Race Cars under Development...
 
Well, we now have a goal (due date) May 11th is our first import event. Me, Beau and (Nick) will be trying to get our cars ready for this event. I have been slacking off during winter and it seems spring is nearly here, we both have lots of work to do, and will be taking lots of pics of our progress.

After this weekend, I got the new ZC tranny (welded diff) back in, with some new cam gears installed. We got tons of work to do, lots of wiring, piping, lines blah blah all to do. The next big step is putting the cages in.

I will try to take some pics of beaus car soon.. Gotta show off his crazy ass new manifold he made.. ;) (I still think mine is sexier :P)

I will be running a custom Saab Air-Water IC, located inside of the car :o (charge pipes go in, then out) of the firewall.

My goals are 10.99 :)

Any left over parts?... oh sure, we got lots of ---- laying around but most of it's garbage ;)

that's nice.
Where I used to live there is a guy with a CRX that runs 11.38 with slicks. the car is street legal with sound system etc.. and it looks pretty nice too.
I don't know what engine he got in there but I've heard it was a B16....It's turbocharged..

www.curstreet.com check it out there is like 30 video's in there to.
There is an old 3rd gen civic turbocharged running the 1/4 mile in the video section. That thing is Ghetto....hahaha no bumper

Jeff, you better put something on that radiator hose there man, looks pretty close to the manifold. But everything looks very "sexy".
