I'm a lurker but on this site just about daily. Figured I'd post some media on the DSM since I took some video today :)

Some pics Below. I might do a sort-of build thread on what I've done with the car. I neglected it for years while I was finishing college and then went into the Army. After that I deployed for a year and am just now giving it the TLC it deserves. I recently installed a built head, new turbo setup, ECMlink V3 upgrade and other goodies. Degreed the motor myself and it's pulling like a freight train for only 20psi or so. Looking forward to installing a home-made double pumper so I can go 30+ PSI and make some real power.

How it sits today:

I had a fiberglass "Drifter" bumper on the car for a while, then came to my senses that it was complete garbage after I cracked it. I prefer the OEM look anyway and got this ABS plastic bumper off Ebay for $100 shipped. It'll get painted eventually.

Yeah I like the red interior. I've had several opportunities to swap it over for the "checkerboard" black/white seats, but never could bring myself to do it. The porno red interior rocks.

Anyway, here's what the car used to look like. I guess that bumper looked alright, but definitely NOT worth the trouble it was. Plus I like the original/OEM look.

I think we've talked about that over PM.... another car with a motor that it isn't supposed to have.....in the trunk! Let's see it.

I wish I had a positive update for the CRX. :oops: Took it for a drive a few months back- almost dies. it could have been made more reasonable with more work and time, but the car was literally unsafe with no weight int he front. The stock torsion suspension did not help the matters much!
