Well, heres some info on my pos crx,

its a 1986 dx crx, was red when my buddy got it, he swaped a d16a1 motor in it and ran nitrous for a while, he rebuilt the motor and not long after that i got the car from him for cheap.
i drove it around as a daily driver with just arp goodies and zc head crap with a 75 shot, ran a best of 13.2 @ 106 in Sacramento when my friend had it.

I got bored of the car, and the transmission was super loud from 5th gear bearings being fucked. my friend had previously put a obx lsd in the transmission so no need for that.

My goal is to have around 300-320whp on pump gas and 400+ on race gas, we will see how my stock cams do, i plan on running delta 272s and supertech springs/retainers later on...

So we pulled the swap out to fix the trans, and build the motor for boost, heres the ricer list

Engine block d16a1/dohc zc
Std vitara pistons
fjt i beam rods
arp head studs
clevite bearings std
all new rings/seals/gaskets
new w pump

All machine work done by me at work free
polished crank, decked block, hot tanked, honed, notched block,
welded -10an fitting to back of breather
parkinized cams, polished journals,
complete valve job, new stem seals, decked head.

Running a pretty stock head for now other than having a chris m 74mm tb and spacer
with my ported 89 intake manifold

Boost stuff
homemade manifold-
borg warner s256 turbo with bullseye exhaust housing
dsm bov
sik fmic i got from dustin/turbohf
custom charge pipes/3" exhaust
any boost gauge

3 bar map sencor
obd1 dizzy, conversion harness and running ec tune
injector clinic 850cc injectors
walbro inline fuel pump
ebay rad and slim fan
and some other shit im forgeting

trans,
all new bearings
, new 5th gear and syncros,
 custom oil mod for 5th gear outer case,
 obx lsd

here are some before pics and pics of current progress

So far after taring everything down ive replaced

Front ball joints,
wheel barings
inner/outer tie rods
put 3" arp wheel studs in the front
replaced all bushings with energy suspention ones
new front rotors/pads
new drums/shoes
new master cly
13" steelies with stock hubcaps
painted engine bay black

and i just built the block today, everything specked in great and turned out good.
Didn't get the head done at work, didnt have time to cut the seats on friday, so i plan on doing it next week and puting the head together. then puting it on next week.
Hopefully my transmission will be done soon, and my clutch will be here early next month so the motor can go back in.
Then i can start progress on finishing up the turbo setup.
Should be fun.


Pic of my friends he351 and shorty in my car before i pulled the motor, still with a red engine bay...

IT will be tuned by dave lee, and my goal is to have it on the road in june... i welded my valve cover -10 bungs on also, More updates soon to come...

This build has hotness written all over it!

[ratcityrex]

Looks like it will be a great project. The only thing I would change would be the -10 where the breather box was. I think that you will be blowing some oil out of that hole and filling your can since the origanal black box was baffled. Other than that this build is on point, and total sex!  Jew

[90turboteg]

ya its coming alog, thanks nogs, ill have pics of geting the head on next week, the valve cover and turbo crap. hope to have it in soon. and more pics of the car. i did bafle the fitting on the back, and im also running a fitting to my oil pan, so anything that does make it in will drain back. Cant wait to get the thing on the road, the rally subaru is geting old.

[ratcityrex]

So you put a bafle in b4 you welded the bung on?

[90turboteg]

ya its kind of weird, made it so any oil draining couldnt make it in there. its weird though, because people keep saying how much bigger of a combustion chamber cc my d16a1 head is but we put my head next to an a6 and there was really no difference. i just think no one wanted to take the time to check it because no one cares about these motors. but i guess theres maybe something im not seeing

just ordered my clutch, now waiting on my transmission from gman, and resurfacing my flywheel this week at work. want to have the motor in early next month

[ApexSilver06MR]

build is lookin good.   

those rods iz gangsta nigga!

[crxvtec91]

Love the build, are those the long I beam rods?

Ask Chris M if he has a obd1 Zc intake manifold as they flow better.

my shit from the racecar

[bigdaddyvtec]

ya its kind of weird, Im reallllllllllllly FAT

[90turboteg]

ya they are the long rods, i have a 74mm tb on my 89 intake manifold, so im good on that. if im going to upgrade i plan on making a sheet metal one with velocity stacks. 

ya its kind of weird, Im reallllllllllllly FAT

 just like the rest of the nw crew  but my cars not a boat anchor

[90turboteg]

well, got the head all done today at work, surfaced it, valve job, cleaned it. new stem seals... and threw it on the head with arp head studs and cometic head gasket today. got it timed, bolted the intake manifold on. gotta put the 74mm tb on tomorrow, put the inner timing covers i forgot before i timed it on, and get all the nick nack shit on the motor. still waiting for my transmission to be finished, and my clutch should be here any day

[ratcityrex]

every thing looks good, but that fram filter has got to go!

[90turboteg]

it was free, and its just for brake in, im going to be running honda after i change the oil and all the assembly lube and crap is gone. it will do the job til then. ya i want to button everything up tomorrow, and have to take my flywheel to work to surface it. cant wait, its coming along

[ratcityrex]

Nice to see it coming along. Should be a fun ride. What turbo you gona end up using? Is this gona be your dd, or a track car?

[90turboteg]

im running a borg warner s256 ett turbo, got it for a good price, and its tits, but my buddy has a garret t3/t4 60trim w/.63 ar exhaust that needs seals, i was thinking of picking it up for cheap and rebuilding it to run it. not sure yet, both will make the power i need. I guess we will see what happens next month, going to be building some crazy custom manifold for it.

and for what the car is, well its my racecar, but im going to drive it alot this spring/summer because its alot better than driving my pos Subaru rally car around. but as soon as i get something better to drive, i plan on trying to make more than 400whp with it. for next season. id be happy to hit around 400whp on race gas this season, we will see, if i don't with my stock head, then i will end up getting the deltas and supertech springs/retainers and see how much that helps.

[danz]

best be bringing this shit to mission.

RHMT show down.

[90turboteg]

X a muthafucking thousand.

[90turboteg]

thanks nogs, its coming alog slowly but will hopfully be all done by june. i cant wait to take it to mission when its all done, going to be some sad people :yes:

TRUTH! 

[90turboteg]

if i pulled about 1000 dollars out of my ass, and didnt have bills for the next paycheck i could make it to the dyno day, but no im most likly not going to make it boosted. im going to ride down with my buddy eric, we are building our vitara setups in the same shop, but he started a while ago, so its almost done. 90 hatch z6 with he351 vitara setup, pretty dam nice setup, all we have to do is some misk wiring and button it up and it will be good to go for the dyno day, other than dave doing a street tune.

We should make a august dyno day too damit  :yes:

going to button everything up on the motor this weekend, and surface my flywheel next week. then get my clutch on when it shows up, and my friend thats rebuilding my trans is taking forever so hopfully it will get done soon....

i havent decided on what i want yet, lmk what u nogs think i should do. i dont really want to go with a run of the mill manifold, because my cars not quite run of the mill...
