    Default CRX WACE CAR build thread

    This is not a race car build... the word wace is for the jdm tyte racing stripes it has..

    Well me and a friend bought a rex for $600 that runs perfect.. It has supa dupa fresh racing stripes and all the interior is custom spray painted. But the great part is, is that the seats are near mint.

    The car was swapped with a Z6 4 years ago. The motor came out of my old EF hatch that I had to completely rewire. The rex has the same harness now, which is ALL obd1... everything!!

    We are using my old LS motor with a JDM obd0 cable B16 tranny.

    Car had been backed into at the door and lower quarter. Door is already done. But sorry no pics.

    here is some pics as of now... check the awesome waceing srtipes....LOL





    pretty straight body for how long it was riced out



    Ummm....red



    gangster straight pipe to dual exhaust







    New door is on. Complete rear has been gutted. Getting things ready for the LS swap like mounts, shift linkage, and clutch etc...

    Car will be repainted factory red, with the sir front-end conversion.

    More pics to come daily.... stay tuned..

    Shits whack son.

    CRX's always piss me off because a 160whp CRX can smoke everything else on the track.

    It's not fair!

    Good luck on your project and looking forward to more updates!

    I think I should have made a different title....

    When I say WACE car, I am talking about the wacing stripes it contains right now... sorry for any confusion...

    But to answer, It's being built for an all around car... more than likely left+right tho

    LOL... sorry Mike..

    Update pics... not much progress today... just some interior cleaning and wire removal...

    The door we replaced yesterday..



    New factory center console and insert.



    The dirtyness after we gutted it



    all cleaned getting ready to tuck all wires and start sanding for some clean layers of red paint...



    installing center console and other BS





    finished... the console will get all block off plates as there is no need for a radio.
