So as some of you know i spent a few years of my life messing about with jdm cars. Parked up and has been for 3 years is my old pride and joy rusting away. Its a crx del sol so not so good for track use but has a stonking power plant we shoe horned into it, lsd, huge brakes and so so much more.
So new plan was to purchase a new civic ek/ej9. Managed to get a 1998 1.4 3door which is the correct chassis for a track of them all.
So started the fun bit yesterday, spending money. 1st purchase was a customcaged fia/msa weld in roll cage
Then today gutted the interior bar the dash which will be out tommorow with a bit of luck. 1hour and a half later

He wanted to put the little van engine in it, but then it would be unfair to other honda's on track

Blimey you said you fancied ripping something out. Good vent mate! Haha.
Come on then, stop talking, there's a dash to remove.
