Has anyone used the Hasport hydro conversion kit? http://hasport.com/shop/product_info...roducts_id=179

The bracket that bolts on to the rad support. It's a bracket where you would bolt on your bumper support onto. You have to use the 88-89 bracket and gotta be 10mm bolts. I'll try to get some pics.

Crx lives again. Basically there was a tiny piece of metal in the intake cam gear thread. This was causing the cam gear not to be 100% snug. So as it would turn, it would jump a little bit (not advancing) , thus causing a ****ed up ckp and cps signal, tripping a code. Removed that piece and got it running code free. Man its been a long day....

HAPPY TO HEAR CHEMIST! Stop with that crazy parting out talk.

Still unsure of what hydro set-up to use.. The sonem looks like its going to need a lot of fuxing with.. and I just cant find any info on the Hasport set-up.

You guys think its worth it to buy some performance shocks if you keep stock springs? I'm a spirited driver, but i'm not willing to invest in springs, and deal with the alignment issues that lowering the car brings you on my DD. But it is time to replace the shocks and i'm considering some GR-2's or Tokico Blues over the Duralast. Think it'll be worth it?

NOPE

been biting through the 11s for 2 years almost...

nobody at the track could believe it was a stock SOHC (barely any quick hondas here to begin with, and everybody thinks my car is a D16)

so fun. i really am in love with my rig right now

Bart to the rescue! we got it figured out on saturday night, and took it out for its maiden voyage. this car is going to be incredible.

i dont have pics of the whole trip cause im a champion and only do it in one stop. Hatchback averaged 38 mpg on the trip.

these pics here are the official Premiere of Both my hatch, which i just bought, an Justins CRX, which is on its 2nd chassis, 3rd turbo kit, 3th girlfriend and 1st cat (we all wish we could have a herman). no other words can describe this car other than Epic. this is a perfect crx boys and girls. pay attention. numbers from the Tune will be posted before this time next week.

im really sorry i only had my iphone for a camera. his batteries died in his cam but these pics needed to get taken and posted.

hello


move that hatch!


wtf? the crx is hardly even in this picture!


getting warmer..


finally! i thought i was never gonna get to see it!


omg that profile...


best lookin shoe ive ever seen.


that front mount intake hasnt even been released yet.


benson, FR, 30R, FR, twin disk...... serious.


then is was straight back home to work in the morning. caught this on the way. rainbow over the mountains. i :heart: new york summers.

Aw guys I miss this thread.... what's new, anyone seen my old car yet? I bought some h&r springs and bilsteins to drop the m coupe the other day. Can't wait to get them installed.


Yesterday a new 7 series bmw was trying to race me. I thought he was weird and I rolled up my windows. More importantly there was no road room to play on.
