Default crx budget project

I have been workin on my car for a while just taking my time and doing things right

First off this is how I bought the car







then I took off the paint in the interior...I plan on getting carpet..I bought the oem side skirts I have a front bumper and also should have a rear bumper soon...all oem..I painted the engine bay black and put in a b16 but still dont have it running yet..not to long till its running


the rims I want to get


not bolted on just sitting there to see how it would look



thats how I bought the header I sanded it down and polished...to get it how it looks sitting on the engine

I also put in a stage 3 clutch and lightened flywheel and I also plan on getting a cheap intake off ebay and getting a good filter somewhere

Tell me what you think

Light flywheel Clutch . I got a stage 1 excedy and its pretty worthless. The clutch is twice as heavy as stock and half the slip point. For daily driving, use a stock clutch.

He said its a project not a daily driver. Build it right
I got a 4 puck unsprung. That thing is great and it will hold anything you throw at it. I think at this stage of working on cars, driver comfort is no more
