hi hows it going

well i drive a 89 honda crx which as of last mallala track day will now be turned into track car a the moment i am going to do b18 conversion thanks to the guys i met at the track. they convinced me to go the conversion and then offered killer price on dc2 integra.

They pointed me here (ozhonda) and to gsr/evo club.

i ll keep it short for now
great to be here

Good work. Post up some pics!

So you doing the conversion yourself? I'm guessing the engine/car is from Pav?

Looking good man!

[mooshie]

Wow awesome lot of photos!

How does the oil cooler go in that arrangement? Any before and after temps at the track?

not to sure how well it worked i did box it so that i could get airflow through the cooler
sorry no temps i will start to log stuff at the track from now.

i have only been to track twice this year and both times there was something different with the or added too. so i will say once i have the basics set up then i can start to get serious.

yeah as well my brother and i will be doing the conversion and yeah that is pav s integra


will start basic with the conversion. and as money and time allows will progress to get cage installed, body strengthened, etc.

i really want to get the car on the track and get some enjoyment out of it.

i am trying to join gsr/evo club so as to maybe get a bit more involved, definately get cams license too.

ultimately i would love to enter a targa in my crx. maybe one day thats the dream

but for now i will have to settle with forza 4 and my custom made cockpit( at least i can use my 1200 dollar seat for something while it waits till the next trackday )

mad catz forza 4 steering wheel and 2 pedal set (officially licensed)
custom shifter extension
here a pic

now all i need is the hasport conversion parts

does any one have any recomendations for where to buy

my brother had bad dealings with 999 ( bought subframe brace which was in stock off ebay store but some 4 weeks later nothing had arrived low end behold they then told my brother that he had to wait untill their next container came in so he cancelled the order)

oh yeah its happening

Ok so I have moved house since last posting have much better shed with descent( understatement 6ft deep ) pit, the engine is in but I still need parts to complete the build, I have removed the fuel tank for the civic build and need to sort out the wiring for both vehicles http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/12/e7y6ege7.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/12/y4yry4ed.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/12/adyseges.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/12/2e3ube2u.jpg
You know it's unfortunate how hard this build is, conversion parts are not sold as whole kits example being not until I got Hasport engine mount kit did I find out I needed more parts like engine bracket and da rear gearbox bracket. Low and behold Honda aren't very helpful a all.
I am kind of back on track with things http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/12/yzagu2a7.jpg
Nice pit ay
