all the ugly jdm cheap wheels. the diamonds are my favorite. glad you took the wood grain off. looks like an actual car now.
