The Honda City EF in Japan had one... 1.3L VTEC, I'm sure there was a CRX that had one over there too.

It's running a B18C5 fully prepped for Road racing with Jenvey injection. Suspension is completely redesigned too. Custom control arms, 6 puck calipers etc. We run it in SCCA events.

I just finished the molds a couple of weeks ago, this is the first car it's gone on. The rear mold is actually the whole rear section from the "B" pillar back including the hatch. It's actually originally designed for SCCA's GT class, but would look great on other projects.

good job, the lines are very clean. I assume you are very competent at fiberglass work?

The fellow I use is a composite expert, unlike many products out there the fit on this is very good.

Not all cars are full tubed, for example the one in the picture still has most of the tub. So for the rear we can pull just the fenders if one wants. The molds are set up to outfit a full tube car which is what we are in the process of building.
