definatly a brake caliper adapter plate.. so we can use 2000 civic calipers and rotors... that would be sick

also masta... jakob and i are gonna need some serious welding... i don't know if your interested but our turbo set up will be almost complete near summer time... we might need some custom welding for a down pipe and some charge pipes.. we could pay you for doin it....

adjustable pan hard bar...

ooo and does anyone know if there are some coilovers that work for later cars.. i heared some one putting on some coilovers from a 89 civic on there 1g teg..

also some thing to get rid of the lower rad suport and replace it with a lighter tubular pipe? loose some more weight in the front... he he....

just some ideas.. i am sure i will think of more..

No problem Chris, any welding you boys need done, we'll take care of you, for a very small fee. As far as a Hydra motor, I can't see us doing that, gtpilot has done the legwork and if you are interested in that motor, I would contact him. I think a basic turbo setup is certainly feasable, I am surprised at how many people are interested, the thing is, who is giong to have the money when the time comes. I would like to put something together for around 1000$, it would use rebuilt, and gently used parts, but would certainly get most of you well on your way to a reliable/boosted CRX/Civic. I have a ton of ideas for parts, and am excited to maybe build some of this stuff, I guess if worse comes to worse, it just ends up on mine and Tom's car, and the rest of you can drool But seriously, this is a fun topic for me, keep the feedback rollin', I can't wait for Tom to chime in, he's usually the realist in these situations, so I am really looking forward to his opinion.
The big brake kit would most likely consist of 88-91 Si calipers/rotors/pads and steel braided lines for the front. I'm not positive they fit under 13's, but I have the 87-89 Teg brakes on my car and they fit under the 13's no problem.

the tegs fit under 13's but it's realy tight. like 1mm .... or so.


as for turbo... maybe a exhaust manifold for a t3 or a IHI turbo... preferably for the integra motor and the crx motor.

and a down pipe... that would be enough in the kit...

[Kurutchi]

Not to be a bugger or anything but a lot of these already exist.


Camber/caster plates with integral strut tower bar. (I saw some once cant remember where)

Adjustable Panhard bar. (Think i saw them somewhere have to check)

Cold air intake for Si/ZC. (Can easely make it ur self or fit one from another)

Short Shifter. (DC headers, Pacesetter makes them)

Semi-affordable turbo kit. (Afordable and Turbo dont match)

All-in-one Big brake upgrade kit. (FastBrakes have a kit)

All-in-one D16A1/ZC swap kit. (Hassports have a direct drop B18 kit,not the same but)

Crazy custom fabbed whatamacallits. (Dont have a clue what u mean)

DC sports style header. (Look up DC they make them)

Manifold/header/turbo back exhaust (Get another engine manifold and fit it,Headers exist,and u can fit any turbo exhaust)



If ur looking for anything let me know il try and find it and if not make it.

Gotta go with Brakes, Shifter, Panhard Bar:)

[rpr]

FYI, we already make and sell an adjustable panhard bar. $125 US plus shipping, stainless steel bar, Aurora rod ends, washers, jam nuts, spacers all included.

I can see the combo camber/caster/strut bar being doable, plus the short shifter, and perhaps a plate to use B series throttle bodies. I'd love to do some more suspension stuff as well.

what we really need (if possible) is a mount kit for the later D-series motor. light weight motor combo., availibility, infinite aftermarket support, and cheap......anyone with me on this one?

[Dan-O]

I'm doin' the turbo thing right now, so I didn't vote for that.

My two thoughts right now....
-High flow intake manifold that would accept a B motor TB, not just an adapter
or
-Afforable Steel B series motor mounts. I bet you'd sell out of the first run of those.

[izzy87si]

i think i take one of everything . Though i'm mainly be intrested in the D16/ZC swap kit and the turbo.

[DarkHand]

also a carbon fiber hood for my 87 hatch would be great!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah I forgot about that... Not a carbon fiber hood, but...

Someone REALLY needs to make a mold of a ZC hood.

[Dan-O]

Say Tom,
If you do go with a turbo project, get in touch with Sam the guy that made my adapter. Maybe you can work out a deal with him?

Check out the thread about putting a turbo on my '87, I posted pics and his address there.
Thanks,
