Honda CRX w/ Evolution VII Conversion

[ElRxBandito]

Ok, here it is, a project that sounds real odd, but seems to look real nice, I have a large line of modifying, and scratchbuilding ahead of me, but I'm confident it will come out nice.

List of planned modifications:

Evolution VII front end
Highly detailed turbo B18C5
Rollcage (8 or 10pt)
Custom dash
Nismo wheels (to be painted)
3 12in subs w/ amp
Spare wheel storage
Custom wing
Custom roof scoop
Custom hood (bonnet)
Custom Black Widow 2 widebody
N1 full exhaust system
LED head, tail, and runing lights
Underglow system (maybe)
Custom brakes
Custom rear window air ducts
And hopefully more as I progress.

Here's a couple photos to get everything moving.

Here's how it is as of yesterday. (can see the custom dash, roof scoop, and widebody in progress)


Here's a shot of the motor. (the turbo is slanted to allow everything to be flush with the low ride height)


The Nismo wheels to be painted.


Stay tuned.

CRXs are near imposible to find now, Hotwheels made a 1/18, about a year ago? And you can find them on Ebay now for about 30-45$

I go to the swap meet and get my CRX's for like $15.00, so if you can do that I'd highly reccomend it. I have 3.

Yeah, it's all over Japan isnt it.
The interior will have twin racing seats, custom dash, 8 or 10pt rollcage, and a custom spare wheel bay.

Yes, it is the FnF Evo front end, and I just whipped out my dremmel and showed it who was boss.

A few more photos.

Here's another shot of the body, but this time showing off the brakes up front with the MASSIVE calipers.



And here's my LED package, only a total of $7.00.

Quick shot.
Here's a close shot of how it looks with the Nismo wheels, the motor is also in place, and if you look close enough, you might be able to see the turbo hiding in there.
