I fail to believe myself, i know somthings going to fark up, it always does, but at the meet I saw alot of nice cars, all b18's i thought no-one has got a H22 swap here , so thought guess its time to pull mine out.

prove me wrong!

How Much Is Left To Do On It Know ?

Fair bit to do yet.

Well inside is pretty much done, just need to fit my steering wheel and bucket seats.



Just waiting for my wheels now till I make anymore progress on the chassi/engine!

Big difference Yo, coming together nicely.

that picture makes me happy and warm inside

yes tesh!

What seats are going in??

Shame about the weather, I would have said ill come over and help you get them fitted.

i can smell satin black?? looool

Yh cuz, i used your satin black idea worked a treat!

Powelley I could maybe use your help with the bucket seats using the ones i had in the EG, I want to put OEM ek rails on them like you did to Neds, (I'm on a budget big time).

Im glad it rained today, gave me an excuse to have a proper lazy Sunday

same here mate^

glad your getting this EK sorted

Let me know when you wanna do it as ill have to charge up my drill and dig out some nuts n bolts etc.

But yeah easy enough job mate :-)

Ezza - I have no other option.

Powelly - Yeh I have rails, I have the bolts from the rails that are on the bucket seat already (but the rails are fucked) never though about drilling OEM rails and then bolting them up untill I saw you guys do it.

4th gens lol yeah easy enough to do, how fooked are the rails?? any pics??

Well thats was the last time I will see these wheels, they never fitted the car properly scraped loads and I cba with camber adjusters ect I just want to get this car finished and mechanically solid and more of an all go less show appeal, that said I sold the 16's (plus BBS style ect its just played out anyways).

BYE BYE (Was little gutted at the point of sale to be honest but needs must an all that crap!!!)


I chose OEM ITR wheels 15" for a sleeper appeal, they are pretty light and 15" tyres are cheap. Got them fully refurbed this week.




Just need to get my tyres fitted put two on the back of the car for now and its time to get down to business with the car once and for all!

Great Job!

Minor update,

Sunday was a dry day so decided to crack on.

Slapped two wheels on the back so I could work under the car without thinking it may fall ontop of me.



Took all my front Hubs, Arms and wishbones off ready to be replaced with all newer EK9 arms ect stonger bushes in the arms, new ball joints in the hubs and bigger front anti roll bar.

Going to under seal the whole lot before i put any parts back on.




Then I decided fark it may aswell take the gearbox off ready to fit my new one on.







Then left her like this stripped and hanging


Next on list for the front end:

-Under seal front end.
-Fit all new EK9 upper and lower arms
-New ball joints
-new CV joints
-Bigger EK9 anto roll bar
-New S4C gearbox
-Koni Yellow shocks.

Before that going to just freshen up the engine bay nothing major, but just so it looks ok and get rid of all the surface rust, so much to do

Thanks All !

sweet update mayyyn!!

what you doing withthe old 5 lug setup?? holla man

5lug thung is staying, just putting new ball joints in.
