Crx love!

Post by speed »

thanks man,i had some free time tonight sooo i gave the ol girl some attention:
This is just a quick snap before i called it a night,but as you can see tonight i removed all the air conditioning non-sense,painted that trans mount that was makin my shit look janky,and started polishing the valve cover. I squezed alot of stuff getting done in tonight and hopefully i can finish that valve cover tomorrow..its such a long boring job. But since it looks like my swap may be put on hold for now i figure i might as well make the ol d16 look not so old and crusty. Maybe in the future if i get really bord ill shave the whole valve cover and polish it again but for now its just gettin polished lol.

Also please check out my for sale thred for information about the ac stuff. Thanks guys!

Relocate the coolant overflow behind the bumper cover. The brake booster line can be turned down and run below the intake manifold so it's out of sight. The fitting for the BB vacuum line on the manifold can be turned down as well. The only other suggestions I have since you're doing a swap is to replace that giant radiator cap that will probably end up breaking. Paint the wiper arms if you plan on keeping them. And get an OBD2 LS valve cover.

This should be your goal, except keep your A/C. N2HIFI's old hatch.

well as a quick update, i have been super busy with my new house and most of my free time gets spent on my bike but i have done a few little things here and there on the crx.

Heres just before i put the lip on as you can see the 1.8 is just about ready to go in just gotta get a clutch,and axles. My gsr block and head are still at my buddys machine shop and most likely will be there untill next summer when i have the money to pick them up. there sitting in a safe spot so till then i have the b18a1 to fall back on.
