NCchris Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 An early 260. Floorboards gone but surprisingly little rust anywhere else. I would like to consider this my introduction to you guys. I've been lurking for a while and consider this to be "the" Z board that fits my car's plans best. It will be a wip as I've almost got my *cough*turbo CRX*cough* done. First off, rust repair, then suspension and brake rebuild/upgrade, paint and finally powerplant. L6, SBC, I dunno yet. Interior is completely trashed too. Anyway hello from NC. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 sweet man! cool to see other early 260 guys around here. What is your VIN number? Mine is RLS30-12743 good luck on your 260! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280zwitha383 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 What have you done to your CRX? I hate the looks of them but their weight appeals to me (although not enough to outweigh the looks). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCchris Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 olderthanme, thanks for the encouragement. Vin is RLS30**9519 280zwitha383, I always kinda liked the CRX bodystyle......anyway, suspension consists of prokits, illumina's, poly bushings, rear swaybar (the HF did not come with one) front brakes from an integra (10.2 dia. vs 9 something) 99 Si wheels with Toyo Proxes T1S's. Now, the engine is a 95 DOHC 1.8 Integra motor. I have a 2 litre CRV motor on the stand with a T-28 turbo ready to drop in. Should be a 250 Hp 2000lb go cart. OBTY guys, this forum is so much more mature than the Honda forums. I like that a lot! chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillZ260 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 welcome, dont' remember my 260's vin but it was made in Jan 74 so it's probably a bit later, but still an early 74 chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
