If you're interested, my brief introduction and history with this car can be seen here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=229506
The day finally came last Thursday and I picked up my 1990 CRX Si back from the friend I sold it to almost 7 years ago.
The car feels amazing, pulls strong and has already gotten a couple b from people in traffic!
Sorry for quick dark pictures, I snapped them at a friends house and the car is currently at my installers getting the alarm done.
Beyond the rear seat and taillights, I've purchased a good amount of parts that should be coming in the next weeks. It's mainly aesthetic stuff like amber corners+bumper lights, rear mudflaps(looking for fronts if anyone has any FS), windor visors, rear visor, dc2 arm rest etc.
As you can see the drivers door is the worst part of the body, i'm hoping it can be salvaged but if not the car came with another mint door, I'd just rather keep as many original panels as possible. I'll be meeting with body shops in the coming weeks to iron out the body work and paint situation. My plan is respraying the car in barbados yellow using the SiR paint scheme.
The next hurdle will be finding the hatch leak as I've already discovered it leaks when rained on for long periods. I've read all the leak posts I could find so I'll be attempting to tackle that next weekend. I'm not putting speakers or my rear seat in until that is fixed.
Other than that I just need to raise it up a little as it's a tad too low for me on these Austin streets. Oh, and install a headlight buzzer, I've already left them on at least 4 times :lol:
