hey peeps, another aussie crx to hit the pages.

so i've owned 6 of these now so i thought i'd go all the way with one and clean everything, make sure there was no rust etc... reason i've owned 6, well i've been overseas a few too many times and always come back wanting another but this one i'll keep
The green thing next to it.... well, thats the abortion that i bought for parts. It's got a B16 in it that will be placed in the shell. trust me it wont look anything like that.... thing!
Most of the work i'll be doing myself, along with painting etc.

Let me know what you guys think...

 

more pics...

 

as you can see the car has been painted way to many times....

the shell is quite straight and now has no rust, the belly will be getting sprayed hopefully today and the bushes for it should arrive today too so i can spray up all my suspension and put that back in.
total outcome though, i just want a clean crx, one that i can drive whenever my 05 Max get's boring.

It's not getting painted on the outside, instead i'll be vinyl wrapping it matte black (like the dubai cars and all the lambo's etc in America) reason being no-one does it here and i'll be starting a business from it.

enjoy! pz

 

looking forward to seeing the final product..

Wow. How did you get the belly so clean?

 

high pressure cleaner for a good 20 mins.. with some degreaser too

 

Looking great so far.

 

nice

 

Should have left it that pimp *** green lol................loooking good can't wait for updates

 

in to see the progress

 

nice work!

 

Now that's a restoration job! very nice

 

Those were some pretty sweet dubs on the green machine lol. Project looks awesome man, keep it up

 

those dubs are 17's.... not my kinda thing either but damn some kids dont know how to modify a car properly

 

haha yea 17's on a little crx looks disgusting imo

 

Wow! looking good

 

im confused i thought the crx was discontinued in 91? did aussis get'em in 92 as well?

 

there were a couple of 92s made throughout the world

 

they were made up until May 92, the abortion (green thing) is a Nov 87, so i have the oldest and the newest.

 

What engine you going with?

 

i have a B16a1 from an siR... it hasnt got any work done to it yet as im concentrating on getting the car back on the road..... then i'll turbo it down the track once i get bored of it.

few more pics from tonight. I hear you all go "eww yellow", but it's easier to see sh*t on the inside should you drop anything while changing parts... plus i had alot of it left from other cars, so i didnt cost me anything either.

 

thats a cleannn shell! good luck with the project!

 

sickkk
i wish i could repaint my whole car like that lol
good job goodluck with the build but i think that desrves a B18R type R or a k-t

 

thanks people!
i was originally going to put a K in it.... i just want it on the road for now, then i'll see what happens when i get bored with the B16.

i got some more pics....
