My First RT
sofast
New Wagonist
Im a huge Honda fan mostly of the EF family. I have built many CRXs', hatches, and 4 doors. I am getting bored of the same ol thing so I went on a search for a Wagon. I found this Gem of an RT in Desmoines Iowa for $600. It had a failed mini me swap with wiring cobbled everywhere, the body was rusty, and found that the failed mini me had metel shavings in the oil pan. Luckily we have D series engines lined up waiting to drop into cars. The Jdm D15b Vtec was the obvious choice. Low miles and good for boost. Next weekend I will be boosting it on 11 lbs running a GT28r Garrett. Im working from the inside out so the body will be the last thing to finish up.
Cut the rust holes out and used a pneumatic flange tool for the new panels
I used 88-91 hatch panels and they fit pretty nice
Lowered on Function Form Type 1
A little modify on the egay header
Used a Pace Setter catback from my CRX and made it work
90 GS Integra seats. Wanted to keep the auto seat belts
I like how its coming along. another 6 months and hope to have it painted and complete.

Im gonna have to dent the headlight basket in to make room for the ram horn
The boot is ugly but had to use it . This piping was from an EK so I had what i had
the way from the turbo to the intercooler is defenetly too long! cut a bit from the front away and turn the intake side from your turbo and you have a shorter way! also the rubber clamped links are shit, for the complete way from turbo to intake manifold it is not necessary to have more than two silicon links when you do it correkt!
