The z28 looks really good but, like everyone else, I'm a lot more interested in the RWD CRX! We need more pics and info on it!

cool build. looks slick, but can I ask why you built it with the compressor inlet facing inwards towards the heat and limiting space for air filters, vs outwards?

That is awesome man. I saw a guy with a civic hatch i believe, with a custom cantilever system. He used the rear shocks off of a 06-07 honda cbr like you (well those look like cbr shocks). Would yours being rwd now would that affect anything, or do you think they will have to be re valved?

actually, the spring rates are too strong for this application. i couldn't find the spring rates anywhere online and it turns out they are almost 700#'s. i am currently looking to have some springs made for them that are around 250. as for re-valving, i'm not sure. i believe i could get around that by just putting some lighter weight oil in them.

Very Nice!
I got my Camaro when I was 14 and and started making it a "race car" day one. Granted it was (and still is) still street legal, but not such a great daily driver. The reason I am here is to gain the knowledge to build a twin turbo setup for it.
I got my first "daily driver" when I was 18. Just so happens it was a little white 91 CRX si. I always wondered what it would have been like with rear wheel drive. Man, you have to keep us updated on how the little Honda turns out!!!!!
