ok i have a crx that is a project car dont drive it all 2 much stricly a toy umm what do u say i should do rims and tires suspention then motor ,motor rims then suspention all at the same time what would u do and i need a new door and paintjob

 

Well, if it's your "toy" i guess do the motor work first. That's what I would do with a non-daily driver. You can leave it out of commission for a while so it's no big deal. Then work suspension and get wheels. Then do the paint and body to finish it off. If you're not driving it around while the work is being done, don't worry about looks until it hauls first.

But, it's up to your preference really, if you plan on doing it all then order doesn't matter. What are your engine plans might I ask?

 

i was saveing 4 a b18c1 gsr motor then turbo so like 5000 at least but i decided a b16 vtec turbo should haul enough 4 a 16 year old i daily drive a mazda 6 and the thing is if i get the motor and a swap then i would have no traction and i wont b able to turn lol and i need to have it running bye a week after x mass

 

most b series swaps won't effect your steering much. You're doing your suspension so there should be no problem. If you don't have a 90-91 si then I would recommend getting rear disc breaks from one or from an integra (don't know years off top of head). If you did a h22 swap or something then you would have bad steering and braking.

looks are the last thing you should take car of. my car is primer gray now..and i'm in the middle of moulding my kit so its looks god-awful and my front bumper is off. but..its still quick. so screw paint, rust, etc. in my eyes. do your drivetrain first and whatever other parts you need for it to run good/fast. hell, just tell people its a sleeper and you have it looking bad on purpose. Then I'd get rims before suspension, because a lot matters on the size of your wheel/tire package. So its good to know that before buying 1,000 in suspension only to limit you to a 16inch rim

you dont daily drive a mazda 6. your mom owns a mazda 6 which you daily borrow. I think you dont know enough about motors and their respective power to weight ratio's. Do some research, there's a ton of threads on here talking about how said motor is good in this car due to the weight distribution, etc.

ohh man thats good stuff... that made me laugh pretty hard

 

I &lt;3 punctuation.

 

well first thing you got to decide is it all for show and no go.... since you said its a toy

second are you making all for go and no show....

or last ...both

then determine how much you want to spend and from there you create a budget...

I've seen it. It looks gay. Don't do it.

 

all im gona say is this:
I posted a thread about a CRX on ebay, that was in pieces, because a 16yr old bought it, spray painted the whole thing (destroyed it) took it apart, got a motor for it.. and they sold it all on ebay... completely disassembled.. lol is yours next?

And traction wont be an issue if you KNOW HOW TO DRIVE lol.

and that daily borrow was sooo funny gj

That car is on ebay right now, 5 days to go, pearl white, in colorado. search it

 

here is the order I would do it in
-suspension (which may or may not include wheels, if it does they will be 14s, 15s, at max 16s.)
-brakes
-engine
-paint

 

that is really not what i was talking about, the one that is on ebay is a convertable top all i'm taking about is the trunk lid that has been modified.

tell me how to put a picture up and i will show you what I mean.
