Loved that little red '89(?) CRX pict. Too bad it's chopped down to be a boom box car. -Monte  |  IP: Logged Dean Kollet Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 591 From: Florida State University Registered: Jul 2003 posted 05-06-2005 07:38 PM                     Richard, every day you remind me more and more of Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force....  |  IP: Logged Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 05-06-2005 07:57 PM                     I was thinking that myself...  |  IP: Logged Dean Kollet Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 591 From: Florida State University Registered: Jul 2003 posted 05-06-2005 08:00 PM                      |  IP: Logged Jason Black Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1723 From: Myrtle Beach, SC, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 05-08-2005 07:23 PM                        Monte, You'd be surpised... I had Intraxx springs on the CRX.. rode not much different than stock! It rode like it was on rails.. curves were a BLAST... It was a '90 btw.. but good eyes.. The 88-89 were identical years and the 90-91 were as well. The only REAL difference bwteen the 88/89 and the 90/91 were the rub strips down the sides were wider on the 88/9 than the 90/1.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 05-08-2005 09:32 PM                     ..stiffened up that front end with good anti-sway connections there that little red monster hugged the road without any sway-just "glided" around the corners with fun and a little "G-force" on the side. -Monte  |  IP: Logged Jason Black Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1723 From: Myrtle Beach, SC, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 05-08-2005 09:57 PM                        yeah, the DC strut brace helped stiffen up the front end 'roll' a little.. Never did put beefier sway bars on..  |  IP: Logged
