Default My EF'N Build thread!

1989 crx dx.. I purchased it in a lil tough shape..interior was okay..engine wouldnt start at all... soooo away we went with mr flat bed...

Radiator is shot to ****..all the fins are corroding
Drivers side door..a mess bondo and fiberglass galore
drivers side fender...bondo tastic
rear qaurters where the usual rust is..bondo tastic!
engine bay is filthy
interior is filthy but workable. brakes are pretty much rusted to poop
oil pan hole and broken studs
broken header studs
just rust cleansing!


soooo...plans
b16 swap with skunk 2 goodies
tein suspension
upgrade the brakes
street roll cage
password jdm recaro's
some nice mugen wheels

I want to make a car thats streetable but still can pull some nice runs down the strip..maybe 13's or low 12's...undecided about boost..i want it..but ehh. i might go all motor.

onto the pics!

New Valve Cover, mugen oil cap, ebay headers w/highflow cat



i need a new front rebar..got one?

real mugen shift ****

shitty ebay wheel w/quick release..it sucks by the way




im using 91 si doors to replace my old fiberglass and bondo ones!


I will keep this updated as soon as i get more done...

This weekend..im picking up new wheels, cf hood, tokico's, I ordered a new pace setter exhaust..YAY!!!!!

anyone has any ideas other than dont spend money on a slow d15b2...please post
the d15 is good on gas..once i get this guy runnin mint...probably in july ill do the ole b16..or 18...not sure..all depends on the finances.
