i bought this project as a relitivly unknown car for spares or repairs as its been stood in storage for a while, i work with the previous owner and have had a few freaking insane drives against it, it however kicked everything i had on the road.
it comes with a full set of poly bushes in a box, spare front plastic nose and spare plastic front wings spare indicators, radiator, front seats and headlights.

on a plus side before it was parked up he welded new metal in the arches and jacking points and blended fairly well the paint with a rattle can. also cam belt and tensioner have been done.

its list of mods include a full stainless powerflow exhaust inc 4-2-1 manifold, tociko gas dampers and uprated springs.


watch this space for updates to the new project.

for those who dont know me, have a read of my type s build thread, link in my signature, also pop your name down and ill add you to our members map.

i submitted the crx for its mot, not looking at it or even lifting a wheel, in for a penny and all that.

what do you know.... it passed. only one advisory on radiator cooling fins deteriorated. It even has new rear brake cylinder, solid brake lines and flexy hoses fitted.

That is awesome,i didn't expect to see one of these pop up on the forum today 8-)

I have a gap to fill in my life with one of these again since selling my one 7 yrs back.

My fling had the popup eyebrows over the headlights,Brown Zc engine,fairly quick car and so light :o

If ever there was keepers ;)

I passed a 89ish Jdm Civic a few wks back on the roads,it was Black,had the Si on the back and the DOHC etc along the doors,i couldn't take my eyes of it.


Great collection there.
