My photobucket account like changed or some shit and I found all these old assed pictures of my EG hatch. Thought I’d make a project thread to teach you faggots how OGs did shit.
Bought this car off ebay for like $2000 way back when. Had no interior no hood and a corner light from 4 door lol.
I stared off with this garbage:
and it looked like this
tl;dumpy civic;dr
Then i kept going with some other shit
In like 03 I got into maybe shaving the engine bay
but thats as far as that went cause I smoked a lot of weed at the time and the rest was too much work
anyone remember this shit
Then I started dating a dumb cunt who made me hate everything in my life but my car and spent long hours doing crazy things to it and living paycheck to paycheck to buy parts
replaced
made some new friends
got more into super clean looks and started my own body shop in my den
wheel fitment in 2004 yeah. I even had rolled and pulled fenders
designed and built my own adjustable sway bar endlinks with OEM CTR parts and some other things so I could fit a CTR rear sway bar on the car
Cleaned up the interior
spiffed up the engine bay before
after
Then started this project
but then there was this like every single day and I met another cunt that would ruin 2 years of my life
never finished the ITBs. Sold the car looking like this for $4000 to a kids who was scared of it, actually wore skinny jeans and whose Girlfriends wanted to stay and party with my friends and it all in 06
The End.
I got to the ITBS and was like ‘yay!’ and then I was sad. Sucks.
I was only $95 into the ITBs too.
was to the point I have never removed an intake manifold before and was a little scared the car wouldn’t run at all without some sort of management. Everything else I had fabbed and ready
I hear ya- got frustrated with the management stuff. Had everything, just got frustrated with trying to learn how to make it work (well). Either way, still good to have got a chance to play around with the stuff though.
remember this whip from back when. liked it then, still like it now lol.
maybe i should make a build thread for the mr2…ehh fuck that lol.
That is sweet. Got a number of JdmYo parts too. Arc intake is ba.
+1
Came out pretty clean in the end, Ron. Did you ever go to any shows with it back then? I’m trying to remember if I saw it or not.
You were like the Justink of 2001
yeah I had gone to a bunch, The second great escape show and a few at the saratoga auto museum.
Sigh. The good old days.
JDM Death Squad for Life!
You have any other old pics Ron? I have seemed to have lost all my old files.
Nothing older than these unfortunately
I think I’m gonna go pull the old shop hard drives and see what I can recover off them. This really brings up some memories for me.
Bad ass car man, now all these Junkers are “stanced” out with zip ties and I guess that’s cool
that’s because it is cool, thank you
Do I need to post some old pics in here???
If you have them post them. Pics of the yellow car?
