Default Still 2wheel drive

Some of ye are aware of my current project. Some aren't.
I've had an 88 Si Shell for some time and I've been longer thinking about what I was going to do with, than the length of time, Ive been currently fabricating this.
I'll let the pics do the talking for now, and I'l keep adding pics as it moves on.
The power plant will be a H22 turbo.
Staying 2wd, but making use of the weight and been different. lol

This is the plan.

Original Crx. I sold the engine and fitted it to a Bow Shape Civic.

Most up to date Pic

So I'm making a mid engined rear drive Crx.
I'm using the front of a eg3 civic, and placing into the rear of the crx. This will allow me to use the front Hubs, to support Drive Shafts, along with a good base for engine alignment.
I taught about a space frame design, but I'd imagine it would require huge trial and error, to figure out wheel alignment.
Cutting of Civic

Bringing it home.

Cutting the firewall of the front chassis legs, was not easy. I welded in support bars before any of this was done.

Trying it out for size


Getting closer


I have also made a full weld in rollcage. Its added security for strenght. Its not fully completed yet, as I'm putting the car on a Spit during the week, and will be seem welding, painting etc.


Hope ye like
