I am just wondering how many ppl from here are planning on attending. If me and my bf get our cars done, they both will be there. If not then we will just take his CRX. But anyways I really wanna know...

PFCfutrell, do you have a pic of your car? I'm getting Eibach Prokits when I do my swap, haven't seen these springs on a CRX. Thanks.

Actually the pro-kit was under *coming soon*, i'm thinking about their drag launch springs instead as i'm getting more into drag-racing than autocrossing. I'm curious as to how the drag launch springs ride on the street... guess i'll find out!

Missed the "coming soon" text. I'm more interested in everyday driving performance/autocross than drag racing.
BTW, did you paint your calipers yourself? I was thinking of doing that now that you can actually see them behind the rims...

*LOL*
Yeah, i painted them myself and it turned out kind of humerous. If you're not me then i would go ahead and buy the 500 degree engine paint "Ford Red" from AutoZone and paint your calipers. If you're me then go ahead and find some 1200 degree paint like i should have, i like to treat a couple local roads like road courses which puts EXTREME pressure on the brakes and get's that paint REALLY hot, to the point it starts to burn off. The good news is that as hard as i push my brakes they suffer absolutely no fade even when the paint is smoking off of the calipers. If you can find the color you want in 1200 degree paint then it's worth it, you can't see anything wrong with mine (the paint burned off on the inside of the caliper) so i'm still happy with how they turned out. It made sense for me to paint them as i had them off the car when i was changing the rotors, pads, and brakelines. I'll post pic's as soon as i get them developed.
