I'm getting close to finishing my time attack CRX, so I guess it's time to start a build thread.

It's always been a dream of mine to build a turbo charged CRX built specificly for track ownage. It's only taken about 8 years to build up enough knowledge and capital to be able to pull off a project like this, but it's now a reality. I will be running in the NASA rocky mountain series in 09, and trailering the car to most if
not all of the events accross the west.

91 CRX DX

Short list of mods:
- Built B16 trans with a Quaife
- Stock B16 block with built GSR head (will run it until it blows)
- 10pt chromo cage with 'nascar' bars
- sparco pro circuit, and fighter2 seats
- CF splitter (Special projects)
- special projects rear wing
- CF diffuser (RPM)
- extensive lightening all around
- Koni Yellows with 500/600lb skunks and extended tophats
- blox LCA's with modded poly bushings
- FR traction bars
- Rear teg sway bar with aluminum heim links and custom brackets
- Teg brakes F/R with cobalt pads in front, PBR in the rear
- Twin scrowl GT3082R
- Modded F-R PWR rad
- Hossier 225/55/15 R6s
- Oil cooler/meth injection
- Mfactory roll center adjuster ball joints
- Tuned with Neptune (Jeromy's the man)
- lots more, but you get the idea

On with the pics:

wow! gonna be awesome!

 

Thanks man. Congrats on the tunerzine layout!

 

wow your build is going by fast.

 

bad *** setup

 

looking great

 

thanks guys. I got the oil cooler installed. I should have a couple updates posted this weekend.

 

good progress

 

looks like a great build, GL!

 

Car looks good, I swear you switch manifolds more then women switch handbags

 

The setup looks sick. You definitely do some great work. Sorry to ask this in this thread but...by any chance did you ever make a divided top mount manifold? Are you still making manifolds for sale?

 

updates?

Thanks. I have. I made a divided T4 topmount for my freinds H22 00 prelude. Right now this is my only divided topmount offering. I am still making manifolds, but am not advertising on HT. You can email me if you have any questions: Boostwerks@hotmail.com

Sorry guys. I havn't done much to the car since I finished the oil cooler. I have been working on my 99 Jeep Cherokee to get it ready for trailer/DD duties for next year. I have also been developing the worlds first manifold based turbo kit for the 4.0L jeeps based off my own rig. I desperately needed tires and new wheels for the heep, so I figured it was the perfect time to get the work done and bugs worked out. I'll have some pics of it posted soon... but heres a little list of parts:

- 16" Konig Countersteers
- 33x11.5 Maxxis bighorns
- custom 4" lift with Bilstein 5100s
- Borg 57 trim with 3" V band housing
- Stainless log manifold

 

any updates?

 

Yes actually. Some pics of my tow rig/DD, which has delayed the progress on the car...









It's no dually, but will easily be able to haul my measily 3500lbs of trailer/race car to where I need to go. There are still a couple mods I need to do to increase comfort and towing safety, but it's getting there soon.

I'll be working on the car this weekend actually as well. I can FINALLY start on the rear suspension.

 

in to watch this one for a while...

Didnt I read a while back that you were going to be building a turbo kit for your hauler at one point?

 

Yup. I'll be building a SCh40 log manifold for the 4.0L jeep motor, along with using a borg 57 trim and tial 38mm external. I'm going to rebuild my transfer case first, but should be starting the turbo build soon after. I'm hoping for a modest 250whp out of the setup on low boost.








So I just tried to replace a straight AN fitting on my oil cooler to a 90deg for space savings, and somehow managed to crack the cooler core.

I was hoping I could start this damn thing this weekend. I guess not.

 

Lifted trucks and boosted Xs thats how i roll

 

Same here

 

Im going to the trd charger AFTER i finish my crx

 

just found this.

so mint!

 

very sick.

 

Awesome build man.

 

Looks awesome Bryson! Jeep is sweet also...what wheels are those?
