Seeing as how im getting a house with a garage within the next week, the CRX will be getting MUCH more attention. As of now the car has an unknown starting problem and has been sitting immobile in our apartment parking lot for over two months, i figure the engine needs a rebuild anyway. I will also be upgrading the brakes and suspension. The body is also going to be completely redone and i may throw in another goodie that ill keep under wraps for now ph34r.gif .

I also need to fix/replace my jacked up half-ass ricer mods.

Some newer pics:





Look for picture intensive updates in the coming weeks (and yes aren d's build did a good bit to inspire me).

I'd like to have it done in time for next years big CRX meet (wherever that may be).

enjoy,

Well, it'll go slower than yours and some parts may actually stay on the car......and "the super build" was already taken biggrin.gif .

how about the sorta supa build? Or the alright build or the kinda good build, or built well, Its more ketchy than mine project: whatever I can get my hands on cause I can't seem to wait till I got it together build. (doesn't exactly roll of the tongue). But you could call it fart in a jar build (imagine the hits you'ld have then.

The entire tool selection at Sears or the contents of a Snap-On truck will do you no good if you do not know how to use them.

it's not the starter, i'm 99% sure it's a timing issue (and i did try push starting it smile.gif ). But it's been using more oil lately and ive been aching for an excuse to tear into the motor.
