Hey guys, I had a crazy ass idea today while sittin' on the shitter:naughty: Anyways, I no longer have my MK3, but I do have the 7M. I also have my old Drag Chasis sitting in my garage collecting dust (a 95 Civic hatch, caged, fiberglass from the rear qp's forward, lexan windows, gutted, 4 link rear suspension, the whole bit) So, by now you see where I am going with this:biglaugh: As some of you may know, I make FFIM's, turbo headers, and whatnot, I am totally capable of making it work. I have a fiberglass front end on the thing so there is plenty of room for the motor, and I can fab the mounts and whatnot. Obviously, I would need to get a hold of a rear end, and drive line, transmission, and the list goes on and on. But how fucking cool would that be!!! Never seen a Civic hatch pop a wheelie:icon_surp Anyways, drinkin on a little Smurrrnnnofff tonight, so maybe I am just crazy talkin? let me know what you guys think.

7M-GTE DOHC with 'teh VTAK. :D

VTAK - Go big or go home. :nono:




I know, it's a CRX and not an actual Civic Hatchback, but I think the same concept with a 7M in a Hatch. :biglaugh: Except...instead of a big blower, how about a big GT47 sticking out (wink wink Bryan). ;)

Theres a CRX like that out here in Oregon, some shop in West Salem, maybe the same one you are talking about? Watched it race a time or two, its all sorts of squirl-ly going down the strip! I loved it, could use some beautifying though. My hatch is clean as hell. Would be a kick ass project. Don't think if I could get the wife as jazzed about the idea as I am. I wear the pants, but she tells me which ones I can wear :)

My buddy just finished dropping one in a Corolla GTS. This is out test chassy and motor, so, everything looks messy at the moment.

LOL, I already asked you for a quote and work experience for my Twin Turbo 7M Build-up. I would like to see how your work looks like.

Dude, check me out in the Misc. Vendors section of this forum. I put up some pics of the 7M mani's I just built. Other than that I could show you hundreds of projects (but most of them are Honda related) I'm just getting into the MK3 stuff, so I don't have a lot to show. But believe me when I say, there will be much more to come! Stay tuned.
