UPDATE PAGE 2
UPDATE PAGE 3
I picked up a shell a few days ago. I'm still waiting on a swap, hopefully it won't take too long to get. The car has the optional sideskirts, sir front end, rsx seats and a jdm type r cluster. Here's my progress so far. I will update as I do more.
This is how I got it:
Started buffing the hood out, and buffed and painted the passenger headlight:

For some reason I just realized that the JDM front is indeed the way to go. What are your plans for the motor?
Front end looks clean from the pics. That is one helluva nice starting point you've got yourself there.
My plans are to throw an LS in it for now. I'll get a couple of interior pics up here in a little while.
Nice to see you back in a teg. Always loved that white jdm front one you used to have.
BUILT NOT BOUGHT .........
This one's gonna be better.Originally Posted by Genji-Sama

Nice shell gl with the project
Finished the other headlight, the motor should be here tomorrow. Then I can start the swap. I'm really itching to get the car on the road. It's not gonna be a perfect show car, but I will be proud of it.
Bys lip bro and slammed lol I got some og San that will look good on that car gl with very thing
Got my motor last night.... Cleaned it a little bit and took all the old shit off.
In my garage.
Got it in the car today all by my lonesome......
Yes I know I'm missing a mount... I need the correct bracket to put it on...
Good work man! Glad to see you doing it yourself too. Much respect.
working on your own is the way to go! good shit i see in here
stock ls? nothing special. You got alot of work to do
Butt hurt much?
haha im jk man clean teg thoe absolutly love the jdm front gl with it
Butt hurt much?
Just had to splice the injector harness off of my old harness into my new one... Wiring is a bitch...
Still gotta wire in a couple of plugs, but it won't be that bad.
butt connectors suck, they always break apart.. even the really good ones; solder & heatshrink FTWJust had to splice the injector harness off of my old harness into my new one... Wiring is a bitch...

Yeah, I know. But if they eventually break they'll be easy to get to anyway. I'm just trying to get this shit on the road for now.
Lookin good man. Makes me miss my old teg
wow! Did not expect to see such a clean shell!
Good build man, and major reps for doin the dirty work yourself - ppl talk big when they haven't done their own grunt work. Feels sooo much better to see what your own hands have done lol, g/l with build!
UPDATE
Finally got the car running and road worthy. I'm waiting on my exhaust to get here and then I should be good to go on daily driving it. I've made a few test spins to QT and stuff like that and everything seems fine.
I painted my VC yesterday because it looked like garbage when I got it.
Before:
After:
I also picked up a set of all red tail lights for cheap. Went ahead and threw those on:
Traded the RSX seats for Integra seats and cash. I hated those damn RSX seats. Too big and IMO uncomfortable.
And now just a couple shots of the car:
Still gotta buff the car out real good. If my exhaust gets here before Import Alliance I'll be heading over there and finishing the paint probably Friday.
I also need sleeves for the springs on this car. Dude I bought it from just left it on coilovers with no sleeves at all. That's why it's retarded slammed. So if anyone has sleeves LMK I need them bad.
yes sir,, B E Autiful..nice build,,,more pics!!! i cant wait to get back to the states so i can sell my 94 gsr and start build my 01 gsr
Damn the front of your engine is naked lol. You going to throw ps and ac on later or just ride out?
Ride out.
