HackAbuse's CRX Project
My brother bought an '89 crx as a project car. We've been coming right along with it all winter. Got a D16 single slammer vtec swap, did bodywork and repainted it, and just finishing up the turbo setup. I'll see if I can post a few pics.
Edit: A few pics of him doing the bodywork (dremel ftw) and of course the TurboXS RFL we put on.
They are definetly cheap fun cars that will take a beating.

After the piston swap I should be well into the 14s
With a good pair of DRs and i should be able to hit 13's if I don't snap the axles.
Update: I cleaned the IACV, but she still has a weird idle. I'm going to adjust the FITV tomorrow
I might stay N/A depending on how my new pistons do. If I put down good numbers with my 11.8:1 pistons, I'll try for all motor.
Yeah, my cobalt is defintely slow. She'll never be fast, but she shouldnt be jealous because I'll always drive her everday. And she is still the loudest (system) car in my town.

Believe me, its nothing against you at all. I just know of so many people who spent near 10k on an NA crx and it only ran a high 13.
If you do this under 2gs then you will totally suprise me.
Remember... nothing against you personally.
Good luck with it!

i know two people that spent less than 2gs that ran 13s.. one with a crx and one with a hatch...
It's already got alot of work done to it. I'm not starting over with a stock CRX, I'm starting out with a hybrid.
Tell those people they kind of suck at life.
