      I know a guy who has all those things 😉 Especially the STi wing. If you have a silver wrx wingless I'd contemplate a trade of the trunk lids.

        I'm currently working on buying a 12.19" Wilwood Big Brake kit, so I guess that goes on the winter mod list for the CRX. :icon_bigsmurf:

          Isn't that overkill for a lil CRX

              Yes :icon_rr: but it's not my DD. Having a 200hp motor in that car is overkill, and that's exactly what I'm going for haha Also I've just always had a place in my heart for pimp wheels with really nice brakes behind them.

              Oh yeah and I just bought the brakes so they will be on their way Monday! There goes all my Christmas $.

                  what size wheels will u have to run? 15's are about perfect imo.. anything bigger than 16's look just plain gay...

                  I think DA brakes with good pads/rotors will be good enough, if not i've seen ppl make prelude brakes fit... also a lot cheaper...

                    Ha yeah I didn't really mean that like literally. It's only ~8.5HP/lb, hopefully less than 6 with nitrous. I hope to be bringing this car to school with me in Ohio over Spring break, and racing it at Mid Ohio Speedway in the summer. It's not made to be a suppidly overpowered Honda, just cheap, fast, and reliable.

                    You have to run 16's on them. I'll be running 16X7 +35 Desmonds. I got a really really good deal on them that I couldn't pass up. Like I said I'm a sucker for good brakes, and these calipers also fit 11" rotors so I can always switch to those if I feel like running a 15" wheel.

                      Get rid of the two electric fuel pumps Weldon 2035 and the ACCEl pump and get a belt drive.

                      2-speed 400 or a glide
                      will add to the list later.

                      The mini-tub kit showed up and the tires are on order. Here is a picture of a 315 vs a 325, big difference.

                        I think you meant lb/hp. 🙂 Otherwise you are in top fuel dragster territory.

                          edit saw it was only 2" difference, looks like more

                            How is this tire change going to be gearing wise?

                              It will be a like a 2.87 gear. If I want it to be the same I would have to get some 3.31 gears. I'll worry about a gear change later if needed. I think I'll be ok with what I am running. I need the extra gearing to be the first in the 180's anyways..:icon_rr:

                                          Tested out some new EMS yesterday, so far pretty happy with it, I think it will be nice. Also doing a bit of body work over the last couple of days, getting it ready to go for spring.
