n00b w/ a EK Hatch

[noeljay]

i just traded my 95 integra LS with a wrecked front end for a 96 EK Hatch D16z6 w/ a 99 front end.Funny story i drove it and it drove fine, but when i drove it an hour later after we traded, a motor mount broke but no biggy, replacing that this weekend. I plan to maybe do a swap this summer, im thinking ls vtec,gsr,or H22 swap. when ever i get the money and stumble upon a deal first.

heres my old teg.

pretty clean, good luck on the build. it would be a good idea to get motor mount inserts.

looks like a good car to start from, what happened to the teg, crashed straight into a pole?

 

[enycesam]

Dang, sorry to hear about your teg. Good luck with the new hatch though. Looks like you got a clean slate to work off of.

 

[DarkCreep]

HX's for the win!

 

[noeljay]

yep hit a pole, wats everyone think on wat motor and tranny combo i should go with? and i dont really know the price ranges on motors but im on a budget but will save for the right swap.

wouldn't suprise me if the old owner made an extra key and is waiting for you to put some s**t on it so he can can steal it back

s**t, has that actually happened?

 

[noeljay]

to actully think about it that could be half the reason why most cars are stolen, im pretty sure ill put an alarm on it soon, but that doesnt help 100% but itl do.

oh and i thinkim going to go with ls vtec, but i heard if its not done right its not so reliable? hmm well hopefully it all goes well this summer.

and i was thinking wats better, LS block with b18c head or b16 vtec head?wats the cheapest way and wat combo puts out the most? im pretty new to all this so im sure you guys can guide me through.

it has potential.

Looks clean i personlly like that it has a 99-00 front end on it. The fog light you can put on the 99-00 front end look alot nicer.

 

[cerasoli1188]

nice hatch wanna see what you end up puttin in it

 

[QzFiNeST107]

damn that front end looks like a V lol
