When you mention Initial D or Wangan Midnight to any ricer, most definitely, it will always spark a conversation. You’ve got a humble Toyota 86 and a passionate Datsun DevilZ, how about some Honda love? Well, While browsing through my saved pictures, I went through a Honda folder and found this picture of a promising Mid-engine, wide body CRX circulated the internets months or years ago..if you don’t remember, here’s the picture..
Then I found some scans I saved of a 2-volume manga tittled King by K. Shimura. It was about a Takumi lookin’ school teacher who converts his 1st Gen CR-X from FF to MR to become the “king” of the Keisuke touge pass.
I was hoping that the CRX stayed with the FR layout and twin cam VTEC but it had a modified mid-mounted Subaru boxer. I liked that it had a custom wide body kit, and SSR MK2s on a 1st gen CRX.
Here are a couple more scans I saved. I wish I had the full scans of the comic but these are all i could find. I asked around if these could still be purchased and found no luck, they were sold out. Well, this is all to you Honda-heads who wished there was a manga about a Honda, here you go guys…pieces of the pie.
Oh snap, wangan NSX watch out!
this dude doesn’t believe in sharing the road with 2 wheelers; perhaps the bike was too slow.
compared to Takumi, I’m guessing this dude doesn’t use the gutters either.
unfortunately, that’s all I have. If anyone has more scans of this specially with the CRX against other cars, please do send them our way; Post it or message us on our Facebook wall. k tnx!
