It really doesn't help that my tires are ancient and really crappy, as I was only doing 20mph. I wasn't expecting that! I need tires.

Oh no, we have ourselves a drifter. J/K

Actually, yes I am. I actually fly models though. Here's a pic of one of mine without a cowling...

And you can see some here behind my CRX...

Actually, I should re-word that. I'm into full scale flying, but I'm more into RC stuff, not just planes though.

Hahahaha, I have one of those too, I even made my own exhaust for it. It braps like it's bridge ported.

Mine's the first generation one though, it has side intake and peripheral exhaust, like our Mazda engines. The newer ones are fully perihperal ported.

Welcome...I was actually a great fan of the crx...it was the only honda at the time true to its purpose...and prob what most rx7 owners commuted in after they decided to take the 7's off the road for repair...lol. Great car...was this the one on ebay not too long ago???
