Default 1 point 6, nah its a 1 point 8

I recently sold my CRX on Saturday at 6pm...so by 10pm I had my new project. 95 LS, with some bolt ons. Plans will include a gaggle of JDM flair and not really sure about the motor yet, c5 or turbo. I wasnt planning on getting an integra, I wanted a EG coupe. But this was posted on a local board and the guy lived across the street, so I jumped on it. Picked it up for $3400.

Some pics.

After I collected the cash for the CRX


Car in question, a little faded, a little rough.



Took it home that night, threw my wheels on it. 16x7 Lenso VPDs 14lbs.

That them thurr some oil burnin

Gave her a bath

Busted out the TR3 and polished the **** out of it...

Its the MATRIX. CF hood came out a little better, gonna wetsand and clear it.

Mirror finish...


Going to wash it and wax it this week and take some day pics. These ones dont do it any justice. Good start to a new project.

Thanks for the comments

The CRX needed a bunch of AC work, including a new climate control. I'm in ARIZONA too, so I need that ****. I went 4 years and 5 cars with no AC, so I'm glad its back.

I loved the CRX to death, it was soooo fun, but I can have fun in this too.

Thanks for the compliments.

Damn that thing is clean after you were done with it and I think those wheels really do complement the car.

agreed. i'm thinking if the guy who sold it to you had cleaned it up a bit, the asking price could have been a bit higher!

nice find. best of luck with it.
