Dinosaur Rex: My 86 CRX Si
After getting this 86 CRX Si a few years ago and some tinkering here & there, especially from being a complete basketcase....Heres how it sits at the moment. The JDM fan bois and Herra frush crowd probably wont embrace it... Quite frankly I dont really care, as I built it for my enjoyment and wasnt trying to be trendy with it anyway. The only thing left to do is more suspension work and I may get bigger brakes so I can start autocrossing and doing some HPDE soon.

Gorgeous car. If I may ask.. where did you get your clear corner/fender lights? Iv'e been looking for a replacement pair for my 84 rex which was in an accident, and been having a hell of a time finding ones of any color for that matter.

Re: Dinosaur Rex: My 86 CRX Si
Thanks!
Im happy you did. Thanks.
Thanks, as for the corner lights....I bought these off someone one RPR that is located in UK. These are of the euro (EDM) CRX.
Im looking for a nice set of 14" panasports or 14x7 enkei rpf1s.
I kind of wanna stay with 14s on this car.
Ha, it was one of those things that made me rethink what I was doing. In the end I couldnt do it, I have a lot of time in it and decided to just enjoy it till the wheels fall off. I was surprised how many offers and deals I was getting too.

Nice example of a gen 1.
I recently picked up my third - red like that but with the light silver two tone. Lucky enough to have the roof vent and 'popup' lights. Lot of work to get it where I want it, but its usable now.
njoy autocrossing it - I track one of mine, and its great fun.

Re: Dinosaur Rex: My 86 CRX Si
Cool. If its a white crx si its a one year only color in white.
Thank you sir. Your 3G hatch and 1g integra are sweet as well.
Im thinking of getting the similar looking Panasports or maybe some 14x7 Enkei RPF1s.
Just hang on to it as these are becoming harder and harder to find.
Shitty pic,but heres a pic of the rest of the dash...

The front is off a 95 accord and the side skirts are off a 99 civic coupe, both trimmed to fit.

The wheels in the first pic are a set of old 14" TSW Quads.

Re: Dinosaur Rex: My 86 CRX Si
Picked up some new wheels. Although not what I originally wanted (14x7 Enkei RPF1s), I picked up a set of 15x7 Drag DR21s. Im using the rest of the money to take my kid and wife out this weekend to a theme park and pay some bills..... Anyhoo, heres the pics.......
