ek 96 Track car

[1997Hondacivic]

Hello
im here for some time it doesnt mean i know all . I decide to share my built so you guys and girls give me your opinions and help me it so doubts. I hope finish this . Life its full of surprises and that can make this down, hope not.
So i bought this car to built for some track days. I have another honda but i don t wanna crash him in a track. For now im going to use a D15z6 and later if things go well get bigger one.

My plans for now its to remove the weight and built a roll cage and get the exterior parts missing and remove some rust that he haves.

Regards

Hey,

ooooo, it will take some time , you'll be here a while, lol.

go kanjo on it!

I happen to have been reading other topics it kanjo projects! Here in the forum. I like the concept. And then I saw a exhaust on a topic suggested by a member, my God. I'm still thinking about the color. I like the black, but lately I'm going crazy by yellow. Also want a car with competition graphs but this is only an idea and stay there.

cant wait to see this finished

Me too

New update .
I shave some weight and added some Horse power to the car.
Thus the improved power to weight ratio.

I order the hood and the front bumper.

Probably took too much weight,lol

Think it would have been easier to start with a runner! Im sure it will turn out great with some tlc.

Im assuming there is a tight budget for the build?

Hello what is tlc?!
Yes it would be easier to start with a runner. I do not know to what extent I can see me regret not having gone that route. But I have many pieces here at home. I'm having fun doing this alone. In terms of budget is not very big. But with time I get it.

Tender loving care

thx

 

[JohnTurbo]

Ahh yes...thanks!
I started with the most immaculate track-built car I could find and its still bleeding hard work when you start changing things.

You're having an excellent bonding experience with that hunk of metal though!
