Well for some time now i have been building a 2.0l LS vtec. I finally found a chassis to put it into several weeks ago. its what i have always wanted, an 88 CRX HF in great shape. picked her up for $500 and she runs and gets GREAT gas mileage I will be taking her from stock to "fully" built in the next few weeks/months as i try an transform her into a NA beast. this will be a long thread so ill update it with as many pics as possible.

heres the Chassis: 1988 CRX HF
Mine is on the Left, JohnZM is on the right (old pic)

*UPDATE* 9-13-2005

got my OmniPower Suspension put on and got a carbon Fiber hood. also changed the wheels up with some i had laying around. im trying to get some Rotas or Fat Fives but its being a pain in the *** to find a set. Ill update when i get the wheels i want on the car. for now its 16s in the back and 13s up front y0!



OmniPowers through the rear wheel


SLAMMED




Carbon Fiber ZC hood


*** end, love that Stock exhaust


Next im installing my Sparco Seat and my Harness and roll cage.

 

I am sending the HUGE Boostfed Racing Stickers for the rear hatch!!! lolololol!

 

sounds/looks good, nice choice with the n/a

 

Nice, Cant wait to see it done

 

u got any pics of how low it will get to in the front, thinkin about gettin those, but want to go low

 

nice project u got goin on. i wish i could find an 88hf.

 

what rims are those, they are hot
waht coilovers did you get for the rear (88 crx lca) are you useing itr rear coilovers?

 

honestly i dont know they were just laying around the hop, they came off a friends Civic.

I have the Omni 88 EF sport setup. so the rear is the non fork setup unlike the 89+ EF.

everythign fit like a glove, these are the new 10mm collars as well.

 

how they ride? i have skunk2 coilovers and was looking to go omni powers

and if u got four of those rims, ill buy em

 

They ride really nice , a little bouncy but enjoyable, its hard to see how they handle cause i only have 64 FLYWHEEL HP on tap right now

i have all 4 wheels, once i find something else to ride on that is my style ill let you know

 

so is that the absolute lowest that they go?

 

in the front, YES, in the rear HELL NO.

the front i might be able to get another .5in out of. but the strut is shortened all the way. the new 10mm collars kinda prohibit it from being SLAMMED on the ground. but remember those are 13in wheels in the front, the 16s are tucked nicely.

with a B series motor that weighs 80lbs more, it should drop a little more

 

yeah im kinda undecided, i like to the slammed look and want the omnis, just wondering how it would be

 

240whp +1800lbs on slicks should = high-mid 11's. This seems like its going to be a nice project and a very long thread lol. One question, how were you able to get ahold of those Pro 3 cams? arent those only released to race teams? good luck.
