Helix paddle are great clutches. Not hard on the left for but will take plenty of abuse. I've done plenty of launches on them and no issues. I've got one in my gt4 too.
Clean both door switches and check the contacts in the light. I resoldered mine and it worked again but not for long so I bought a new one from Toyota.
Spot on. Great engines though c4's I put one in an eg a couple of years ago. On a dyno day it made 2bhp less than an ek9 with all the jap bolt ons but more torque. The c4 only had a edelbrok inlet mani and decat still on the stock eg 1.5 exhaust and air box.
Great project. Will you be changing to an injection tank if it was a twin carb? I had a 91 crx I vt years ago with only 27k miles when I got it. It was a minter.
If you want to do drag racing I would be getting the smallest wheel on I could like a 13 or 14 inch banded steely with the biggest slick I could fit width and profile.
