Pics of my whips...

[tuned1]

Hi, my names Rick and I am a coupe owner!
I just broke it off with my hatch a few months ago. It was rough but I had to let her go:cry:. She was featured in Honda Tuning Magazine Oct of 2005...




1992 RHD(conversion) 519whp 11.3 @ 135 mph. Built from the ground up.

I am now currently building my coupe that has been sitting out side rusting for the past 4 years. Here are a few pics of my old hatch and my new project coupe.

Here is what I started with...


Here are some pics of putting it back together...






Rear suspension/disc brake swap


Onmi 18K Drag coilovers




Power Slot rotors, Axxis pads, Russel stainless brake lines, ARP extended wheel studs






Diggy welding it up

[tuned1]

Here are some more...

EG jdm city lights, EG jdm corners, EG jdm rear inner/outer tailights, EG sidemarkers/w/Password JDM wiring kit all complements of Password JDM



Password JDM/OEM JDM thin side moldings

Pics from body work and engine/door jam painted.





3am and Im a little stoned from the fumes...



Here are the final paint pics.

that color is awesome on the coupe. so is this going to be a drag-only car? props on all the work going into it though. definitely a build from the ground up. nice work :TU:

[PandaCoupe]

Nice build up man. I love that color :TU:

Good luck with the rest of the build

[JdmRevelations]

Nice build man... what are you going to run in that?.... good luck with the rest of the build.. keep us updated

[angrychicken]

Great pics fo the build! Better than porn!

[G-rat]

[EJ1 Freak]

We have all the same lighting! :TU:

I have to say I love your eg...I don't know how you were able to let her go...but good luck on the coupe...I'm sure she'll be awesome as well!

[boosteddx]

[2doors]

raceline huh? your hatch was dope! i can see your coupe is just as nuts! good job. post up some times when available.:TU: :TU: :TU:

[vandelete]

looks great man! can`t wait to see some more pictures :TU:

[MS. EJ8]

very nice rides~ :)

[boostedvic]

Great build-up, it is coming along very nicely, I cant wait to see it when its done!!!

[Dina]

Yeah I remember this build from jdmc also I knew I remembered that Coupe and the color! Props to you is it done yet?

[SLVRBLLT22]

looks real good. i love the color and nice work on the cage. looks like it's gonna be feature worthy, just like the hatch.

[tuned1]

Yeah I remember this build from jdmc also I knew I remembered that Coupe and the color! Props to you is it done yet?

haha. I wish. I am taking my time with it. It takes lots of money and time. Two things that I dont have alot of to give up right now. Just moved into a house and blah blah blah.lol. It will be ready by the end of this season and at the latest the begining of next. I am choosing all the right parts and only the parts I need. I learned alot from my last build in my hatch. I will make it so that every part to have a purpose. I dislike when I see a bunch of bullshit under the hood that is not needed. Wate of money, takes up space, and takes away from creativity.
Ill post up a mod list when I get more time. Thanks for all your comments guys and girl, they keep me motivated :rockon:

Yes it does. I had to cut out the bottom of the fog light mounting brackets. On the hot side I have 2 1/2" piping and the cold side is 3" piping. So smaller sized piping may be easier.

very clean I love that color hatch looked even better!
