Well I'm finally getting back to working on the hatchback. I managed to pick up a 90 Integra with a b18a1 from work for $600, I just had to make an axle for it and fix the ground on the motor and drove it home. Well its got no title, so its parts only. Currently I have the front of the hatch sitting on stands, and nothing on the from end other than suspension parts. I just painted the whole engine bay. I'm planning on getting the B series mounts off ebay to put the B18 in it and getting an Unorthodox Single Pulley conversion for it so I won't have to dent in the frame rail for something I'm not gonna use. I'm also gonna be swapping out the brake booster, master cylinder and proportating valve along with the rear discs. I still gotta pull everything out from inside the car and I plan on painting it black as well. Once I get it going again Ill end up painting the whole car black and call it done......as far as the body goes, engine will probably be a different story;)

Ill try and keep updating the pictures. Next Ive gotta go clean out all the crap that is sitting inside of it, its been more of a storage than anything for the past year and a half. The only thing still bolted on the interior is the dash, everything else I can just chuck out of the car, mask up the windows and dash and start painting. I'm only planning on putting back the front seats and door panels, I'm thinking of making like a truck bed for the rear part of it, just smooth it all out, I need something to haul around tools and parts for the race car, and if you ever saw the car before it went down, you know I'm not a fan of leaving the back seat in, too many people wanting me to be a taxi.

Yea, she has been through hell, working on bringing back out of it with a B series, so I'm hoping that will make up for it.
I don't have those wheels anymore, but I do have a set of HX wheels thats going on her, just gotta go mount some tires on them.
