After drilling out a factory hole I was able to fit this grommet in and route the wiring into the fender here under the wiper motor.
I ran the wiring through the channel behind the fender and drilled out another factory hole to fit a grommet where the wires pop out.
Here's a close up to show how it's all mounted. I used an adhesive zip tie base to hold the wiring close to the car.
Headlights connected.
This is where I decided to stop for the night. Hopefully I can get a little work in tomorrow cause I probably won't get much work in this weekend. Monday-Wednesday next week is when I can really dive into it again.
This is the first time I've "tucked" anything, and the partial tuck was decided on a whim. If it had been planned and I could have researched it more I may have ordered some supplies for it.
Right now I'm just working with what I've got and figuring it out as I go along!!! :bigok:

same shit i did for my tuck i would have went the show route with all the nice heatsink etc.. that chase uses. but sometimes you just work with what you got plus i doubt your trying to earn points with the judges.

Thanks guys, I'm only working on it when I have the time and patience to do good work.
The final outcome should be nice. :bigok:
With that said, I had a little extra time to finish masking off the drivers side wheelwell and undercoat it.
While I was at it I cleaned the corrosion off the upper and lower battery brackets and sprayed them with undercoating as well.
The wrinkle black finish should look nice under the hood.
I also split the engine and transmission, and removed the old clutch/pp/flywheel.
Here's the freshly turned flywheel I'll be using. '92 cx unit. Lightest OEM d-series flywheel.
I should be able to finish up the mini wire tuck on Monday and hopefully get started on a few other things.
I'll keep you guys posted.
Stay tuned for more picture filled posts next time!!!

I thought it was about time I started posting where I'm at with this.
The CRX is mostly stripped down.
Most of the dash still to be removed, then doors and hatch.

Picked up a 91 ef hatch in trade, came with a high milage d15b2 that burnt oil and ran rough.
Upon inspection, found that cylinder 3 had low compression. Alternator was dead, distributer nearly fried, tps sensor and map sensors both bad, fouled plugs and incorrect plug wires.
Came with alot of...
It's been a while since I have been active on DSO, mainly because I moved to Hawaii as the worship pastor of a church. However that doesn't mean that I have given up on the world of Honda's, building heads, etc. I mean, I built a 91 wagon and shipped it to O'ahu so that I could enjoy my ride...

What's up DSO crew. I am just about to start my rebuilding project for my Z6 and just thought I'd post it up for anyone interested. I'll be asking for some opinions ( which I have read tons of on DSO and many other places ) but the point of this forum is to share with you guys and ask this...
