Bad add builds man. It's cool going from being a young broke kid to having some disposable money to build the car how you want without always thinking 100% about budget. I've always really enjoyed doing **** as cheap as possible but my current crx I just want it to haul *** and do it for a while so I can focus on other aspects of the car.

I 100% agree.

If you look at my old build thread everything was budget, this is what I spent all of my disposable income on.

Its really cool being able to check off things on the list I made for the crx goals in 2005 now finally coming to forision.

HUGE thanks to Vibrant, SpeedFactory, and Myriad Motorsports for making this build a reality!

Wing finally on after years of waiting

Polishing the lights before installing them.

My 3 sexy cars


Its all coming back together step by step.

I think I'm going to order the Hush clutch hydro conversion, along with the brake booster delete. Has anyone had issues with either? Do you have just as much braking control with out a booster?

Such a clean build dude, just unreal. Going to look better than the day it rolled off the showroom floor seriously though will have to be one of the cleanest left in existence with the work you've done.

I have heard nothing but good things about Hush products.

Thanks a ton man! I'm really excited to see it all coming together after over 10 years of planning.

The hard thing about black is taking pictures of it does no justice. It is very hard to tell how clean it is haha.

Trying to get all the gaps just perfect for the reinstall

Rear end back together, but not perfect. I have a few more changes

Starting to work on the bay. The engine is pretty much ready to drop in.

Glam shot.

Yup, black is my favorite color on a car. I know how much of a pain it can be to maintain it properly, but also how stunning it can be in person when you do.

Thats the truth! As you can tell I live on a gravel alley so its a huge paint to keep my cars clean. The dust just blows into my garages so even if I put the cars away clean, they are dusty in the morning... Drives me crazy. Almost painted the car a different color because of that haha. Ended up keeping it black since everyone knows me by my black crx, cant change the image

Running the Zero for the final time this year on Saturday/Sunday! It got new Blox Drag coils installed, I'm hoping to cut some 1.6 60ft's with it, and get into the 11's on 7psi.

Good luck this weekend! Those are some solid goals.

I hear ya on the dust problems... I once had a brand new black car when I lived in Florida and it was terrible because I was **** about it. I kept a car cover on it in the garage, and in the parking lot at work This is why I am enjoying having a white car for a change!

Seriously though it does look amazing in the pics. Considering going black myself if/when I ever get resprayed.

I have been out of town traveling, along with it snowing almost nothing has gotten done to any of my projects. I got a shop space in a new building so FINALLY, I can start working on the cars during the winter! The Zero was moved there, crx will be next.



Project S2ooo!
While hiking on a mountain in Washington I closed a deal on the worlds cheapest Honda S2000. I made a offer of 2,5oo$ for this running 2003 S2k, so now I'm going to build a cheap track car over the winter. I had a tow truck haul it over to the shop without ever seeing it. Now that I'm back work has started! The goal here is BUDGET, much like the Zero was.


This is how I found it when I got to see it for the first time.

Bolted up the new stuff so it would roll again. Still needs a axle, brake line, rotor, to drive.

Ordered new used LCA, upper, hub

The old broken bent ****.


Engine bay is clean for the price.


Bolted up everything, then started pounding out the quarterpannel

Tossed some civic si wheels I had laying around as rollers since most of the s2k tires are done.

Parts I still need: Contact me if you have any of this for sale.
Drivers tail light, pass head light, front bumper, rear bumper, over fenders, drivers shock, lowering springs.

Pulling out the quarter.

Ghetto, but this worked pretty good.

This side came out really good.


After I pulled it out and grinded out the filler

Got a set of Evo 8 wheels for $100
