    Re: Elpuma's 88 hatch

    Just a lil up date of how my spring break went. This is how it started off on the first day.


    For a long time i've been wanting to do the front pitch fork mod. Finally got around to doing it.






    Car ended up being a bit more even.


    Then i made a cover for my ecu out of plexi glass

    Re: Elpuma's 88 hatch

    They have this cute lil car in the dealer that inspired me for next project i did






    I liked the door cuz it was so simple


    Here was my door after i had gutted the car and covered it back up with felt


    So i took the door off and started to work on it to run the power window switches else were and to get rid of the seat belts.






    Where i ended up running the switches

    Re: Elpuma's 88 hatch

    Had to grind down the bolts that held the seat belts to the door.


    After i was done i just covered them back up with felt




    My welder putting in a harness bar


    Went to the JY but i couldn't find any good black prelude seats


    I did find these tan/baige seats that were pretty good


    So for the mean time this is how my seats look

    Sorry but I'm not feeling the door panels! The harness bar seem like a good addition but it would have been better if it would be a bolt on! Also, it looks like you need a new steering wheel! lol

    How can you bolt on a harness bar in a hatch? I didn't see any bolt on places.

    Same with a coupe. You either have to weld some bolts/nuts to the body or you could try making a bar that bolts into the rear seat holes.

    Re: Elpuma's 88 hatch

    Small update. I didn't like the blue headers cuz they didn't match the engine bay. They were Jet-Hot coated from the person i bought them like 4 years ago. I had painted them with the aluminum high temp paint but that stuff flaked off. So i bought some titanium header wrap. Also got my 3geez.com sticker in there. Oh and a black oil reservoir sock with the honda racing logo on it for the brake reservoir.

    Re: Elpuma's 88 hatch

    Hey what happened to the side of your car?
    The side of the car got fucked up like 2 years ago when i was coming out of a small parking garage. Some blonde girl in a big ass truck took a shallow turn when i was coming around the corner and we almost hit head on. I missed her by a bit but i ended up hitting the side of the car with the wall cuz i took a sharper turn.

    Coming up here to OSU has reall fucked up my car. One time i came up to my car and noticed my side mirror was dangling. Someone must of hit it with their car. Also got rear ended one time at a stop light. Nothing big, just damaged the paint. And every winter they lay gravel on the mountain passes and when i'm going home for vacation, the front of my car gets bombarded by the gravel coming off other cars.

    I do plan to re paint it in the future. Like once I graduate and have another DD.

    Re: Elpuma's 88 hatch

    Just a lil update. Went to a car meet like two weeks ago. Entered my car in the show but didn't win anything. Besides my car and 1gen CRX there were no other pre 90's cars. Lots of ppl would walk by and i hear them say "oh look at this old school integra" lol. Or what kind of car is this and they'd look around and find out its an accord be like WTF. They knew it was a honda cuz of the valve cover. Anyways here's a vid a guy made from the meet. There was like 200 cars and i got a spot in his vid so i thought it was pretty cool.

    My car shows up 50 sec into the vid
