Default Old new guy.....


Hey all. Been out of the Honda world for quite some time but getting back in.

Timeline:
2001 - Bought a 1992 CX Hatch, did all the body work, paint, b16, turbo, built trans.
2006ish - Car was sideswiped by an uninsured driver. Engine let go shortly after that. Sold shell to a guy from the same town as me.
2016 - Guy that bought it was moving out east and was not going to take the car with him. Had put a B18B in it with a B16 transmission. New radiator, cai and all new mounts, etc. Could not get the car to run. Bought it back from him.
2016 - present - Was searching for parts for the body. Found them all and it is now in the body shop getting a quarter panel and door replaced. Painting 80% of the car.
Later this week, taking it to an ex honda senior master tech to figure out why it wont run.

This is the first car my wife met me in so I am building it for us to drive and shoot around in.
