As promised, heres a glimpse of our B16 Swapped EG hatch. A lot of time went into cleaning up the engine bay for the new motor. It all paid off in the end, this thing looks clean!

Doin' Work!
Moving right along, our time has been consumed by our newly acquired B16 EG Hatch swap! We picked up our B16A2 on the beautiful Wednesday before Thanksgiving. We are currently prepping the EG hatch engine bay for this new beast to be laid in by Friday.

Sitting outside and enjoying the first real snow of the season are these two shells, the EG hatch on the right will be receiving its new heart transplant soon!

A quick sneak peak into the Lowest Standards garage reveals a real variety of engines! 4 cylinder from Japan, V8 from the US, and a straight six Europe style!

Codys Hatch is now up and running! Next up are the finishing touches that will perfect this little beast. Fuse box tuck, wheel flushness, and a RAD paint job will make this thing complete!
