BC - dont give up, if anything see if you can reschedule the tuning appt, that seems to be what is really causing the frustration. It's true, you wont get nearly enough back out of the car, if you're okay with that, then that's another story.

Remember, true projects, the ones I've read about at least generally start as "What was a simple upgrade became a (insert number of years) project..." It's ongoing. But if you are just sick of it and want to move on, I dont think anyone can say anything, it's not their car, money or time.

Question: What seat brackets should I use for the crx. I have Status seats, but it doesn't seem like anyone makes brackets for them. I like the vision low, but they only make them for eg/dc.

Recaro, Corbeau, and Buddy Club all make brackets with sliders. You simply need a side mount style set-up...nothing is specific to any model seat. I use Recaro sliders and side mounts for a Bride seat.

...speaking of seats:

Does anyone know if '96-'00 civic seats will work in an ef if I do a pan swap??? I would just try it, but the seats are 300 miles away at my pop's house.

I have the wedge bracket with recaro stuff. The great thing about Wedge (if you live in LA) is they'll do up whatever you want right there at their shop. They are a bit on the pricey side and slow on the delivery though.

Jolly, I believe mine will do you up then. Its the Sparco driver side seat base and I have sidemount seat brackets, all you need is a slider. Let me know if your interested, if so, just shoot me an offer of what you think is fair, I just have them sitting, in new cond.

See my link below.

Stupid Question... What clutch cable do you use when installing a bseries into a 91crx?
A 92-93 Integra (22910-sk7-a80) or Just a stock CRX cable? and does it make any difference when using a hasport adapter?

Anyone know where that Hydro conversion page went? Sonem I think.?

the stock one will work, but its a pain in the *** to get it on the lever from personal experience esp with a heavy clutch. the Da is a bit longer i think. They deleted that thread cause it was too much advertisement like when it wasnt, ht ftl

Andy!!! Saw your CRX in person today, small world!!! I pulled my EF out to get gas and saw your old rex pull in. Talked with the new owner for a while. Looked awesome and the bay was so clean it barely looked real1 Very nice build dude, it was funny to see a car that you have only seen on the internet for the past couple year(s) in your hometown, at your home gas station. Small world!!

You have to do a pan swap to get them to fit...88 rails are different from 89-91

Anyone want a set of ZC headlights? I bought them from STREETWERKZ when he parted out his black CRX but I've sold my EF and I still have them. Never been installed or touched since i bought them from him. No one seems to want to buy them in marketplace so I figured I'd try here instead.

I'm letting them go for cheap too ($100 + shipping) cause I'm trying to finish my turbo build.

I learned something new today, if you wanted a 88-89 front bumper, you gotta get the bumper support bracket that attaches to the rad support, same as 90-91, you gotta get 90-91 brackets otherwise it wont line up nicely.

Look how nice my front end line up with my 88-89 bumper and the rest is 90-91.

Can you clarify on this with parts pics? I lined my 89 front end up, but still have a little bit of gap.

What does California's economic status have to do with seat rails and a junk yard? It's an actual question, not a joke.

It's pretty easy to do though.
