  • After my 1988 CRX Si B16A transmission failed, I decided to pull everything out of the engine bay, re-paint it, and swap in a B18C Type R engine and transmission.

    Hi Seth,
    Excellent idea to take close-ups as a tutorial.
    It's great for the community, but it requires more shooting and time 😅

    Funny I remember you saying when finished with the last project you were thinking about redoing the engine bay in the 88 but not at the moment, looks like the 88 had other plans 😂

    please correct me if I am wrong. Originally the engine bay and under the hood does not have clear from the factory? Only the door jams are clear coated?

    • @CrxBreizh
      @CrxBreizh 7 месяцев назад +2

      that's correct...but it's so beautiful afterwards 😀.
      I did the same thing on my CRX Vtec.

    • @crxseth
      @crxseth  7 месяцев назад +1

      That appears to be the case. But clear coat will look better and last longer hopefully.

      ​@@CrxBreizh ​ thank you for confirming. I am restoring my 95 Civic and was thinking to to the exact finish as factory, no clear under hood and trunk. appreciate your helpful videos. ~ Mike

    • @crxseth
      @crxseth  7 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks. It took 3 days, but only 13 minutes of footage! A lot of the footage would have been very boring if I included it such as masking, washing, more sanding, etc.
