The EVO's competition *cough*

Yeah right! But anyway, here is my WRX SW:

This is my daily driver. Only modification is the addition of an STi exhaust.

Hey Robbie! I think we need more people here :D

Good looking car! I'm a little partial to the Sedan's myself (Davis still won't give me his car...), but I'm diggin the wagon! We all need to get together for dinner sometime..

[Kurt_W]

Now repeat after me...

"Gah-rage Qwa-een"

[daveb91]

SVX still for sale Kurt? There was two in the Bulletin Board last week.

[RallyEX]

Great looking SVX! Always had a soft spot for those cars...

Pics of the hondas too, perhaps? :)

The rot box in action:

Thats the only picture I can find online for the Civic, and there aren't any of the CRX. I'll discribe them though:

Civic-phantom gray-dent hood, replaced hood, fender, bumper (all previously red and poorly repainted.) Rust on the rear quarters, scratches in the paint. I.E. rough...anyone want ot buy it? Its formerly a CX but it has a EX drivetrain, front brakes and swaybar. EX cluster as well.

CRX-Rio red...well, some of it is...mostly rust free TX car w/ a B16. Still working on getting it to run right (basically had to go back through and fix all the previous owner's screwups.) Its getting there, hoping to make it my auto-x car once its finally going.

New addition in the next week or so will be a 91 Miata, should be fun once I repair its deficiencies .

[RallyEX]

What kind of problems are you having with your B16 swap?

We need to get together, I'm having a few issues with mine too... maybe we can help each other out :)

[Kurt_W]

Well, when I finally got the car back together and pluged the PR3 in, I got a code 0; the ECU was junk...severely over-fueling and 3200 rpm redline.

So I converted the car to OBD1 (my old 89 Si was one of the early OBD1 converted cars and I still had my conversion harness for that car.) At this point I had a friend convert a p28 to P30 form, but he burned the chips wrong so I'm waiting for him to send me replacement chips...he can be kinda slow from time to time though...

Basically I'm just sitting here waiting for the chips. I'm hoping once I have the right chip and have it in the ECU that the car will run correctly. If it doesn't, then I'm going to be real unhappy.

How about yourself?

Well, I've got a B16 swap. The car runs, but vtec isn't kicking in (i know what the problem is, vtec pressure switch issue that I'm working on this weekend). I'm converted to OBD1 and using a P28 ecu, but the car is running REALLY rich. I'm not sure if the ECU is kicked into safe mode because of the vtec not working, or if I may have a bad 02 sensor or something. Car runs so rich that it will sometimes almost choke to death at certain points in the fuel map under full throttle.

The car is truly not ready for mass consuption yet... still needs much work.

Pretty soon Kurt you will have enough cars for a used car lot.

What do you mean "Pretty soon..."? ;)

RallyEX: Yeah, I have run my CRX on a stock P28 (with a 1 wire O2 and the VTEC sensors unattached) and it runs poorly. Very rich and idles at about 1200 rpm. I have also tried a PR4, thats no great improvement, still very rich and idles poorly. I suspect there may be a problem with the EAVC, though it doesn't have fluid in it, which makes me wonder if that could be a problem...needless to say, I'm hoping the P30'd P28 will be a magic bullet.

Nice Ride.

Thanks Adam.

I meant to get a look at your Si Saturday night but by the time we got back from recovering Tim's hatch you were in the process of leaving. :?

[Feedman]

Hey no problem dude. It isn't exactly running right as of yet. Major exhaust leak...wrong gasket for the turbo...to lazy to take it all apart when my 16g should be here within the week, and I will have it fixed and back on the road running strong...
