DaddyBuiltRacing Posted October 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) 10/8/09: Well I told you updates would come this week and goodies were going to be bought, I did not lie. The bf suprised me today buy going to the local Honda dealership and ordering me a set of OEM Rear Mudflaps, just gotta source a front pair now. Then I found a local company here in Ohio that sells 1/4 panel patch panels, picked up a set as well. Best news for me is both orders will be here tomorrow. Hoping to have 1/4 panels cut out and welded in by end of this month/beginning of next month. Will have pics tomorrow once parts arrive.

Remember all those wiring supplies that I bought last week? Well they came into use today. The fiance and a couple of his buddies helped me do a wire tuck on the CRX. Big thanks goes out to the Fiance and his buddies Steve Wilson and Jeremiah McCann I also removed other items from the engine bay that I won't be using such as: Washer bottle Injector Resistor box (going inside the car) Map sensor (GM 3bar going inside the car) Winshield Wipe Motor (Won't be driven in rain) Charcoal Canister A/C Anyways lets get to some pics: This is how it looked when the day started http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1914.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1913.jpg The driver and passenger side looms were opened up and pulled through the firewall: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1918.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1917.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1921.jpg Then the wires were cut, labeled and pulled through a grommet on the frame rail: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1923.jpg After that, all the wires were extended, soldered, heatshrunk, taped and loomed: Will have pic of this tomorrow, forgot to snap one lol In this pic you can see some of the A/C wiring and the A/C lines...those were also removed: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1919.jpg Heres a shot of the driver side after the washer bottle was taken out: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1920.jpg And a finished view of the passenger side: http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/driverside.jpg Oh yeah notice the black circles in the engine bay, those are holes that will soon be gone hehe!!

Picked up another free part today. My little brother had a couple P06 ecu's laying around, and gave me one of them. I am gonna have it chipped and tuned on eCTune by the bf's friend in a couple months. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/Tacaras%20CRX/100_1942.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
