SUPER DUPER UPDATES!!!!!!!

MORE NEW UPDATES ON PAGE 6!!! YAY!!!!


Ok,

This is really my first big post here on HT. But i think everyone enjoy's seeing redone crx's.

Firstly this IS NOT a money,sponsored car, this car was built by my hands,my money,my time.The build has been pretty slow going considering i am married,have a daughter,and have bills to pay but one good thing is my house is payed for.This car may not be for everybody but its what i want and what i enjoy.

Here is a small time-line as i wont go into great detail, I have owned he car for going on 8 years now.It started life as an 89 Hf and when i bought it it had 83,000 original miles on the clock and wasn't so bad to start out with.The car went through minor changes the first year or so such as intake,exhaust,short shifter,nothing drastic. then i parked the car for a while and swore i would never drive it again till it was the way i wanted it. Fast forward a couple years and the car has been through couple swaps (stock CRX SI motor) then to a DOHC Zc,the to a boosted ZC, which brings it to its current condition.Working on a semi built LS/Vtec pushing for 200 WHP,but we will see what happens.

Somewhat of a mod list

KYB AGX shocks (all 4 corners)

Old boosted ZC


PIC of the motor in its home to get the car towed to my new place


Then once i got moved i cam across something i could not pass up.I finally got my CRX SIR front end!! Which i was using at the time 90-91 front end with a VIS SIR CF hood..

Kind of fitting the front end


Doing some different valve cover options besides the plain redone GSR wrinkle VC i have



I think i am going to rock the pink one for a while...

Ok on to the tear down







Like i said im not going into super detail

Primer





Painted Chasis (went back to original B-47M) Superior Blue just because noone represents it anymore!!!





Now onto the fully assembled rear of the car..







And my Daughter REPRESENTING!!!!


This car has NOT and will Not be wetsanded and buffed as i dont want the show car shine as it isnt a show car. This car was built to drive and have fun with and i wanted that OEM showroom floor look..

I have left out a bunch of PICS of the process but this was just to get this started and i will keep you guys updated as i go and fill everything in when i update,and get the car further along in the reassembly process.

I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I enjoy sharing it with you..

Nice build, good choice on the color

Nice transformation!!!

 

nice rebuild...i like the colors you choice for the car and the vc's.

 

Yea the shaved cover is painted with some DUPONT Firestorm or something i had lying around. Its a color change paint and the pink cover is done with candy left over from one of my stepdads projects..the pink looks SUPER HOT up against the superior blue..
