So I started in the Honduh world with my 91 CRX si and she has come a long way....from a stock D16a6 to her present B18b and soon to boosted B18b >:D I'll just post some pics and list the specs...

Looks like a fun project. Definitely looks like a sleeper with the three tone paint.... Good Luck with the build.

 

Thanks...everyone says to flat black it but its kind of grown on me being red/blue/white/black/maroon... has that "what a piece" effect but is and will be extremely fast...

best time so far was a 15.3 with bad plugs wires and ingtion timing should be in the 14s now and hoping for atleast mid 12s with boost

 

Looks like a sweet project other than the multi-colored paint the car looks cherry too. Turbo ZC's are preety neat setups, you should check out Azulito's CRX. One of the cleanest ZC turbo CRXes I've seen. Basides that Allan is a really cool guy.

 

No ZC here thats a big ol B18b , but i'll still check out Azulito's CRX, I like all CRXs

 

mid 12s is being kinda generous dont you think?

Oh snap I saw exposed cam gears and thought it was a ZC. LOL For me. I should have looked better. That will actually be even better yet. How much boost are you gonna run? Might want to build that bottom end.

 

I don't think thats unreasonable 250-300 hp in CRX with a good suspension shouldn't be to much of a problem as long as I get the traction....My friends 94 civic si ran high 12s with an ls turbo setup with around 250hp seems like a reasonable goal

 

well looking to run 14psi daily and turni it up a little bit for the track...I have another block i am going to be building but I'd rather boost it first and have fun, I have 2 other cars right now so if its blows up it blows up

I can relate. BTW if you need an extra block and crank I got one sitting on an engine stand at my shop. You can never have enough spares.

 

**** man if you ask me i love it, its got the muti-color look and nobody wold exspect it to be boosting or push out anykind of power. o yea and i love you suspension set up, i got kinda the same sept i got skunk2 coilovers. nice ride and good luck wit the turbo

 

that radiator is just too ghetto fabulous for me

 

I'm a true believer in hmt set ups and have seen some impressive numbers but 14 psi "daily" + more at the track is pushing it. I have seen LS's take some abuse but a stock block taking more than 15 psi is where you are going to run into problems. When people rave about SR20's being the ideal turbo motor and they cut off at 15 psi stock and thats with a cast iron block! I honestly think 14 psi daily will end that motors life early.

Yea i was there, thats was a cool meet, my friends black Turbo Ls teg was right next to mine, his car is bad *** and mine made his look so much nicer

 

Got some more goodies in the mail in the past 2 weeks ;D



JK Motorsports Traction bar
PCM 1/2 rad slim fan and new hoses
JRC 6" FMIC
And some flanges to make a mani and DP

I think all I need is my 2.5" piping for my IC piping and some 3" for my DP along with some silicone and T-bolt clamps

 

coming along.


keep us updated. sounds like a lot of fun.

 

is ur radiator ziptied?? lol

 

that looks like his old radiator....


look at the other pictures, he has an aluminum one now.


i'm sure he'll build a quality machine when its all said and done.

 

i know..i just thought that was funny

 

we all got secrets of ghetto-rigged cars from the past.

 

Its always good to see, PA boys. Its strange but I never really knew their were so many hondas in your area. I guess that whole boyertown/pottstown area has a lot of hondas. Anyway keep us updated on the project, by the way you are missing the engine mount bolt on the right hand side. Hopefully its in their by now.
