ZOMBIE CRX: Mrrawwwgghhh
RIP EM1 I never had the money to spend on mods, as the money I didn't put into college went towards camera gear. I did put a custom exhaust on the car: 2.25 inch piping from the cat back, with a resonator and an N1 style muffler. Always loved how the car sounded, not ricey at all http://www.mikespock.com/sticky.wmv My suspension gave out on me while I was on the road in early 2005. I'll say this much, do not beat on your car, it WILL break on you. I rang in 2006 with a deer impact, and shortly after, the transmission went. The engine removal was quite a fun time... At this point, I wanted to go all out and restore the car to make up for never being able to build it. I picked up numerous OEM trim parts and other pieces, and ordered a B16 swap. I started filling and shaving the bay, which turned into a long, drawn out hectic ordeal. I have just primered up the bay, and it will go through winter like this so I can work on areas of the bay whenever necessary. The car should be done sometime in late November. Mods going on include a JDM B16 with LSD tranny, Koni Yellows and Neuspeed race springs, JK motorsports traction bar, and strut bars for now. - - - - - - - - While the CRX was being worked on, I picked up a 1984 Mazda GLC for next to nothing to drive around until the car was done. 1.5 liter engine, 75 horses, 4 speed. It was hella fun to drive around in, until it blew up around 3 weeks later. By some insane chance, I found a professionally built version of the motor for sale on ebay, and another project car developed to steal all my time. ^ After polishing it up. A month later the engine went in, and I've been driving it around open header scaring the hell out of people. If anyone could help me with a custom exhaust, that would be most excellent. Footage here: www.mikespock.com/wowitruns.wmv Thanks for looking, and be glad you have a modern high horsepower car and not a hatchcrap.

Not exactly rust free.
I'd like to get all that repaired over winter, if anyone could recommend a shop to do it I'd appreciate it.

Wow, it looks like your project is coming along very nicely.
I am loving the clean look of the shaved valve cover, carbon/kevlar spark plug cover and the polished block.
