draybook Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 This is my 91 CRX HF that I just got from my brother in law. It's running a ZC motor and pushing 9 lbs of boost. Sitting around 210-220 hp's atm. Not bad for a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Cool man. Do what you wish, but here is my recommendation: Get factory bumpers, and sides, and get a front lip. Then, paint the car some shade of blue. 350Z blue looks great too. Then, get stock headlights, and amber corners. Eventually change the wheels, and you're done with the exterior. Then, turn up the boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 yeah, car looks like total dog crap right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanGSR Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Screw that. Keep ricing it out. Put a big aluminum wing on it, and some clear taillights. Leave it primered. This way when everybody laughs about it being a ricer car, they'll feel that much dumber when you're actually faster than them. Oh, the irony.

Humphries Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 yeah, and get some Vtech stickers and underbody lights too. it'll be jazzed up runnin 12s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanGSR Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 That seriously would be hilarious to see a car done out like that, start whoopin up on "fast" cars that talk smack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 i would give it a chuckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Personally, I think that thing looks pretty sweet, even primer'd. I like the wheels and the kit ain't bad in my opinion. I wouldn't go all the way with the aluminum wing, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 TS john, you have hubcaps. and bad taste when it comes to cars. no offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I have hubcaps cuz I'm poor. I need tires for my MR7s before they go on my car. Those are important, I hear. I like uniquely bad looking cars. This one is sweet like candy in that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 yeah, true.. i think its great you have rims but mr7s are the plainest, most boring rims on the market besides Honda/Acura OEM wheels. in my opinion.. but no one likes my opinions.

TS John Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I agree with that but the price was right on these. Plus, I like understated. In fact, I'll prolly get Honda center caps for them to make them look like big OEMs to most people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanGSR Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I was kidding guys. I actually don't mind the body kit too much. Paint it black, paint the wheels gunmetal, and lower it and I'd love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What should it matter if you're kidding or not? It's a ricey looking kit. Maybe it was his brother-in-law is/was a ricer, and this guy is going to de-rice the car... then again, maybe not.

90IntegraC1 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 do the rear air vents assist in cooling the rear-mounted engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draybook Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 I'm going to go with a metaliic midnight blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I'm going to go with a metaliic midnight blue after i return to stock bumpers and side skirts, then put on a nice lip kit, drop it, and change the wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRG7 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 haha, you forgot to mention the headlights and tails (looks like they'd be clears or altezzas, hard to tell from that angle though). but hey, i guess if he likes it that way, then that's his choice... welcome to the board, btw to the OP.

draybook Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 No Alt lights, plain black and red clears. I also don't plan on changing the body style. I'm not a conformist, I do my own thing, although in this case it was already done. I see nothing wrong with it so it will stay as is. Obviously, nobody here has been in the South, because if you think this is "ricey", then you haven't seen crap. And I would never get a wing, on any car.

It's ricey, but there is far worse out there, which isn't exclusive to the south. If you like it, so be it, that's what you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pballer2005 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 it looks pretty nice to me, its right on the border of rice but i like it. is that just wheel gap blending in with the tires or are those just bigger tires? if they are bigger go with a thinner tire and lower it lil bit. i've always been partial to black or blue cars with bronze rims, kind of a subaru ralley look.

draybook Posted August 4, 2006 Author Share Posted August 4, 2006 do the rear air vents assist in cooling the rear-mounted engine? Not really, since those aren't vents, they're just the design of the body kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pballer2005 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 even if they were vents you'd think they would be more for brake cooling :smoking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
