Thats because it IS that car he traded a Champ White EG hatch for. haha. I bought it off the guy that traded him..


And as for the Shocks/Struts: they are just Neuspeed lowering springs. Going to Function Full Coilovers! w00t!

What lip kit is that? it looks kind of like an aero, but not at the same time. I like it especially with that color. and do you ever have any issues with that exhaust? it looks like its pretty damn close to the ground. it looks like any little bump and it'd scrape pretty hard.

The lip is a "type b" lip.

And yes the exhaust scrapes. Right now i KNOW i have a hole in my header or exhaust because i can hear it. But its all going to change when it gets to be spring. K20 FTW!

Don't rush a swap or anything for that matter. It may lead to carelessness. Slow and steady.

I have decided that im not going to sell my car.
Instead im going to build this and then in the spring buy a CRX as well and do a total rebuild/restoration (and then some) on it.
Hopefully i will be getting a plant job that will allow me to do all this to the EM2 before IA08!
Wish me luck, ill need it!
