my installer is me... but thanks for the advice. The billboards will be for show, as I will put a set of better tires down the road...

I have some people helping with my motor build and tune, I will have a shop set up the suspension and ride height. I put together ERA 626 and have had zero issues with the car in 16 years... The build is half the fun for me... I plan on through inspection of the entire drivetrain when I get the car in september.

Yeah, but that was an ERA. A CSX car is a whole new adventure in reliability.

I inspected the car, it looks like a very solid car, but time will tell.
Example, the fit and finish is equal to or better than my ERA, the steering feels very good. It has a Kirkham rear differential, the drive train appears to be installed correctly but I will check every nut and bolt personally. The paint job is 100% perfect.

But.. I have no clue what fuse does what or what the relays do. But over all the car is very nice, I have read some stories about quality issues, this car seems good. I am extremly picky about my car I cant find any issues... yet.


I dont know what your comment is implying but I have owned an ERA for 16 years, after reading here I started to have concerns about the CSX cars. After my inspection of the car today, I am completely happy and the quality is excellent
But best of all its a CSX not a copy of a CSX.
