Dove into the EG scene headfirst. The story of "Tazia"

[inline6turbo]

Alright so recently I thought it would be a good idea to get into the EG scene. Dove head first and so far I'm loving it!

So I bought two little hatchs. A really riced out 94' DX (Snow White) that... has potential (just humour me lol). Initial steps with this car will be restoring it back to stock form, hood, front and rear bumpers, lights, rims, everything (if anyone has a OEM white hood I can buy, let me know) Then rocking it as a winter car while I work on the real project.

You may all remember her as Naomi, she was a member's car, LilDrunkenSmurf. Well. Naomi died. And I'm resurrecting her as Tazia, short for Anastasia, which in Italian means "Rebirth". Couldn't use the French version because well, that's Renee... and that would just be weird. It's a 92' SI with a B16A.

So this is going to be a few months in the making and the plan is to have her all up and going by the Summer Cruise, hopefully sooner though.


Here's Snow White after driving her to her new home, what a site! I felt reallll special rocking down deerfoot in that. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of Tazia as she arrived because it was too late in the evening and it was by tow truck.

Here they are together in front of my desk awaiting their collective fate.






The Damage

The Teardown, had to get Tony to sawsall everything, scares the crap out of me.

Ah engine mounts! Completely destroyed. Must have been a bumpy ride!

Renee, pick n pull may have a lot of the parts you need for both cars if you're willing to make the trek down there.

I might have a stock fuel pump from a 93 DX, would that work?
