Default i guess ill start my build thread 91hf

well i guess its time for me to start my build up.. i traded my 250r for a realy decent 91 crx hf rolling shell. it came with skunk 2 pro s coilovers and blox lower control arms.. integra front and rear disc brakes.. stainless steel brake lines front and rear. zc carbon fiber hood and i belive their da integra seats.. i picked up a ls and cables trans along with motor mounts and shiftlinkage. still debating on what im going to run either ls turbo or ls vtec all motor...

here some pictures to get it started.. maybe ill get motovated to get it done faster with this posting..







heres some pictures of the b16 trans when i pulled it apart to but new bearing in it








cars still sitting atwork my garage isnt ready to workout of it yet so ill probly start on the car here then move it to the garage when its finished..
heres a picture of the garage from a month ago.. it now has the ceiling finished and the ground is smoothed and leveled.. its a 40x60 pole building with 16ft ceiling

Im jealous of your workshop / garage! if that B16 tranny is still apart you might want to think about putting in a bigger 5th gear if you do alot of freeway driving.. im sure you have seen the threads.. i love my b16 but I feel bad being in mid3 low4 RPMs on the freeway all the time.. Nice start overall!!!

im not exactly sure what condition your hood is in, but if your looking for a way to keep that one and really don't like the look of hood pins you could possibly try aero catch pins. pretty much flush mount, alot cleaner than 95% of others out there
