This car first entered my life a few years back,
when my brother bought a minty clean black 87 crx si.
After that it got the usual d16a1 engine swap. After this the car was driven for a little while and sat for a long time.
Then, my brother bought a turbo kit off of CrxDan. He installed the kit and promptly blew the engine with too much boost (whoops where did that wastegate go?).
After this it sat for another long time and finally got a new engine, as well as a new turbo.
Around this time i was just finishing my old 87 dx/si the car sat for another long time through the winter with an oil leak.
After the winter is when i got creamed in an intersection in my old car, so i needed a new one. I bought this one and did a quick repair job on the oil line. drove it and had fun!
When i first got it:
Needed some paint:
A few weeks ago i decided it was time to replace the head gasket, while i had the head off i completely re-ran my oil feeder line the proper (and expensive )way
I also installed my wastegate actuator (it was just held open before):
As of now the car is driven daily and runs fairly well.

Not really fritt's Engine has been rebuilt and upgraded internals. Which I had neither the time or the money to do (or the skill)
Right now I am just riding it as it is on stock internals, on a damn old engine.
Lets just hope the engine lasts until summer
As for the turbo i really should have taken more close pics of it, im going to finish off some paint right now.
So when i get that all done I am taking some pics of the car. Ill climb under and snap a few for you.
