man the more i look at DTR's drag civic, the more i want to build a semi tubbed honda road race car. his car weights sub 1600 lbs with him in it!!

does anybody know how the old 1st gen crx GT(4?) weight? i need to talk to doug peterson.

 

CRX 1.3 84-87 1342 cc = 1780lb
CRX 1.5 84-87 1488 cc = 1900lb
Both with a single 45mm carb. 1.5 can run OEM FI.


And just for fun:

GT3
CRX 88-91 1493 cc = 1980lb
CRX Si 88-91 1590 cc = 1980lb

Dual 45mm carbs, but Si has to run 42mm restrictors.

 

ahh what the hell. we'll just make it a super unlimited car.

 

Carl from Tracracing (bbqman on here) is selling his semi-tube wide body 87 CRX last I heard... Looks like a wild ride... IM him if interested...

 

screw bbqman... he's been ignoring me... hit me up carl.

 

Ignoring who? and screw me why?

And yes , the silver bullet is for sale.

 

Ahhhhhh now I know your identity.........
DUDE, how's it going????

long time no speak!!! Still being a car *****! hehe
BTW, the details on my race car are simple 87CRX si, transplanted ZC Mugen motor. Mugen head including cams and hardware, Wiesco, Carillos, Mikunis, Mugen intake, Mugen pan ( yes the 3500$ one) Electromotive, Mugen LSD, Houseman final drive. Mugen dampers and torsions. sphericals, Autometers ,Wilwoods etc

it is a semi tube, runs on slicks has had 200whp and now detuned to 160whp. it weighed 1750 at the time.

 

hey man when are you guys going to run a mt. tremblant or mosport hit me up i want to run those tracks. :-) let me know ok???

ohh **** the car sounds pretty sick. how much is it? 200 whp are you drunk?! how can a 1.6 zc make that much power?? ohh wait i guess it is possible. does the motor last at 200 whp?

ohh btw i read the driving school manul you gave me. excellent job!! good stuff. so have you been kicking butt with the koni shocks?

 

The last time I ran it at +-200 whp , it blew sky high . In 1998 I rebuilt it with the above mentioned parts , did the whole season and won the championship .....it was ultra reliable but at 160whp. It is presently in storage and hasn't run on a track since 2000 ( I go get groceries with it from time to time). I haven't the time to run it and it is looking for a home.

try this website to check Tremblant dates...www.lecircuit.com and yes those Konis are kick ***...we'll see for real in Topeka.

hope to see you sometime soon

BBQman

 

do you have any online pix of the crx... i'd love to take a look. 1750 with or with out you in it?

 

Hey you slacker, what the hell have you been doing lately? How's the ITR? Have you got rid of the 88 CRX? I'm hot and heavy back into autocross again.

Hit me up some time so we can chat.
