What's the spec of engine? Looks a tidy shell just needs a front lip!

fully rebuilt top to bottom with upgraded bits..acl bearings and ctr cams etc.head work and lightened crank .everything has been replaced from oil pump to water pump, valves , toda flywheel and pistons everything. fresh as the day it came from honda.
ye the wheels are to be painted black and few other body bits. belive me a splitter is last thing on my mind..next is to upgrade all the brakes.
 
Great work with the build - bet it is very rewarding indeed :D
Not a fan of the rear spoiler but its your teg.

As said just needs a front splitter adding and will finish it off nicely :clap:
 
Haha a spliter will not finish this car...there are hundreds of other bits to be done..i wish a splitter would finish it.
 
Nice job mate! Itll be wort it in the end clean dc2s in ireland are rare as flying leprechauns
 
Will look savage when all back together! What front lip are you going for?

You say a freshly well built B18? Whats the spec? Upgraded or just re-built with OEM parts?

Look forward to more on this!
 
Mugen splitter goin on this week..the engine is tandard but streathend..the head was polished n ported and crank was balanced with full blueprint....not one part wasnt changed on the internals with after market parts wen i could like pistons and bearings.. I put 03 recaro euro r seats in it.
