I also want to mention I built every inch of this car myself.  It was never touched by a
shop and rides straight and true. It was also built on a college student budget.  I
started this build when i was 17 and i am now 19 and i just finished it.

Hey, I read the posts on Honda-tech.  What an awesome build!  I've been wanting to do one for a while.  I plan to start in six months.  Do you know anything about Denny Crabill's CRX for the Grassroots Motorports Challenge?  I've been studying both your builds and I'm coming up with a plan for sourcing parts.  Might have some questions along the way, I'd like to keep in contact during this build if thats cool...
