I'm 5'11" or so. I've always been comfortable in my EFs.

Anyone ever experience a "re-birth" of sorts with your car?

My buddy and I swapped transmissions out of my CRX. My grind-every-gear-pop-out-of 3rd-pos-S1 tranny for this mint J1 that I picked up a couple of years ago. I also purchased a Skunk 2 dual bend shifter and **** and the Energy Suspension shift linkage bushing kit. That combined with my Circuit Hero lever extension made for a happy drive home. What a difference...feels like a whole new car...100% better.

Thats my "re-birth"

I "re-birth" my car like every two months


by the way anyone in the so-cal area want a rear disc set up. Its either from a Si or a DA. Comes with new slotted rotors and everything needed. $150
Has oem LCA for rear sway bar and I think the sway bar as well. I have to double check.

I'm undecided if I want to do the swap or not from drums.

Yeah, CRX's have a lot of room for what it is. But that's because it's a coke can with doors. S2000's have a lot more crash **** in them I'm sure.



Pics to show off in case I go thru with my sale.
z3 roadster > s2k

appearance -wise

I don't know which one is quicker but I would think the roadster
