It died when Ryan, Jade, and I all got busy with life We talked about it, but then Ryan and I moved away. Every year the group got smaller and smaller. The camping was the best part.

Edit: I got all nostalgic and went through pics. I can't believe someone still has them hosted: http://norcalcrx.org/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=14

Im going to put it here first, any interest in a fullrace turbo manifold, gt30r, and fmic?

I think the crx is going to be parted down due to hardships, most likely I will keep the shell but the goodies need to go.

Tahnks, credit cards are too much, instead of living off of rice and beans, I rather sell off a few $ parts and enjoy life, esp since the crx is 1500 miles away from me.

Happy to hear you're keeping the shell. You're doing it right. Once you have a kick *** paying job in the next few years you can bring it back. That Playa hata degree is going to work wonders.

i had to get a pretty terrible job paying half of what i was getting just to get by. Now my crx repays me by not running right. Always nice to be appreciated. Sucks to hear that so many people here are hitting hard times still.

Yep that is why the 89 civic si is sitting and the crx is sitting with a blown motor.

Life got in the way and lack of motivation.

Mine just happened to be a 10% paycut so we can keep 68 million in the bank to make the books look good.

But on a positive note we had a 50 year anniversary party at work and all got given 50 year anniversary coats. WTF!!!!!

We are all calling them the pay deduction coats.

I've got a few buddies that have just lost motivation on our EF builds, selling parts off etc. But keeping the basic shell.

I've almost considered twice selling all my RHD stuff, just due to lack of motivation.

Anyone interested in GabEF8s old setup?

You will receive the front flares with fenders and the sideskirts, both are cut for the GT-style flare. Js does not make the skirts anymore and im pretty sure this is the only set in North America and good luck even finding these in japan.
I can probably get the rear flares for $350 more. The front flares will come with the pieces that were cut and the rears if purchased also come with the cut pieces incase you want to mold them back
Gabe spent alot of time to make everything fit nicely.. Ive seen people complain about not having a good looking way of running wider flares.. well here it is.


Price is $750 obo for the front flares, fenders and skirts.























Pickup would be in Socal or shipped at buyers expense

It CAN work, but an intergra unit is best. I would get a BNIB, used ones tend to be stretched leading to partial engagement.

You WILL recover. It took me about two years after my purchase/minor remodel to start having fun with my money again.
