10/27/09: Free!! Free!! Free!! Yeah thats the word that can be used to describe most of this build. 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.

11/7/09: I told you an update would come today, its not the update I really wanted to give but it is what it is. Picked up a set of front mudflaps today for $15 bucks!! They arein mint shape (the discoloration in picture is caused by water from being cleaned up lol). Another update will come tomorrow once the parts car gets here

11/8/09: Alright the update I wanted to give yesterday is finally here!! The parts car finally got here this morning around noon, 3 hours later it was pretty much a shell lol. The bf, his dad and 2 buddies did work on it. I did a good job supervising if I may say so. Anyways lets get to the pics to see what all hapenned today.

 

Heres the parts car fresh off the tow truck, notice the driver side is crushed. Motor is being pulled and put into previous owners Hatchback:

Started tearing it apart and then moved it to the back of our house to tear it apart even more:

Now lets get to the goodies I got off the car for my CRX....

Also had a automatic PO6 laying around (going to sell my 5speed P06), Josh's buddy Steve hooked us up today. He converted the auto to manual then chipped it with Crome and a base map for FREE!!! He will later be chipping it with ECTune and tuning it for me:

11/28/09: Well it isn't Black Friday but I still got the hookup lol. The bf has a 90 Integra parts car, needless to say I got the front brake setup for my rex. He also had a half size dual core radiator sitting around with slim fan that I got off him for free. :lol:

12/8/09: Today I got another Free part lol. Josh's buddy had a rear trans bracket laying around and gave it to Josh for me. Also started tearing my front hub assembly apart so I can get new ball joints, wheel bears and studs pressed in. Also gonna send the hub knuckles out to be powder coated. Pics will be up later tonight

/1/4/10:]/b] Although the build is on hold for a while as a whole, I did manage to get some parts powder coated. The pictures don't really show the color the greatest, so tomorrow ill take more pics when better lighting is available so you can get full effect. Things I got done include:

 

Valve Cover (Gold)

Mounts (Gold)

Strut Forks (Black)
