Thank you for watching my video, I appreciate the support !
Hey Jonathan! Im gonna miss her but cant wait to see it when your all done! I hope for the best and God bless! 😊
This is a great journey... thanks for taking us along! Looking great after TLC, excited for the swap
I have plenty more videos of the crx up already 💪 check the play list
Starting with stopping the rust is definitely the smart thing to start with. Mine is a California car 89 HF I had a 91 si it was z6 swapped turbo... this car with a k24 is gonna be a blast
Im guilty of doing other things before taking care of the rust.its hard to not mod the car! Lol. Im trying to stop rust that i come across. So its a step in the right direction. I need to make a video dedicated to rust...
Definitely the right car for that engine. I'm gonna enjoy these videos... As usual. 😁
More to come! Thanks for watching
Holy CRX Batman!😳 that is one labour of love right there. Nothing worthwhile ever comes easy I suppose.
Ain't that the truth! I've got a lot of work ahead of me. 🙏
Man I am so excited for the CRX you chose! Your editing skills have come a long way! Doing both windows and the shadow K24 were super cool.
Thank you. Appreciate it! 😊 glad you enjoyed the video. Plenty more content to come on the crx 👍
Awesome find Jonathan . Look forward to the transformation . 👍
Thank you ! Ill try to bring you guys along for as much as I can
I loved my CRX.
Built K24 in a CRX.... Danger is your middle name 😁 I like it. Looking forward to the build pal
You know its going to be crazy!! I cant wait! Thanks for watching
Look forward to following your project. Good luck.
Thank you . I'm trying to get this project going asap . Thanks for watching 👍
I have no doubt you'll have everything fixed up mechanically in no time. That rust will challenge you unless your holding out on some talent you haven't shown up yet. This will be a fun project.
The rust will definitely be a challenge. Just trying to keep my head up and try my best. Ill be sure to record as much as I can of the rust repair. 👍💪
Sweet! I haven’t seen a CRX in quite a while!
Definitely getting rare! Fun little cars!
Best advice on my end for a fellow old school Honda owner.. get everything from a DA integra.. looking forward for more of this crx 💪💪
Great wholesome content. Can't wait to see whats next
Theres plenty more videos already on my playlist 👍
Congrats on finding the perfect vessel for the k24! I can already tell, by the sound of your voice, that you feel like a kid again!
It really does make me feel like that! I feel like im 18 again . despite how shaky it felt driving home I drove with a smile on my face 😊
@@themechanic6117 It was supposed to be a joke... because you STILL ARE A KID!!!! LOL
@@EXOVCDS I'm a grown kid !! 😂
You wont be keepinit for a decade ..id cut rust out of wheel wells , and get the rocket bunny style widebody fenders riveted in ..carbonfiber hood..doors from cali or arizona...wrap in your chosen color... looks wicked and saved a ton in body work ,paint
I want to avoid body kits or riveting anything to the body. I will get a cf hood. Ill try to source new doors. The Q panels im going to try to repair . 👍
Pretty cool! Perfect project car.
It sure it. Its going to be fun! I want to get ahead of myself but then i remember... Crap i have to record lol
As far as the rust... that's not bad at all coming from the rust belt AND a 91! I see 2017 trucks in worse condition here. Lol
Nice over all! Looking forward to seeing how it all comes out. 👍👍
Exactly!! People just see the rust they dont consider the area we're in and the age of the car. It really is in decent shape! Im crazy excited about this! More to come on this car 👍
Well...the thing is...it's Allways MUCH more rust then what you can see...when you start to cut the rust... then the "fun" begins
Great car proyect men !!!
Thank you. Im really excited!
Curious to see how you fix the rust. That looks like such a tedious job. I'll look for the door handle tomorrow, I'll be in the garage!
Slow and steady is the way to do it. Body work cannot be rushed. Ill try my best. It would be nice if replacement Q panels were made for it.
Nice. Don't see too many of those gems anymore..
Thats true! Fun little cars. Im glad to have it😊
Can't wait to see it finished you need to make it rear wheel drive 😍
Thanks Leon ! Thats way too much work for me lol . I dont mind FWD
Hey the penetrating fluid doesn't damage any suspension rubber pieces or even the rubber brake lines? won't eat it out.. or make it weaker, I think the PB Blaster that AutoZone sells eats all the rust out from any metal surface and lubricates real good but I always try not to spray it on any rubber surface.. .
