Esford90's CRX Si Build (Second Try)

Well anyways I got into an accident with it 2 months ago. I dont have good luck with this car, so I’m giving it one last try. After this is done and if anything happens to it I’m parting it out. I’m going to try and keep this updated with as many pictures as I can.
As far as what my plans are with the car, I want to put a fresh coat of paint on it (I was thinking Champ White), along with the JDM EF8 Front. My other plans are to convert the cable to all hydraulic lines because I hate my hasport cable to hydro kit, do a brake line tuck, and replace as many run down parts as I can as I go. And whatever I feel like doing. I havent really decided exactly what I want for each aspect of the car but I will figure it out as I go. I did finally get coilovers for it and pictures of them installed are below.
This is what it used to look like before the accident:

Accident: :cry:






And this is as I’ve been terring it down:







Decided to clean the garage and put the car where I want it before I took off all of the suspension/subframe/trailing arms.

Then I put it back on the jack stands and took everything out.




And that is how it sits now, more update will be soon to come as I do more body work and collect parts for it.
Thanks for looking :thumbup:

Me too, but it seems like its off the road being worked on more that it is on the road.

And when Im working on it, it has nothing to do with mechanical issues LOL.

those wheels look like shit on that car so, sell 'em to me.

haha, glwthe rebuild :tup:

just do a regular one , like whatever is on s2k’s

Can you friggen turbo this thing already?

haha, they have 100 miles on the brand new tires, how much would you give me for them

i dont want a super brite white, i want something just off of white

nope

you tear this thing apart so damn fast haha. i wish i had the time for my car. its gunna look great with champ white but i think you should change the rims up. work meisters? or how about bbs rs’s?

haha i might sell the wheels. im not sure yet. i like your signature picture btw, a little fade of my car in the background

I’m not 100% sure I’m going to sell them yet

first time I have ever seen anyone restore a CRX lol

Its not like a total resto project. The car is going to be nowhere near close to stock I’m just painting it and replacing a lot of faded and worn down pieces

you can call me by my real name on here, its ok lol

ok ERIC

Well the only update I have is that I am going up to Canada to get most of the JDM front pieces that I need in the second week in October. I have been doing body work and sanding for a long time now. The interior is such a b*** to sand because of all the creases and such that is in there. After the body work is done the project should go alot faster.

My friend just got done painting his eg hatch champ white and now I’m having second guess’ about what color to paint it. Champ white is just too much of a creamy color for me. I may take eric’s advise and paint it s2k white or something very similar.
