If you look at my thread please leave some feedback good or bad I have 171 hits and 1 post wow

The rebirth of my former H Series nitrous CRX now B Turbo

I built a CRX 3 years ago and did so much racing with it but due to me having to run from the cops I melted a valve and had a B series swap so I said to myself I will just rebuild my car with that.

Having an H Series in a CRX can be a headache with having to have custome radius arms made to clear the engine and needing DSS axles plus the fab work of having the mounts welded in the right way so they didnt break.

All tuning props go out to Bubba at Do It Dyno
Most of the Chassis work was done at Steen Chassis

Here is a pics to start:

I cant seem to find anypics when the H Series was installed I will look on my other PC.

I had to strat by putting a empty block and case in the car to get the mount made since I cut off the stock passenger mount a custome one had to be made to utilize the Innovative H Series bracket that I had welded in.

Motor sitting in with the new custom mounts I didnt get a close up but the frame started cracking so if you notice by the passenger side the frame had to be reinforced

I wanted some extra stability for the intercooler so I went with some solid stock and chromoly tubing to make an upper brace for the intercooler:
