|
|
||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| orig. gas tank had hole in it and after I stripped it and try to fix it I found out milion holes on bottom, so I got new (used) tank stripped that one and protected it with FG and then used one more protection - underseal. |
||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| under body protected with underseal | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| new parts: • Tokico illuminas shocks • Ground control coilover kit • Hedman header (was rusted, so I sandblast it and paint it with high temp. paint) • wheels collection |
||||||||

| this car was painted by me in garage, since I had tons of problems with painter that first painted my track CR-X (it had to be painted TWICE ! whole car) bought SATA guns and learn how to paint and then painted this car, I think it came out pretty nice it just needs some polishing and it'll be perfect. |
||||||||
| me sanding doors...the only prove I did something on this car...the only picture of me working ;) | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| finished parts in my fitness room, since lots of things had to be done in garage and I didn't want to damadge them in any way (paint spray...) | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| finally painted the last part, chasiss...and now I can put everything together at last;) | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| dash is in and trunk with emblems is on and some other small things are already installed... | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| after photoshoot I put on fog lights and side mirrors (notice: there are no windows on) | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| next step: installing windows (windshield and rear side windows)...that was quite a project, especially windshield | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| installed windows... | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| Everything installed and almost everything working :) | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| Installed center console, damn that thing is nasty, had to cut both things (dash side and console) to fit it perfect, since this is old car I bought nice nakamichi MP3 player that completes that dash very nice and plays very well, and I finally installed 4-2-1 chikara headman header, wrap it so it won't heat engine bay. |
||||||||
|

||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| Tegiwa Imports blue washers (will look a lot better when engine bay will be color matched and tons nicer than those old rusty screws) |
||||||||
|

| I finally test this little monster on kart track... it was runing nice and smooth but I need better tires the Proxes T1R (daily tires) for track days |
||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| another track day, car runs nice, but I really need torsion bars and semi slick or slick tires cause on Toyo T1R it's just to slippery. |
||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| ... | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| just got back from 4600km long trip to UK CRX meet in Swansea car ran and is still runing fine, so it's all ok for now and when I got back I got something new for it (ES master bushings kit). We made at least 600km in two days just driving the Welsh country (Wales) national parks, great ride. some photos I made... |
