Got the motor in! now i just have to sort out this wiring(previous owner did a wire tuck and relocated fuse box under the dash) and also have no steering column/ignition/dash in it just a mess of wires..

nice, keep on the good stuff have you decided on what paint color will you be going with?

project91crxsi

i was thinking possibly white, red, or midori green

project91crxsi

thanks, i hope so because i tend to get bored of cars very quickly lol

yea, this is my first build like that, ive bought a shell and dropped a motor in but never built one basically from a bare body, what a rush when it started up, i cant wait for the first time i drive it

id like to do a crx build in the future, had a 91 dx as my first car i loved that thing

project91crxsi

so today i sorted out all the wiring issues with the harness(the kid i got it from extended all the body harness plugs so it could be tucked, turned out to be a real pain in the ***, only thing left is the wiper motor plug(i turn the car on and the wipers go on high when their suppose to be off). i also ran the harness back through the dash and finished putting the rest of it in and plugged everything in

so far so good

Midori is a very nice color but white is classic.

project91crxsi

yea still undecided on color, but its gotten pretty far, i drove it around alittle today just working out minor issues. i need to upload more updated pics, getting the windshield done monday then need a front bumper and headlights

project91crxsi
