88 CRX Si Project built by T&C Racing

[sprjit22]

Ill start with prepairing the engine bay so when the swap arrives we can just drop it in.











As you can see it is nasty so we better get it cleaned up and ready for paint.



I got all th rubber plug's pulled out. I swear their is about 1000 of them they are lurking in every corner.

If you ook close you can see where someone hacked off the mount on the crossmember. Ill drill the spot welds and remove the rest of the mount.





Pulled the fenders off so I wont have any tape lines or any primer showing if you look under the lip of the fender.



Yeah we wont be useing this little master.

We are upgrading to a 1" bore. May not seem like much of a differance but, trust me it is.

1" bore master off of a 98 spec jdm type r



jdm yo


Swap just came in...














Let not forget the cluster... Possibly putting this 98 spec jdm type r cluster in 8.5 DAMN














UPDATE 7/31/09
Full gsr brake set up.

Isnt that sexy? Front wheel stand's in the near future.


Finishing up the edges where I welded the holes where the front mount was and then we decided that we would get the full race traction bars that take the place of the cross member. They will serve 2 purposes. 1 They will obviously help with traction and wheel hop 2 It will look alot cleaner....


8/1/09 UPDATE
Im in the process of making the seams a little smoother. Im not removing them all together just making them look more profesional



UPDATE 8/3/09Now do they look better?






UPDATE 8/4/09 @ 5:05am

UPDATE 8/20/09

UPDATE 8/22/09
More parts came in again

















Just ordered these today (1/15/09), D2 Racing Full Coilovers SuburbanNoize has these on his 98 Integra and they are really nice. So when we get the car back from paint they can be installed!






Car has been gone about 5 days, this is the progress so far. There was a ton of rust all around the car, so thats all being taken care of first.









Waiting for a warm day to paint, Carbon fiber sunroof just came in and new bumper from honda will be here in the morning!

Small update: Terry went and pulled the full brakes (Front+Rear) from a GSR integra, so those will be going on there. More pics tomorrow!

[ferkk123]

are you doing a full harness conversion? or just an obd1 jumper harness

[SuburbanNoize]

Im thinking most likely a jumper, but im gonna leave it up to Terry to let me know what he thinks.

[ferkk123]

just make sure you have jap tune it it is gonna be a nasty, maybe throw on some itb's? seems like everyone nowadays has some kind of dohc vtec in a rex

[SuburbanNoize]

Not really sure as far as power adders or bolt ons what is planned, but there will definately be a set of Drag radials on there to make use of the LSD.

[ferkk123]
