I've finally picked up my dream Crx after years of searching. I've owned a 90 Si, 91 Dx, and 88 Dx. I found a good deal on a clean body of a 1991 Si which came already boosted.
I had no idea the interior was all there, I had no idea how clean the body was, and I had no idea it didn't have rust. When I showed up, I was beyond suprised. Even before test driving her, I knew she was coming home with me.
Long story short, the previous owner took very good care of her even though I do not agree on some of the body pieces he put on. It sat in his garage for 7 years. I have all the paperwork that was done to the motor by shops.
His main mechanic passed away and after that he lost interest in finishing the build. So, I am taking over.
My original plans was to get a clean 1991 Si and vitara build a d16z6 with over 20 psi. Well, I will be building that on the side while I drive with this motor.
Immediatly after arriving at my house, I removed the hideous rear bumper and horrifying z3 fenders. Next is to find a decent looking hood. As you can tell I am not a fan of the body kits. I had a 88-91 rear bumper laying around so I put that on.
Here is a small list of work done:
-d16a6
-block bored over .10
-cometic head gasket
-ported and polished head
-titanium spring retainers
-stage 3 cam
-(Lift) intake 383 exhaust 374
-(Duration) intake 264 exhaust 258
-adj cam gear
-oversized valves
-Eagle H-beam rods
-SRP pistons
-7Ib flywheel
-Skunk2 throttle body
-Skunk2 intake manifold
-LSD phantam grip transmission
-ARP fasteners
-full MSD ignition with 2-step
-Greddy profac-B electronic boost controller
-Full aluminum radiator
-OBX Fuel Rail
-xspower turbo, wastegate, bov, exhaust manifold, intercooler
-All new gaskets, belts, everything else internally.
-Guages (RPM & shift light, boost, Air/Fuel, Oil Pressure)
I know I'm missing tons of stuff but it's late and I have to get up at 5am so I'll stop there.
And last but not least, for you picture whores out there...
Interior pics to come on a later date.
