Here's a couple pics of some more parts i made to go on that CRX, the ones on there were functioning but the first piece (throttle cable bracket) wouldn't face the cable straight down, it was at an angle that looked funky. So, I made this piece to correct it
In the morning when there's no one sleeping i'll fire up the die grinder with a scotchbrite pad on it and knock the sharp edges off along with the rest of the Dykem
these were also taken with my cell phone
This is a piece i made because i thought the little piece holding the top of the radiator was just dead ugly (and you can see in this pic..it is
)
here's the side view of that same piece, only thing left it to bore the small hole in the top to 24mm, but again that's a louder process i'd rather do when no one here is alseep
hope you like them as much as i do, there's more time in them then what they are worth and i free handed these, just eyeballing where i needed to be, it's funny how accurate you can become to get two things within the same size down to .5mm after many years of machining (that's usually where i stop visually judging and measure on important pieces)