Ive used plenty of PB and ive never seen it eat or dissolve rust . its just a penetrant not a rust disolver as far as i know. Also ive never seen a rust penetrant eat rubber hoses.
Nice find! Hope this goes well for you.
Thanks! I have faith that itll turn out great. Just going to take time
This is gonna be siiiiick!!
💪💪 thank you. I have plenty more vids on the crx already
I’m glad you got a shell I learned my lesson after letting my motor sit for 2 years I had to redo my whole short block. It didn’t matter at all if I kept rotating and changing oil in it. Oil will not get everywhere and start to rust. Don’t build a motor and let it sit please.
Sorry to hear that. I actually over filled the engine by a lot. Point is to keep the crank submerged in oil. Hopefully this works. I just left a note on it to drain the oil before i do anything. Fingers crossed 👍
If this thing won't start on you after a really hot day check out the pgmfi relay. Sorry if you know about that already it might be commonly known
I didnt know about that so thanks for the tip . its been so long since I messesd with a crx so im unaware of common issues with the car. Appreciate any help I can get 👍
Congrats on the car Jonathan! Will we finally get to see you do your bodywork thing? 😉 Very chilled out vibe about this video ... I detect happiness 👍☺️☺️
Sure am happy. Drove the car home with a big smile on my face lol
Congrats Bro!!!!
Thank you 💪
Damn I want a crx too,very cool👍
Very cool cars! Even its its rough shaoe I enjoyed driving it home ! 😊
Nice to see you back my dude (:
Thank god for Japanese cars, without them there would be nothing worthwhile to drive.
Aint that the truth! 👍😊
Show us the bodywork ! Would be also great if you use single stage so there won't be any peeling in the future
Yes I plan on recording as much of the body work as I can . peeling cars isnt common over here. I think this car spent most of its life in a hotter area .
I can't wait man, let's do this.
I see Michelin tires, good sign that it was properly looked after.
Awesome cant wait but i have 2
Ill get it moving along as fast as I can 👍
Oil in the spark plug holes is not a valve cover gasket. Here is a video explaining how to fix that: ruclips.net/video/wYU8qtPzQOY/видео.html
Also, I'm sure that the HF did not have an MPFI engine so that engine has been modified and MPFI converted. I love the CRX. That is a great platform for an upgraded engine. I will definitely be watching the build.
dude you in Chicago land area?! I should visit your shop/garage!
Fuck yeah
💪
In short complete restoration. Lol
Well.... Kinda...yes lol
you can put in some money, really refresh it and sell it to Honda dealership?
I plan on keeping it
Ok
Bro I think I seen that car in my town of Valparaiso In.
Its possible. The car came from Hobart
I work in Hobart Jonathan
@@rrmech11 then im sure youve seen this car! Its a small world!
How much did he pay u? This thing is going to be a legend when it’s done!
Lol I wish someone paid me to take it! It'll be a long road but i have no doubt itll turn out nice👍
The mech a nic I’ll be here watching brother!
Bro where are u from
Ever heard of jack stands.
Yes. I own 4 of them. I use them every day while working on customers cars. I chose to not use those on my personal car. Dont worry i made sure to not put any body parts under the car incase the floor jack failed.
The mech a nic k as long as you think safety.. btw love the civic CRX.
@@Justme-jt1ef of course safety first.its a fun little car . I appreciate you watching
.
Can you please leave the vehicle exactly as is but drop that k24 in there and just rip that shit all around town
Definitely no body kits going on this thing. The body is going to look stock for the most part.
I had a bone stock exterior on my 99ek but ran a 12psi b series swap. Even kept the steelies with no hubcaps lol. Ah man I was garbage but that was really fun.
😂😂😂
Yeah.. get some coilovers. Do it stiffer. But keep the hight and out on some real good tires on the Steel wheels
@@hondamanvtec2894 sleeper status 👍 i like lowered cars that still look good. Not into slammed cars. Plus with a k24 ill need as much ground clearance so i cant got that low . i like a comfy ride also instead of rock solid
