Two people from this forum know what it is.........keep your trap shut. don't ruin it for everyone.
A teaser for the rest of you.
I got a little frustrated with the "progress" on morris. The Morris project is NOT dead. I wanted something that I could do some of the faster events with and not have to worry about how I was getting to work the next day, if I cracked it up. This car currently fits the bill.
As it sits, it should be class 2, and very competitive there.
Probably won't have to worry about break-out times at the hill climbs(no cage YET).
It doesn't have a name yet.
It has a metal roof.
It does not have forced induction.
Hope to grab it this weekend. Pictures when I do.

Re: New project a comin'
Did you finally get a Honda and decide to come over to the dark side ?

Re: New project a comin'
You do realize that Morris is to have a b16 with an integra type R tranny, along with Honda suspension and brakes(at least in the front). So does that count as being over to the dark side yet....considering I started out with VW's and Audis.honda8790 wrote:Did you finally get a Honda and decide to come over to the dark side ?
So I do have plenty of Honda parts kicking around the house.

No, I didn't realize that was your plan for the Morris (I'm still a new guy ). Glad to here that is still in the works.

How'd you get away with another car in the driveway?

A friend of a friend wants to fix it up to give to an older gentleman in his parish.
Given that it's an auto and in decent enough shape, I thought that was a good use for it.

Re: New project a comin'
A b16 with an ITR transmission is still a blast. I would love to see it when it's finished. Power to weight ratio will be really nice too.sachilles wrote:I couldn't afford a K20 variant.
What's the make of the new project... you have to at least tell us that.
