Daily driver????

ok....who thinks an 88 crx with an H22 or b18c could be a daily driver?

if so:
*what changes to the suspension need to be made to get it to sit properly?
*is there a lot of understeer?
*what modifications to the enginebay need to be made to have the swap work (battery relocation...no a/c...etc)?

thanks

first of all you jerk these were my ideas! I wanted them to be a secret. you'd need to have a tougher suspension in the front because ot he weight difference of the H22 im pretty sure and if your doing a swap like that your not going to have ac. lastly under steer? just learn how to drive!
lovingly your dave

you concited bastard
why is it you think everytime someone on the board posts something you think it relates to you! if you ever came out to a meet you would know Cantonagod and i have been talking about that (b18c1 Crx)since I first joined the club
my first ICQ chats with him were about the blue CRX on honda tuning
so get off your parinoid high horse and back to reality:fustrated

and thank you for answering my questions

do I hear 2 loving couples bitching at each other? Hhahahahahah

umm...as a daily driver I would choose the B18C simply because you could probably still be able to keep the A/C (A/C is a god's gift to man/woman ), and still have insane amounts of fun with it

An H22 would fit, but you're looking at custom mounts (dunno if PlaceRacing or HAsport has them sorry ). And you'd probably have to get some good dampening adjustable struts so you can dial up the stiffness a little for the fronts.


B18C : daily driver
H22A : partial daily driver (if you can stand the heat during summer without A/C)

were you referring to me? hahahaha

but posh or not, A/C = no sweat..... see who smells better after a day 30+ deg. day next year Then we'll see who's "posh"

Well see, you could have A/C but not turn it on, at least you have that choice. But hey, I'm not driving it If you can stand driving around in summer time with no a/c then.. go for the H22

?

Stick your guns with an EG hatch!

CRX H22, one bad *** fast car...

But as a daily driver?
Depends on what you're willing to put up with.
CRX H22 is basically a dragster.

Are you planning to do some 1/4 mile?
If so, go with it, you'll be damn happy.

You want an all around buildable car?
EG 4 LIFE!!!
