This is all quoted from my original Build thread here: http://www.importatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=217976&page=1&pp=20
Well it has been about 2 years now until I have worked on my projects, and with the boost of motivation I have these days mainly from getting back out into the scene, I am eager to finish this one as soon as possible! I do not have the excuse of school and work getting in the way, I am finally only working!
Cliff Notes of Story:
I got this Teal EG as a daily and hydroplaned on the interstate into the middle median! My good friend Josh gave me his coupe that was stolen and stripped completely. For me this is perfect as I had the Teal EG full of useful parts. This project has been worked on and left alone for about 2 years now. I am finally out of college and have free time and the motivation to finish this project!
I will update the pictures when I get home, I do not have all my pictures on my laptop.
Well, got to work on it again. fixed the fuel leak for now with some rubber fuel host and 2 clamps. (cheap)
Got the engine running friday night! The fans did not cut on so I didn't let it run long. I have to go back and check the sensor and maybe the wiring. More to come.
I got a donor eg and stripped the engine/suspension and integra front brakes onto the coupe.
Heres the pics:
Well got to work on it some Sunday...
I installed the exhaust and new horn.
I also checked the radiator fan out. I used the paperclip trick and the fan does work. I tested the engine again to see if the fan would come on and it didn't when the two hoses got to the same temperature. I am thinking about replacing the sensor and thermostat first off... I should get these this week..
Pictures:
Forgot to post this pic! Slammed out ride here:
I would so be done by now if the stupid alarm wasn't holding me back. I have some type of wiring issue. If I engage the alarm, after 20ish seconds the alarm goes off every time.
I finally got some other work done. Almost done with the wire tuck and interior:
Some Parts:
vtec wiring:
a/c parts reference

So I backtracked?! so what! haha. I took everything back out to put a new main harness in for power windows/door locks. Here are the pics putting the new stuff back in for a 2nd time.
