Nice! Glad you made it to the track. What did you learn about the car or what adjustments do you want to make? What did you learn going around the track as a driver?

Very cool!
No adjustments at all yet. The car was aligned and corner balanced beautifully by Chewerks. I just need a ton of seat time before my skills surpass the current set up, to be honest. I ran in the novice group and glad I did. Learned all the Do's and Don't's of being on track, flags, etiquette, etc. I'm going to do my best to run all 9 HFF Challenge events and class up by the third event. I'll post more as I go along.

The past 5 days I changed the head, and put on coilovers and suspension pieces and new wheels. Today I'm rolling the fenders slightly and adjusting the valves

what coil overs you go with? Any pics would be appreciated!
91 CRX Si, B16a. I have had it for .. 10 years now, but finally in a place to start restoring it. Working on the chassis and body first, then working on the powerplant. Hoping to boost.
Ordered the replacement panels and gutted interior so far. Salvage title when I bought it, front end deer. So i need the frame pulled back out a bit

I have Yonaka basic coilovers because I got them used with a ton of other parts. The spring rates are 12/6 (roughly 675/325) and the front is just way too stiff so I ordered a pair of 450lb front springs to change them out. I wouldn't buy them new, but they are surprisingly decent to drive on. Not painful and greatly reduced body roll. I really think they need an 8/6 rate not a 12/6 rate though
I decided not to use the skunk2 upper control arms because my stock arms are in great shape.
Hey all,
Just a reminder, when swapping alternators on an ef with a d series.Remove the oil filter and remove top fasteners on left front shock to allow the alternator to come out from the bottom. My 55 year old brain forgot the shock drop to allow clearance with the half shaft. After about an hour fiddle farting around, I remembered.
Regards

New climate control, as the slider that selects where the air comes out has not worked for about 18 months.
Installed the bracket that supports the front of the center console, in front of the gear shifter (I never put it back in when I did my auto-to-manual swap about 10 years ago).
Well, major change today, got a set of VW P-Slots with tires on the hatch today!
Also got a PM5 ecu (have to do an idle relearn on it), a new dome light off a wagon (also where my ECU came from) and what look like decent condition DPFI injectors.
Tomorrow we will strip out the plastics in the rear interior and maybe swap out some injectors
Yesterday on my 1988 Civic hatch DX, 213000 miles:
1). Installed new steering rack, inner tie rods, and outer tie rods.
2). Installed new compressor, dryer, condenser, sucked down, and recharged with R134. Have 40 degree center vent temps with 90 degree ambient.
3(. Installed new hood pull cable. The one on Amazon is a great product. Could not tell difference from OEM. Did not come with the plastic holder clips though.
