IT BEGINS.........my CRX build thread
#161
uhh where the hell else would i drive it? its not even close to cali legal and never will be. its a dedicated track car meaning you-drive-it-on-the-track! lol
#163
nah, i was going to try and get it registered out of state but i decided that im just going to track it and have fun with it. way easier to do but after its done, i need to go trailer shopping.

haha i thought about buying another crx and switching the plates for track days, but its going to be kind of hard to fly under the radar with a straight pipe, full cage and gutted interior haha.

im going to have to disagree with you on this one. long wheelbase increases stability but reduces traction. short wheelbase has better steering response and can hold more speed through a tight corner.

IDK I can smell a straight pipe 5 cars away. But I am into that sort of thing, maybe cops would not notice. Probably more for them to worry about in CA than some uppity kid with one o' them fureign cars.
Wow i just noticed that engine looks HUGE in that stripped crx. Especially from the front view.

no, im not going to use the supercharger. the alternator pulley is super close to the frame rail and if i had to add an extra inch of belt, it would rub for sure creating a whole mess of problems for me. i am looking to sell the supercharger and find a nice set of individual throttle bodies.

at this point, the engine is in and its not coming out. if i did any banging on anything, i would ruin the paint and have to redo it all over again. too much work for what? 50 more horsepower that i dont necessarily need in such a light car.

the interior is almost done. im still doing tons of body work on the outside, but by the end of this weekend i should have some badass pictures of my progress.
