#273252 This is gonna be my thread to show everyone the progress of my hatch. I got my hatch winter of my junior year in high school and it had a few mods, B16a motor swap, Type R trans, intake, exhaust, itr intake mani and exhaust mani, skunk2 stage 1 cams, Dropzone struts with ground control sleves, Front strut tower bar, B pillar bar, and C pillar bar. It also had the jdm kph cluster. The only exterior mods besides suspension were amber corners and side markers and 50/50 tails. SO i had a pretty good start. Heres some pics of when i got it!

#273292 i stored the car over winter my senior year and saved up and bought some new parts. pwjdm whale penis intake, Blox LCAs, jdm itr rear sway bar, spoon shift knob and itr red stitched shift boot, hondata intake manifold gasket and a different muffler (thrush that i cut open and put a pipe through so i had a toned exhaust that ooked like it had a regular muffler)

Around May 2011 my clutch went out (a spring broke inside the disc)
So with the hep of friends i pulled the motor and decided to do a minor tuck and shave. Aong with a new clutch.
