looking good
come on make it awd like mine

This shell will never be made AWD. Maybe in a couple years if I decide to swap it all into a shell that isn't half rusted, then I'll consider that. But that may be a conversion I'd have to contract out to someone who knows what the hell they're doing. I don't trust myself with that measure of work. I'd have a drive shaft that's cocked at a 5* angle or something by the time I'm done!

Lil-Evo is selling a swapped dvd. Also, he has another dvd for awd swapped.

Ya I seen that. But didn't he do his swap on a sedan? I'd think there would be a few differences when dealing with a hatch.

There were people a few years back actually did a swapped on a hatch. It isn't too hard but costly. If I were to do it, I will pay someone to complete it for me.I wouldn't mind buying his dvd but I'm going to wait for burn copy.
Good luck man. I'm thinking of getting that black one out in PA. What is he asking for it is a nice deal.

Well I've been pretty lazy with this thing as of late since it's so deng cold. Anywho I put in about 2 hours of work on it today. I managed to accomplish:

- Installed FIAV/ISC blocked of 92 style throttle body
- Installed 1g Fuel Rail (this is needed for the 92 TB to fit) w/ colt FPR
- Removed all A/C lines but one.
- Removed DS fender that was dangling and driving me nuts for the past few weeks.
- Removed FPR Solenoid
- Removed some excessive bracketry and stuff that will no longer be needed.

Big thanks to QPR for the lovely EGR and FIAV block off plates!!! HAHA j/k, nobody get ur panties in a bunch!

Maybe one of the mods could move this to the project forum, since this is going to be my project and I'll update it as I go along.

Ripped out the rest of the AC, except the compressor. That thing is rusted in there. I'll get it eventually.

I ripped out the fuse box pertaining to the AC fan, compressor, and radiator fan. I'll probably just wire the fan constantly on.

I am going to be doing a P/S elimination mod (big thanks to my Honda friends for the idea). This should eliminate everything dealing with P/S, leaving only a reservoir and a couple short hose lines.

I ripped out the radiator. It will be replaced with a Del Sol half sized radiator.

That's it so far.

Started soldering all the wires that were just twisted and taped together. Got all the big power wires done. Next is all the small ones. Also replaced the 90 TPS with the 91 style plug since I'll be running a 91 TB now.
