I did the engine bay the same way by just taping things up instead of taking everything out. Looks good man

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

Looking good!

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

what are your plans for this crx?

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

no plans really. just want to have a fun street car that is clean

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

wired up the knock sensor and o2 sensor tonight.

it took me 6 different alternator belts but i finally cleared the frame rail. theres probably a few millimeters between the alternator pulley and the frame rail. i have about 1/4" on the tensioner that i could pull the alternator closer to the engine.

grinded off the rust and painted my headlights flat black

Headlights look great, I might do that!

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

It looks real good so far!

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

What color is that yellow? Looks similar to the E36 M3, Dakar Yellow!

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

Barbados yellow, the original color for this crx.

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

the engine bay looks brighter cause its new paint and the exterior is kinda faded

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

Looks nice. And like the Dakar Yellow on M3s, it looks very period-correct.

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

Updates or we riot.

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

i havent got to work on my car in a few days. i had to hang all new drywall in my garage ceiling and i am in the middle of a move to ft worth, tx. we sent our 3rd 16x8.5' trailer load down this morning. i should get the chance to work on it for the next few days though and i hope i can get it running this weekend

things i have left to install before i can get it running:
new exhaust
starter
intake
front bumper
throttle cable
clutch cable
ecu
radiator
axles
shift linkage and shifter

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49

Looking good

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

tried to start the car up yesterday and it wasnt getting fuel to the engine. i never hear my fuel pump prime when i turn the key either.

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

Check your grounds, especially near the thermostat. Also check the main relay. ECU throwing any codes?

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

If this goes anything WhiteSlips swap went, it'll be super clean.

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

We only know one way to do it

Re: Trent89's CRX Si B20 Y49
 

car is running and driveable. it idles really low and surges and will eventually die if i dont feather the gas. i was able to drive it on the trailer though. just moved to ft worth yesterday. hoping i can get it running right so i can start cruising it.
