[QUOTE=drewboy]heck yeah! so how is the married life? im contemplating it myself, just a bit nervous..QUOTE]
Don't be nervous man. Married life is great. I just got married to my wife after 5 1/2 years and it's great. We just bought a house and I'm working on it and working night term at the same time. It can be stressfull at the same time but man I'll tell you. When she looks at you and says I love you hubby, it's all worth it. But anyway, great build man. I wish that I could get my car right but with the house and my small *** garage, it's hard.

O mine is not that big, not at all. (man that does not sound right)

Well here some pics like I said.
My chip: thanks again John


and a little advertising: lol


the O2 sensor new, and there only 25$


Some one asked to see a close up of the gauge pod


My A/F, (for now) Wide band coming soon


I love the way it sits in there!!



And new LED's for my gauge cluster


I also to an old intake I had and wire wheeled the paint off, I like the aluminum look and it will look good with the aluminum air box I will be building.


I got this from e-bay and I really like it, well worth the $25.00


Thanks for looking guys I should have my shifter soon and just ordered my shift **** to. I am so close I can taste it, and when the white car is done and I sell it, I am using the money to get the good stuff!!!

There is a reason the Bosch O2 sensors are $25, they suck. Do a search and see the experience from alot of guys here, especially the Integra forum, that have tried to use them and had bad results. For some reason, the Bosch O2 sensors don't want to work with the Honda ECU's very well. The NGK sensors which are very affordable also, are the bomb and can be found on their web site. I just figured with all the attention to detail that you have in this build, that you would want the better O2 sensor. Keep up the good work, and if you get the Bosch to work, let us know the results.

I have the O2 removed from the ECU, My A/f is going right to the o2 for now. I'll let you know how it works. The ECU dose not see it.

No, that's why I did it like that, because the car did not have the moldings. I will be buying new ones for the blue CRX.

Ok here some paint, only got the fenders and bumpers done, damn it was HOT!!!



new filters






















and my new REX (his name) lol


Now the paint did not turn out as good as I would have liked, but it will do. The front bumper was pretty bad before I painted it but It's the onlt one I had, you can see the dent in the bumper. I am thinking of putting something there like a little Aluminum plate, not sure yet.
