well it looks like I am done for awile but I will be back with more modifications later!

Looks awesome! Keep us updated

Looks awesome!

What kind of powerplant do you have in that thing, anyway? Or is it super-secret?

Only thing negative I can say is that you have too much sidewall, maybe a lower profile 14" tire or move up to 15"s, but treadwear 100? Awesome.

Looks great, lots of goodies on that machine!

Cheers,
Mark

I think the tires look PERFECT! So mean, meaty, and capable looking and performing (I'm sure)!

Bet if he sprayed some tire gloss on them, the appearance would change dramatically, as it would "hide" some of that extra width.

Funkmaster has the same width on his MR5's, and I think they look great too!

Rampage, can definitely see what you mean as well though, as we are typically not used to seeing larger width tires on mag cars, or ANY 14" rims for that matter. Much love for 14's!

Thanks guys, and rampage like you said the side wall is a bit large... but these tires will be worn out in a month tops lol so I will be looking for some new 14's. but going with 15's may not be a bad idea, it is a stock si motor right now... but kirk(gtpilot) did some work for me awile back and I never got around to posting what is going on w/ that...

anyway I am prepareing for something. but I am not sure when because I dont want to down this car for too long and have in end up like my other CRX, that I think I gave up on...

installed Wide ban o2 today... something is going on... the water temp is also installed but its just a space saver untill I get an exhaust temp gague...



But really I need to stop working on this car right now... I am moving and need to drive it to CO friday!!!

also thanks og wagon for being my biggest fan!

And I installed some black body molding finally... I may still do red.

total super duper badassedness!! (yes that is a word)


hey what 5 spokes are those you had on it?

I think they are momo star wheels, I am not sure tho... I need to do some research and see if they are.

The car looks fantastic, and all this with "spare" parts basically. I dig the 911 hiding back there as well

Ok update. I have been in denver for about 2 weeks

soooo quad webers?


J/k I just sold the ew weber set and now the d16a1 of furry is going to be built. I need to choose a camshaft set up though? what is a good gind for 40mm webers and 11.5 cr? mostly street duty but I wont be sorry if it idels like crap... I didnt choose a 1g crx for it luxuray after all. Anyone with suggestions?

engine credit where credit is due: airgazim awesome powder coat on valve cover!, gtpilot awesome head build and hook up with the race carbs.

some of the highlites for the engine head build: os valves, welded fuel injector notches for port matched IM, Full Port and valve job, race valves and valve springs/ TI retainers

I will get some shots of the block as soon as I get it back again... its built.

oooooooo, yummy

Any one notice anything unusual in this picture?

Kirk

no casting marks? extra long bolts holding the valve cover on?
and it dosnt look very ported compared to the head sitting next to me
