FABGUY EVO8 Build Milspec Carbon & Kevlar

This is my first personal evo build so i decided to do a couple things i havent seen done before. The history on the car is i purchased it a while back as a rolling shell. i had the entire car repainted along with the engine bay. I then decided to redo all my brake lines and make a custom milspec wiring harness to clean up my engine bay.

I purchased a set of Advan RS wheels 18x10 footprint. Next i i purchased a set wilwood brakes. this is just the beginning though...


VIS DEMON trunk Installed


Sleeping on the Dyno Ramps

MilSpec connector on the firewall

Dual Harness

Kevlar Booster Mounted Up

NEW MW Pro-14 Box With AEM Series 2 Honda Civic 30-6050 Box...Much cheaper than the EVO Box.....

AWD Motorsports Wilwood Brake Kit

Dry Carbon Dash Pieces

Since we make custom Carbon and Kevlar pieces inhouse i made a mold for these. These are the first from the mold. i will be replacing them with Kevlar ones for my motor. later on. As well as a Kevlar SE front lip too to replace my Seibon lip.

The wiring harness looks very nice. Going sequential with the Pro-14?

LOL everything down here uses the civic 6050 boxes. Current projects are SR20 240sx civic box, 3rd gen RX7 civic box, and a 300zx civic box. Since all the internals on the boards are tbe same all you have to do if move the jumpers around inside the box for either hal or mag sensors and change a few software settings. since the civic boxes are significantly less expensive than most other boxes it woulds out. Since we are building custom harnesses either way it wont matter what box you would be using.

yes this will be a full sequential setup. MW has this box available now to go sequential to run sequential on the stock ecu as well. that was my original plan but i decided to go aem for a couple different reasons.

Got started on my double pump setup. I just hollowed out the underside of the g=fuel pump housing. I drilled my holes for the new bulk head fittings. Im going to be using twin Aeromotive 340lph pumps on my build.

Nice work I'm thinking of cutting and flaring out my front guards and replacing the inners with a Kevlar weave front inner. Was the Kevlar any harder to work with than a carbon or fibre weave?
