That was as of about a week ago. Since then we have painted the whole interior black, mounted in a racing seat with 4-point harness, Hooked up like 8-10 gauges in a plexiglass panel, hooked up a power/kill switch with push button start. He has also ordered a rollcage and fuel cell.
List of mods:
JDM D15B VTEC motor swap
Rebuilt motor with performance internals (he had it rev over 10,000RPMS plenty of times and 110+MPH in 3rd gear)
Intake
DC Header
Catback exhaust
Upgraded computer (not sure what kind)
SAFC VTEC controller
Custom fuel rail, upgraded injectors and pump
(Im sure theres other performance stuff im forgetting)
Custom gauge panel
racing tach
Short shifter
Tenzo wheel
C/F hood
Angel eye headlights
Clear corners
C/F taillights
Tint
Custom blue paint job
Honda fat-five rims
Suspension from a 99 civic
I will try to get some updated pics in the next couple days. He wants to do a turbo, tighted up the suspension a little, replace the glass with lexan. The front bumper is black at the top because he hit a deer doing 60MPH and had to fiberglass it all back togeather and primer it. Im not sure on specifics like the brand names on all the parts and suspension or what type of internals the motor has and the computer(its chipped also). If you have any specific questions that i cant answer ill ask him and get back to you. It should be a fun project to work on.

if hes replacing the glass with lexan he should probably lose the batmobile bodykit too...

What kind of racing will you be doing with the car? drag? auto x? solo1?

I would definately loose the bodykit, and I hope you plan on turboing the d series motor, because thats a lot of money to spend on a car and still stick with a d-series, which can't make that much power NA.

Hes going to be drag racing it. Yea, it is going to get turboed. The bodykit is probably going to stay on for the time being because hes trying to put as much money as he can towards performance and if he takes the kit off it needs to be repainted and the skirts are bonded to the car so that will take a little work to get off.

looks fairly nice. my buddy just bought an '88 civic hatch with the 1.6 ZC dual cam engine swapped in. runs pretty quickly. nice and light weight to begin with, i see you're taking full advantage of that.
