aww your so modest bbarbulo...lol

a b18c5 in a crx would be sweet. You would be more than impressed with an ITR with I/H/E in a rex.
Plus you would have the good ole honda reliability, unlike boostin the d16. I shouldn't say that, boosted cars can be reliable if built right and no corners were cut to save money. |
go turbo!

Ask yourself what WHP range you want to be in, and what is the Power/Weight ratio you want to achieve.
Answer these 2 questions, then you will know whether your current engine is good enough or not. |
to me, in a CRX.... I think a B18C5 is the way to go' the car is light enough to make that a real asskicker
on a budget, B20 with cable B16 tranny would be hella good too |
all depends how much u have to spend :D
|
actually, you should get a huge aluminium wing for it first... some z3 fenders, a ram air hood, and tom's motorsports coilovers :D LOL
|
don't forget the Decals/stickers, HUGE whp jump! hehe:thumbup:

Stock crx + $5000 = 400whp?
GSR or ITR swap with labour is about $4-5K once you have everything sorted. With I/H/E that will net you between 160-180whp. Good luck. |
i am planning on doing all the work my self so theres no need to pay for this when u are capable.
dose'nt anyone do here do there own work? i dont think ive seen 1 person do all the work themselves isnt that wahts this lifestyle all about? i dunno any way im doing all the work my self and the 5000 is just for this summer and i do have like three jobs. whats the best possible option for me in the long run cuz i plan to have this car for a while and plz no more bashing i know im new but everyone deserves some degree of respect. i just need factual opinion not a bunch of bull **** |
