I personally would atleast paint the CF hood White. this is what it looks like right now.. really aweful cause he just put the body kit on and it's green, Turbo kit and fully built B16- motor coming in the next few months..

He wants it to be a show car and a race car at the same time... lol...

Well he is working on the motor little by little he's got about 200whp right now. Should be running 12's at the track, but he can't get grip when he launches and spins tires like crazy... (IMO needs dragradials or slicks) After the paint job comes the building the motor.. he just wanted to get the paint job done first- He will be going with a Full Race Turbo kit to push about 400+whp.

I think the car is cute... it's soo little... i just want to pinch it's cheeks..
I want a car in midnight blue :)

I am sure once the car is painted T's shit will look good. He's on the way to pick me up to go to the 305sr bbq today.

Trust me we will be there. I don't know if we are going in his girls car, his car or both... it would be crowded if we went in the crx cause it's only got 2 seats and we got his girl, me and my son "Leo" short for Leandro... lol

I saved your # to my phone... 239-398-4303 is my cell.

I told his girl that today.. i was like.. let's convince him to do Black Pearl w/Limo tints and black/gunmetal rims... the "Invinsible Car"

Oh Yea.. he is going with the Turbonetics Turbot kit-not full race... my bad.. had to correct myself. I'll be getting him the hookup and hopefully a good discount than the $3500+ he is looking to spend for the kit.--

3500 for a POS turbonetics kit is rediculous, for less than that he can get this which puts the turbonetics kit to shame

my friend is sponsored by Turbonetics and has never had issues with it in his 10 second hatch...

Plus my boy T- has had troublefinding a turbo for his CRX- besides Full-Race. he says only Turbonetics makes one that will fit or some shit.. I don't know cause I haven't don the research on it. LOL

Not sure.. I asked him that yesterday... i don't really know why. I told him if he is going for the 2 tone affect he needs to paint the CF hood white, too... or just all one solid color

its not an outdated kit, a peakboost or fullrace kit will be much more efficient, with higher quality components. it would be even better to piece together a kit.

I guess my friend is not picky when he gets his kits for free...

I personally haven't done the research for a Honda cause I don't own one, so I can't talk about what I don't know... But thanks for the info.
