Vorhizzle's 1993 Hatch

Here is the car how I got it.

It looked pretty straight when I bought it but the more I looked at it the more I decided it needed body work and paint. So I took it to a local shop and they treated me pretty good.

I bought a carbon fiber hood that had already been cleared and used.. the threw an idea out there about some black stripes to follow the bodylines of the car and I told them to give it a shot.

Here is a few shots of the finished product.

Also did some fitment tests on my JDM Integra Type r Hubs and Spindles with my USDM rims.. I'd say they fit..

I need to take more pics of the parts I've got I forgot to today but the car will be receiving quite a bit of work over the next few weeks and hopefully she will be on the street in no time.

It's also currently sitting on AMR engineering coilovers.. Great Product I love them.

    Nothing huge but undercoated fender wells also

    Nice!!! I guess thats all the Brake lines there with the tape? Great idea doing the undercoating too.
  • VorhizzleVorhizzle Wagonist
    Brake lines, fuel line and heater hoses, next part of the build is putting the spindles on and running the brake lines a bit lower in the car not baller enough to do a brake line tuck
  • VorhizzleVorhizzle Wagonist
    Well the car is all put back together and I drove it yesterday man what a blast here is a start up video, open header not revving it on all the way cold it was at 180 degrees before we revved it.

    Nah the header is just raw stainless. Waiting on him to get exhaust piping still.. driving it on open header is less than appealing for my ears
