Probably nothing that anyone would be interested in around here. Rare UKDM vti cluster, standard UKDM Vt cluster, UKDM clear corner stanley corner lights, rear tails with integrated for light. Also selling my Takata’s from my EK, High End seats and a lot more since I am parting it out

I’m interested in the clear corners. The ones I got from when I pulled them off the CRX shell are shot.

Yeah, If you like the look of slipstreams and have money to spend, buy a legit wheel like spoons. Lots of $$$$ though

I took all of the wiring and brake line tuck out started sanding some more. My main goal for now is to work on getting some more of the suspension bushings/tie rod ends/balljoints replaced so as soon as the engine bay and interior is in color I can make my car a rolling shell again. I hate not being able to move my car around.

Finally got to do some work on the car. I bought a header and blasted/painted some more suspension items (Front LCA’s, Spindles, and hubs), I need to buy new wheel bearings, ball joints and arp wheel studs before I can put them back together.

do you have any type of aftermarket front cross member? my friend put one on his that also had bars that supported the lca’s from the rear and it made an amazing difference in handling

I bought a tri-y header for my motor during all of the black friday savings and they say I woul dhave to modify my crossmember in the front. So now I’m looking into traction bars. They look 6874517654 times better and make the handling awsome.

Where did your buddy get his? I have heard about a bar that holds the front LCA from the back but never really seen it as a kit with traction bars.

Not that it has anything to do with this CRX thread but ricer rolls on 15 inch Volk wheels. Anyway I just scanned through and this looks like a pretty solid build thread and I’m far from a Honda fan. Keep up the good work sir!

got this type r intake manifold with a 70 mm throttle body off of my friend, the kid that owned it before him tryed doing a port match on it but only slightly tapered it so I’m going to have it port matched the correct way.
