Campanelli's slow build thread

OMG it has VTEC?
So if we prep the car and everything its $600 for a repaint in Milano Red, or $1300 for a different color(Desert Metallic Mist or Dark Amethyst Pearl. Those are the colors I am wanting). My step dad knows the guy and his work, I guess.

I got the other parts on except the hatch, its going on tomorrow before the autoX.
From being rear ended nothing lines up right and it sucks. Pics:



Here is the ugly gaps:cry:


I found out I have some broken exhaust manifold studs, so thats where my exhaust is leaking from:???::x


And 2 pictures just to show how crappy my car is

Yea he is a good photographer.

I let my friend drive my car one time...one time. I just crashed(like energy drink crash) it was last summer and then we are coming to my house and she slams on the brakes we are fine don't hit the person in front of us. Person behind us not so much they are going around 30, mash the brakes last second and then hit us. No insurance either :) not... :(

I'm going to Sioux Falls, SD next weekend for autoX, should be a good time.
Edit and just one more picture cause I'm bored and never sleep. Maybe more pictures to come depends on who took them and how they edit them

I never made it to Sioux Falls for the AutoX, I need to pay my ticket, paint my car and pay it off before I can even start going places to race. It sucks

I lifted the back of the hood and put my heat sheild back on, engine temps were insane the last autoX. Next autoX is this weekend, I think my tranny is going to be done for after the season is over. Then I get to use my money I don't have on a b16, hopefully LSD, tranny clutch and flywheel.

My car is back to burning alot of oil so, next summer a rebuild is in session since I have all my exterior wants done, besides everything lining up perfect :(.

Well it finally happened my car got painted, one thick layer instead of thin ones, orange peel etc. For 600 I can't complain. It looks alot better than it did before.
Transmission is most likely air in the clutch line or slave or master is going out. Better than a transmission.

Putting interior back in tomorrow, lip back on etc finishing touches. I really want a CF hatch and hood now because mine are pretty dented now that the new paint is on (couldn't see before). I also bought an N1 style muffler cause I'm a ricer and that will be on sometime. No real plans for winter besides paying it off

On to pictures before:


After(Paint is alot better in pictures then real life but lets pretend):
Picture has no edit

for anyone who cares. what you referred to as a valance. on a parts list, its referred to as the rear assembly. found that out after i looked at the insurance quote of what was to be replaced after the drunk driver rear ended my DC2. its the little things,
