Icon7 World's oldest ricer...

I turn 53 at the end of the month, and have owned a USDM CRX Si since 1996. 14 years ago, at 304K, she spun a rod bearing. Bought an SiR swap...and life hit me. In the ensuing 14 years, my swap, minus the long block at my house, was stolen.

I figure it is cheaper to start over than replace what was taken. Looking at doing an SiRII swap this time, but putting the OBD0 stuff from the long block on it and run the PW0.

Welcome. I look forward to seeing your CRX brought back to life


Rotten luck about your swap being stolen.... haven't heard of that happening before. Someone must've known exactly what they were getting. But now you are starting fresh and can do any swap you choose! Ya know, a B18 with bolt ons and a tune can be a lot of fun....

Welp, I WAS the world's oldest ricer...

Then I saw this;

70 years old, 2015 Si, doesn't have enough power, so in it goes for a snail supercharger...

Anyway, here is what my project looks like now..





.

Dead branch as big as my leg fell on it, creasing the cowl, and compromising the lower windshield seal.


Engine shot...




14 years as a squirrell and mouse house.... Nephew stole my MSD box and Cap, little *******. Note the pry bar damage to the radiator....
