Well plans have changed again with the coupe. I had planned on parting out the coupe and selling it as a whole, but as i was parting it my brother got his k24/k20 motor build done and i figured why not just fix my car and re-spray it all myself and with the help of friends:) Plans with the coupe is to be done by spring 2012. Big thanks goes out to [email protected] HYBRID RACING for helping me out with this build also! Enough talk, Let the build begin.

Re: Hard parkin k20a2 Koupe build thread!

thanks guys:)

Well sadly i sold my spgs, auto power, and takata's for money to buy camera gear and start my photography business. and Now i have to buy the roll bar and spgs over again. Good thing is, i'm getting a hook up on them:) But for now i'm going to be re-working the interior, this time i'm doing a full re-spray.

I was tired of water coming in threw the trunk and decided i'm going to weld in all the holes, and grind them smooth. Not worried about it being perfect as this is not a show car, just want the holes gone, so no filler is used:) Here is where I'm at right now!

I removed all the seat belt/seat mounting mounts also! No more back seats. No need for them with a roll bar in tieback

After: I still have to weld back up a few spots that didn't get covered all the way. Honda's metal is paper thin!!!
