Deetz's crx rebirth -been parked for 7 years
I'm not sure how it happened, but my most favorite car, my daily driver ( 89 CRX Si ), ended up getting parked up during its last swap in the year 2000, and hasn't been drivin since! I've have others ( 8 of them now ), but my good one was put on hold when i bought an Accord, then an RSX the following summer. This year all debts are paid off, and my baby will get all the attention to finish it off. It sits 95% done
Keep in mind that these 1st pics are a little older, you can tell with that high wing spoiler, lol and yes, it's gone now!
This car hasn't seen winter since 1994 since i bought it. I plan to buy off a couple last things for it while they're still in production, as i plan to have the car for many more years....a new climate control being one of them
I have replaced many part with oem new ones, as well as many select items from both Japan and Europe, as to compliment the car with features i appreciate. Keep tuned this summer as the rebirth will finally begin to happen :D

The engine was pulled from a front end clip back in 1999 with only 38,000kms. Its a B16A running an obdI conversion with a rare OBD1 PR3. It has ITR cams and intake manifold, skunk II cam gears, 65mm ported throttle body and upgraded fuel system.
The tranny was a very rare find i bought 10 years ago. Its a 1993 GSR YS1 with only 9,000 kms original on it pushing through a Toda flywheel and Centerforce DF clutch.

Ok, i picked up a new front end last week also managed to get a Mugen MR5 wheel/tire PKG and a set of EDM red stich door cards along with LHD window switches and regulators.
Today i bit the bullet and picked up some more goodies :D
I'm looking foward to getting the conversion done.

Re: (Deetz)
Thanks!
I am also working on a beefier setup for the car as i have to really come to love torque that come from more displacement. This is a 1999 model B18C5, not finished yet

damn man...
it's people like you that make me want to fill my CRX up with gasoline, set it on fire, then watch it go down the side of a cliff.... I have such a old piece of ****, and i can only dream about doing the **** you're doing. My first wish was to get a b18c5, and those ****** sexy *** door conversions? those are ****** tight assss. but yeah, basically, you make me ****** jealous... props on making the **** happen, i'll be here, still dreaming, still working like a slave at boston pizza, trying to save to RESTORE my old shitbox (which i love) but not when the bolts are so old and rusted on and break off when trying to work on it. Having to torch every bolt before working on it SUCKS *****. anyway, props on the build - can't wait to see it done

Thanks....i have yet to really see any proof that underdrive cranks cause any negative effects
