lol, love how the jackass moved the radiator to the driver side because he didnt have room for it with the turbo faced the other way. wonder if he knows the turbo bolts on both ways?

it's one of those sidewinder manifolds to it puts the turbo over to the passengers side the way he bolted the turbo is the easiest way to run the downpipe with what's there.  I bet theres some serious sctech artistry on the radiator hoses though.

I remember back in the mid 90's i used to read lowrider magazines and there was an occasional integra or convertible civic, Usually they had to reinforce the frame because the roof kept it rigid, If they didnt and used hydros the frame would buckle.

Thats something a mexican would do.

What do people like do when it rains...? It doesn't seem to have an actual roof. I've seen maybe 1-2 hondas converted to convertibles that had tops, I just don't get it.

I have a friend that picked up a mint ass 91 civic ex 4 door from some dude that got all dunk and cut the top of the car off, I think he payed 450 for it. Its kinda pimp to go cruzing around in but it feels like a wet noodle when he trys to take a corner fast.... :noel:

Fixed.

Look at an Cabrio (j.h.christ daily's one) or early 90's Celica convertable.

I like it.  Does need a full cage with door bars though.

The kit i'm not a big fan of.  The diffuser is plain and the sideskirts dont match at all.

Dunno why but the only 3 hondas i like with kits on them are the fit, nsx and s2k.  The rest just look out of place with them.

That would explain why JD longed for a convertible miata

cage it and run it.  In FL,  that "no top" shit doesn't fly.  Either ur interior gets 100+ degrees, or u get rained on, and if u park under a tree, it gets pooped on/in

And with no top, there's nothing to stop some cock bag from stealing it.

It looks like a fun car if it runs right, that oil spot looks like it might be synthetic lol  That leak would need to be fixed.  I'd drive it....not everyday

What about the CRX TT? I can't find any good pictures, but back in the day when I was on automotive forums there was a guy with one. Looked cool with the top down, gay as aids with the top up.
