Fourth Time's the Charm - Another Air Hatch

[Dremetos]

Can't wait to see this boy come out in spring. You doing big things homie. What welder did you guys end up getting?

Hobart 190, shit bangs out drop forks like nothing. Will do great for the RHD conversion this spring.

Those strut towers are Jank AF, but I love it!!! Full send.

Honestly dude, I've nailed some GNARLY potholes on my daily city commute to school and these things are solid as fuck. Zero issues to report, I trust them as much as any other part of this car.

When is it going to shoot flames out the exhaust?

Getting de-catted this spring. Stupid d16y7 headers have the cat built into the manifold.

so my shit has needed an alignment yesterday for the past month. It was so awful up front I'd go over painted crosswalks and my car would scream because of how bad the toe out condition was. I figured these two tires up front would last until snowfall. I was wrong. Did a quick little check on school break today. I shit bricks. Extra 165's got tossed on and i'm banging an eye-lignment out tomorrow lmao

Not much to report other than pictures. Been driving the shit out of it. Big plans come spring, just saving at the moment. Hope these hold whoever is actually interested over. Something killed the quality of these, oh well.

Its just lip low

[Dremetos]

Bumper and lip are likely going in the trash can when the car comes out in the spring.

A buddy and I just dished out on a welder and I have a contact down in Jersey for RHD front clips for EK's for quite cheap (I think around 600 bucks done and done) so I very well may be going RHD this spring.

Here are some more random shots. All passengers side because my drivers axle notch isn't big enough and it holds it up a little bit which makes me sad.

Fucking dumped!!! Loving it. First 6th gen I've seen that low. You really need to change that Home Depot lip though. lol

[Dremetos]

Had a buddy watching me take pictures today, then my camera died. No tripod either, so they are poo. Front fitment is much better after the tower cut. 2016 I will be shaving my front subframe down flush to the LCA pivot points and doing drop spindles as previously mentioned. I need that perfect front fitment.

[Dremetos]

well your new shock tower looks a little sketchy, to say the least lol. Why not weld these plates at least? I honestly think you will bend them out of shape real quick. Low got real though. Props.

They're being welded up. Big plans to do drop spindles and grind the front subframe down to the LCA pivot points so it tucks the 165s completely, and lays pan out clean.

I ragged on the car hard for like 40 miles so far with zero tower issues btw.

Hey awesome! Did you have to use modified spindles to get the frame to touch ground? Or were you able to hack the towers up enough to get that to happen without them?

Oh and how about a picture of the whole car? How can you tease with shots of the A arm mounting points touching ground, but not a shot of the whole car?

[Dremetos]

Been buying and selling quite a few shells recently. Stripped a couple, sold a hatch to a buddy after removing parts etc. Ended up acquiring brand new Blackworks Racing upper camber plates in the packaging with one of the cars. Needless to say I was pumped. Getting into the "buy shell, trailer home, take good parts, part out / scrap, start over" game is getting real.

The suspension on these 6th gen civics dont allow you to lay frame/pan.

Instead of doing bath salts this weekend I did something pretty similar.

Yeah, I went to go bolt down my negative terminal ground and went.... oh yeah, the threaded hole... Oops.

need updated pics after the extra tower cut

[Earl]

Any plans to refine the rear aches and match the bumper up with them? Maybe a legitimate paint job?
