I'm sure that rated to the crank, impressive nonetheless. The article says no vtec??? weird...

Durst may have some serious competition this season...

It doesn't have vtec because it doesn't use the small lobes on the cams. It makes for a lot lighter of a valvetrain this way and it doesn't need the small cam for driveability anyways.

 

The car did make that power hard to belive, but ya to the wheels?? yes to that also....that CRX has been put away for now future plan it to Turbo charge it..
also that same motor in the CRX is the same motor that he runs in the coupe just, the crx dose have Vtec and the Coupe dosent...there Toda Vtec Killers Spec "D"

 

why the hell are they using the gsr im?

 

THAT article was in march 04.that car only made acouple of passes down the track last season.

 

One of my favorite race cars, will it ever be back on the track again?

Because he can make the stock manifold produce more low end toque than a XXXL volume manifold can....its more about the flow and velocity

Those Toda D's are no joke...
I was testing waters playing around with an allmotor car,95mmstroke 86mm bore,mildly ported head, yada yada yada...The first pass without touching the cam gears and conservative timing the car made 272whp,once the car heated up it made consecutivly 264...never got to fine tune it,it was like 11 at night so they threw us off the dyno,car was too loud

 

what ever happened to this car??

i think the crx is going to be sold....

i hope he brings the coupe out next year with a k-series. We need more folks like Erick out there racing.

You can make great power with the gsr manifold. Eric's was not extrusion honed but it was internally modified somewhat. It used 2 butterfly plates with no butterflys, of course. Eric also modified that manifold to fit a b16 head. BTW, Eric just opened a dyno shop, I think in Lynwood CA.

 

The manifold has more done to it then just taking out the butterfly's. The entire center section has been cut out so it is 1 big open manifold.

 

I hope he comes back out with his coupe and a K series next year. He is a good competitor and the class needs him.

365whp on a B series...and at 127mph....sure guys We all saw his car on the dyno when it was running 134...the power wasn't exactly a secret and it wasn't anywhere close to that.

 

The Talk around the camp fire here at Ericks Racing is that "No" the Crx is not for sell it just has future plans....Norman's Crx is for SELL...New project for him..Project Insight ....
