Sweet base, just what I wanted to do with my short lived EG escapade. Try and keep this one away from woman drivers okay

Haha, check the D in "Post Up Honda Tech's Whore"

Thats potential.

Looking really good Jase, glad you got stuck in straight away.

Hoping your going to gobsmack us all when you decide which engine your going to use. Do you think you will keep the exterior black?

If I didnt have the Euro, I would rock one of these.... In black too.

Let me know when you finish the build if you want to swap this for two Austins

Horny_Devil · 19th July 2008, 07:22 PM

Update:

Today i swapped over the other corner light that i picked up yesterday and adjusted the headlights so they are nice and even, was dark when i finished so no pictures of that
Next thing, seeing as it was raining was to start to swap the wiring over in the dashes i have sitting in the shed. One is from the Red EG and the other is a black dash out of a coupe. I'm going to use the black dash but the coupe was auto and had airbags so i decided i would swap the wiring looms over. that wasn't to bad, I'm just hoping that the plugs all match up to the car loom

Dash ready to go in:

Old dash wiring:
Couple of random pictures:

Center console with gauges in it, and the birds nest of wiring in the back, its actually quiet well done and only requires the sensors and cigarette lighter to be plugged in to work.

and the black door card out of a coupe on the red door which is going onto the car at some stage

Cheers Jarred

well i hope ill gobsmack some people, ill probably gobsmack myself

as i really have no idea what will be going under the hood, i want to sort out the suspension/brakes and exterior/interior first. as for the exterior, i doubt it will stay black but you never know. Colour is another one of those things that i havent decided on, same with what suspsnsion ill be running

SLOTEG · 19th July 2008, 07:43 PM

hey jase looking good man!
just a quick question: what are the red terminal connectors on the back of your guages?

XPLOIT · 19th July 2008, 07:44 PM

Nice, plans always change (re: my build thread

) but im sure you'll make the right choice.

Are you going to keep the peice on your dash that is grey or convert it to black?

Those door cards are bloody nice too!

I love this build already

Just wire crimps I think.

Thanks Marc

the auto gauge gauges don't have plugs on the back of the gauges as ID expect they have threaded bolts which is where your suppose to connect all your wiring, in this case one is ignition power, one is illumination (headlights), and the other is the sender for the gauge. The red bits are just circular spade terminals that we crimped to the end of the wires.

Hope that helps

Ive been doing a lot of reading so i kinda know the direction im heading in for the suspension and brakes but like you said things always change, deals always pop up.

The grey bit doesn't come in any colour but grey which is a real shame as it kinda takes away from the nice grey dash. for now it will just stay grey.

and yea the coupe door cards a a little bit nicer than the hatch ones as they have a built in tweeter hole, this is whats currently on the car:

XPLOIT · 19th July 2008, 08:02 PM

Oh, is the tweeter hole the only difference? Cant say I have seen many eg door cards anyway. Still looks the part.

Would pro painting the dash be an option?

SLOTEG · 19th July 2008, 08:07 PM

cheers jase, i had autoguage ones in my old subaru and they were threaded bolts for the senders etc, was just wondering how you connected yours all up thats all. never seen plug style ones.

+1 vote for a k swap

yea pretty much that is the only differance.

and i dont know what im going to do with the dash at the moment, might consider doing something to it later on down the track but at the moment there are bigger more pressing things to get done

offset · 20th July 2008, 02:49 PM

whats wrong with just working B18C thats already in there and that you've already got?

dazznz · 20th July 2008, 02:57 PM

haha coming from the man himself

and yea it is only money at the end of the day, gotto spend it while your young and dont have kids

Hayce · 20th July 2008, 05:14 PM

An old joke and a kid in joke in one? Man thats brutal!... but true

Horny_Devil · 20th July 2008, 05:17 PM

want ment to be either really just the truth, fact is i want kids just not right now

offset · 20th July 2008, 05:32 PM

haha You have a kid - a nice black EG6

now pimp him out .... I didn't really see too much of a problem with the B18C, and seeing as you've already got it and its in there, would be able to spend money for another engine on it and make it really go

haha but I mean if you're thinking of going for something bit more serious i.e K series, Kseries+boost or something, then I applaud you and support the idea!! Go hard Jase!

Horny_Devil · 20th July 2008, 05:36 PM

like i said im gonna worry about the motor next year. hopefully i get a few pay rises inbetween now and then

mr_tec · 20th July 2008, 07:36 PM
