Default mild track car build (Canada)

Well here's not a story you hear of too often. I owned a 1988 crx (jdm) back in gr12 (6years ago), it had a problem something was sending power back to the alternator and blew the battery, with having no job I sold the car for $1000 more then I paid ($1500) after only 3 weeks of owning it. It was the only car I've ever regretting selling.


Needless to say I bought the car back 5 years later from the same guy I sold it to! Not much was done, he did buy brand new Megan coilovers, Megan lower control arms, and (some brand of upper controls arms) haven't checked yet, I bought it back as a rolling shel, with the intent of doing some bodywork and cleaning up all the rust, on the way home my buddy had texted me, had the chance to buy his cousins mustang and needed his civic sedan sold, told me $1200 (came with b18c type r swap, black recaros, spoon strut bar, mugen pedals, some exhaust) and other bits and pieces I couldn't refuse. I bought his car the next day and now I have a fairly stable plan to build a B18c Type R auto x/ drag car.

More pics to come, progress will be slow as I got laid off my job 3 weeks ago! But I did manage to pick up a roll bar for the car

All power options were taking out, going to a more basic racecar with manual windows/mirrors no heater no a/c
