Hi

Post by crxdriver » Sun Oct 08, 2017 9:34 pm

Hi, though i would give myself a slight introduction. I recently inherited a 5th gen and am loving it very much. I also have 2 CRX's which i love. A OE+ minter with 83k and a 188k track turbo beast which is currently half way through being restored. My runabout is a Corolla e10 turbo.

The lude only gets driven in the dry and has been garaged since new until my ownership. Just hit 62,000 miles. I am getting another garage built soon so i can put it back into the dry. Since ive owned the car. I have fitted a full motegi kit. motegi wheels need to be refurbed before putting on. I also installed some eibach pros on today with koni shocks. ad08rs to go on the new wheels.

When i got the car:

Thanks. Yes the rears was one of the first thing to go. As was quite a few other chrome bits not to my taste. I loved my dad, but really.. Fake chrome bonnet vents. They came off quick fast! As did the chrome wipers, chrome GB, chrome wiper spoilers and im sure there was more lol.

Thanks for all the welcomes. I do feel welcome now :D I will post new pics of the lude up when done. Im hoping to convert to a manual also as auto is not really my thing. I know its a pain but it will be worth it for me. I do love driving the lude. The dark red interior is a really nice place to be.
