Andrew's engine swap (pics)

run 17lbs in the tires, heat them up to 170* and dump the clutch while feathering the throttle around 4k. It'll hook.

Also, something is VERY screwed in that car if it is only trapping 89mph. You should be up in the high 90s with all of the weight you have removed.... unless there is a 400lb sub box in the back.

Stock 1991 CRX Si curb weight: 2174lbs
-A/C components
-heater
-fan
-passenger seat
-spare tire/associated tools/jack

...Thats gotta be more than 100lbs right there...


Anyway, my buddy came over and took some pics of my car with his new wide-angle lens:

DR's?

Guess who?

Back OT: I'll be getting a compression tester and differential pressure tester (leak down) from my buddy in the next few days. The only problem with the leak down setup is that it's kinda cheap and only pressurizes the cylinder to 10psi... but at least it'll give me an idea...

BTW the tape on the fenders is for the tar from the track... the headlights was just a joke.

No, no dyno yet. I need a new URHose, and a new fan. (hardwired it today and nothing happened.. It's dead...

This thing is still going!? You guys are a fucking trip. Haha, I've enjoyed scrolling through the pages I missed. Keep it up!

^^ You know the 18 was in a rental, Automatic, PTCruiser, right?
And what do you mean, "it's still going?" ??? of course it's still going dude.. .follow the thread!!


BTW-
CRX meet this weekend. (with pretty much all the CRX's in Tallahassee.)
So we'll get some good pics.

-Andrew

I wish that A, I lived in Tallahassee, and B, the CRX was running right now. Damn. Pittsburgh sucks. The extent of any "Car Meets" consists of a couple cavaliers, my crx, and my buddys accord. Very unfortunate. I'm the only one in the area even with a CRX. Oh well.

Gotta represent brotha!

Oh I do, but nobody cares

your just special. i would be happy to say that i have the only crx. thats how it used to be awhile back. Now everyone has one. its not a bad thing........^_^


You just kinda get sick that every rex owner wants to either race you or ''Holla" by revving like a dumbass. i hate it cuz the other cars look at me like i know the kid...............god it used to make me feel like a ricer

Yeah, I find myself driving it to my dad's house in Cincinnati and I'll see another one on the highway going the opposite direction, and I do a double take since I'm not used to seeing them. I donno, I can see how it'd get old in a sense.

its gets old when they are all ricers. seeing another that is either clean or looks swapped is another thing. Those are the ones that share you interests. We have ALOT of ricers here in tallahassee.

Hey andrew can you pull up the pic of the riced out Dale Earnhart #3 cavalier?

oh man, here it comes...

Ask an you shall receive, Abel.
Unfortunatly I couldn't find that #3 Cavvy you were thinking of, but heres some Tallahassee Rice.

Maybe my altima has potential
