Re: 1 of a kind all steel widebody 500+hp rhd crx

The info was good to know man, thanks. I'm gonna have to end up using spacers and extended studs for my wheels, no way they will fit. I wish I had gotten a lower offset like +15 oh well lol.

Re: McGrubers all out crx track build

One thing that sucks is I noticed how bad the passenger side side marker and light fit. The previous owner used one head light from a 90-91 and the other from an 88-89 so the bracket is wrong.
