    I left the CRX in the shop last night, came in this morning and the whole place smelled like fuel. Upon further inspection I found my injector seals were seeping.
    All injector, line, as well as fuel rail seals, o-rings, and crush washers were replaced.

    Instagram post from yesterday..

    wow just saw the list of issues..... thats worse than the day i was there and had to leave it sit in that parking lot (what was the problem with the burning smoke that time ??)

    glad you got it BACK & all fixed ......
    i like how you put your own little touch to each HONDA in a different way each time ....

    Just went through the thread I love all the work you put into your Rex. This is my inspiration to get my wagon all cleaned up and painted...

    Header and dizzy bolts are a nice touch. :encouragement:

    you're so fancy!

    Put some new KICKER 6.5" in the rear of the CRX over the weekend, These are the same exact set that is in the White EX sedan I'm doing for my brother.
    This truly trumped the "old" (but still new, 2 year old) sound quality of the Pioneer replicas that I had in there... Jensen or something like that. The music sounds soo crisp and clean now... and it stays that way all the way up the volume range. My kind of audio equipment.
    I also raised it a half inch or so.. (I guess that living the low life through the Rat is good enough for me)

    Couple rolling interior iPhone shots too.

    Thanks dude! This car holds a special place for me. There is a lot of reasoning behind it.
    New Hatch struts! The old ones were getting weak and the hatch fell on me a time or 2.. Not cool, CRX hatches are heavy as hell because of that piece of glass.

  • Great build as usual, you should make a youtube show, you could make more than enough to fund many more awesome builds.

    Came across this thread randomly, and I have to say I enjoyed reading through your build thread Chaife. Keep up the great work! Wished my CRX looked near this great.

    Any additional future projects/plans for the car?

    Thank you, no plans in particular. Maybe another set of wheels? I just started driving this as my daily. Maybe this means I will fix it up some more.

    Needs to be said...

    THIS IS MY FAVORITE NON-WAGON ON THE SITE!!

    I've seen it in person, and it's just as nice!
  • ChaifeChaife Instagram grand master
    Thanks man!! She's running better than ever after an adjustment to the timing and some new plugs.
    Pulls hard and sounds AMAZING! Cheers.

    The guts fell out of my Cat the other day. I guess my tune is too rich, because that Cat was only like 2 or 3 years old.. Time to tune or hit the dyno after new Cat is installed. It is kinda loud now. Going to order a new Cat soon. Here are some fresh pics for now.

    I rarely do this but I got tired of seeing mud and road grime splashed up the side of the car. I recently purchased some NOS-ish Honda mudflaps. Mounted for only a few thousand miles recently on another car. These are basically like new.
    It's been a while since I've lived the 'Honda Access' life. :p hehe
