Finally decided what to do with this ebay bargain, Vtec y0! I plan on doing exactly what Indio has done, UK Style, i plan to start this around Early Febuary 08', building it through to May, Doing the engine, bodywork etc, then when i turn 18, and marks a year of no claims and Points (Fingers Crossed!) Then the DX will come off the road, Swap the wheels and braces onto the GL, Rear lights etc. have the bodywork fixed on the DX, few engine mods (D15b head etc..) Then sell and rid of the DX
Will Begin my sourcing a D16Z6 Block, Few on ebay around the £100-£150 mark, Just the for the main swap, anyways so thats the main thing i need, Id also like ro begin sourcing a lightweight flywheel, 4-1 headers, GXR 600 Carbs, Stage 2 Cam. Im aiming for around 120bhp~ mark, will this be achievable?
Bodywork wise, i plan to strip it down to the shell, fix the rust, weld the sills, then a full Respray, inside and out, Undicided what colour, was thinking B-47M Superior Blue
will then strip the paint off the bumpers, back to the black plastic in all its glory, not into this colour coded bumper business. Interior wise will be stripped out to the shell, then carpeted, so its lightweight, but doesnt look "messy" than having metal showing, Followed by 2 Buckets in the front, and im gunna hopefully fabricate a half cage (Full cage Pending on how well it goes).
im hoping to remove the power steering, replaced by a manual rack, whilst keeping the heaters, its a daily driver dont forget, keeping the stereo intact also.
Anyways, Watch this space!
