Hi everyone, i have decided to finally start this thread because I'm now going to piece together my 1989 CRX SI. I have lots of parts for it and will post up parts that have been sitting around for almost 5 years. the plan is to get this car up and running by the winter warm-up race that will be taking place in January 2013 wish me luck and thanks for looking!!

Hey man,

Hope your health gets better.

Whats the plans for this build? Body seems to have no rust.

burnt_rice

Thanks for looking at my thread yes even though this car has been sitting for a while there is not much rust on it. When winter comes I plan to go full force into this build. The setup will be a built b20/ vtec with a gt35r journal bearing boost setup it's a project I have prolonged for too long now. Later I will add to my setup as time goes on, the plan is to have a well all around built crx capable of hitting low 10 sec to high 9 sec passes. Wish me luck and check back for more updates

Those weeds around your car.

I hate those things!

burnt_rice

It's been moved out of that area and I have updated pics I'll post up soon when I format them for some reason they won't upload but after I took off the front end I found wasp hives in the fenders that was a pain to get rid of but it got done. Also there were countless spiders on it too eek!

Awesome, I just re-read that and I see that ur gonna boost the s*it out of that. Awesome. What are your goals on power, what are you thinkin ur gonna get after all set up?

burnt_rice

Not sure what the goal on power is but I just want to put together this setup since this has been sitting for a while but I'm hoping for a decent setup then upgrade as time goes on.

joey bozz

Awesome, the body look damn good for sitting outside for 5 years. Good base, good plan, can't wait to see it come together man. Subscribed.

Oh btw, can I have ur seats hahaha

burnt_rice

For the most part the body is in decent shape which is why I didn't decide to buy another one to build from plus this car has a sentimental value to me. When I get the funds together I'll get cracking on this car hopefully soon. Thanks for the compliment!!

joey bozz

totally understand about teh sentimental value.. im in the same position.. i want my hatch to be what i want it to be, but im broke... but ive wanted a teal ef since i was 17, im 25 now and am souped i got one! i have you on daily sub emails. so ill be lurking lol.... no homo haha

There was a delay in my plans but i have not given up on my CRX, my integra sedan is almost done once that is ready to go ill get right back on this project. the plan is to make it to the last race of the year this year with hopefully one successful pass. i'll be bringing it back from the dead soon enough!

burnt_rice

I have had some success in obtaining some parts for the crx recently I acquired a aem EMS and I will hopefully be buying a new skunk2 ultra series intake manifold this next coming month.
