Default My CRX Build

Well finaly started the CRX. i got it for $150(shell) and the motor for $300(extreeeeemmmmeeellllyyyy cheap!). Then this fallowing weekend im going to get the role cage, and get it welded in by a local welder. Right after hes done, its going to be taken to the body shop, Hopefully it will be in there by saturday. The guy is a family friend and will be fixing all the rust and sanding everything down and painted it black.

So far here’s a list of parts that I’ve gotten or parts that I need.
THINGS I HAVE:
B18c1(86k)
JDM GSR tranny with LSD
89CRX SI shell
HX rims
Better condition SI wiring harness(front to back)
HKS BOV
Profec B boost controller
HKS turbo timer

PLANS FOR MOTOR:
Its going to a machine shop to get a small overbore, honed and hot tanked and soon after glass beater or whatever its called
CP Pistons-9:1
Eagle Rods
ARP hardware
New bearings
OEM head gasket
CTR cams
Oil pump
Water pump
Timing belt
Mild P&P on the head
Fidanza lightweight flywheel
Not sure which clutch yet…. Still getting some research.

TURBO SETUP:
Custom Ramhorn Manifold or maybe a top mount manifold
38MM wastegate
Garrett GT28r or GT30R
2.5 IC pipping
Decent sized Intercooler
Walbro 190
550cc Injectors
2.5 inch exaust for DD and at low boost(Thinking 5PSI for Daily driven) and a 3 inch electric cutout.
ENGINE MANAGEMENT:
Convert to OBD1
P28
Hondata S300

Anyone want to contribute to maybe what else I can add?
Heres a few pics. nothing major but the interior is mostly stripped already and i already took of the taillights and pretty much anything that can come off has been taken off.
