H22's are fun, but that money you used for the H22 swap is a good amount more than a rebuild for the B16 isnt it?

Id probably just try to find a gsr/itr shortbock, or just do a proper lsvtec/b20vtec build.

yeah i know. the amount of money people want for a short blocks is way more than i'm trying to spend. hopefully my block is ok b/c i've been looking at just buying an itr crank, rods, and will probably need over-sized pistons. i've found a crank, rods, and pistons for $200, just waiting on people to email me back. found another b16b short block, but the guy wants $1500, or $750 for the bare block.

i hear that! it's been a few years since i sold my crx. and my s2000 is a nice sports car and all that, but to me, it just doesnt have the soul that my old rex had. i'd rather track a stockish CRX than have a hardparked s2k with all the s2k momma's boys that ive been forced to meet up with.


function over form, truely!

hahaha i totally understand where you are coming from. my fit has go kart handling like the crx does, but all the fit meets i go to, the majority of the people are all cheese dicks that only care about what kind of MPG they can get out of their car. i think the majority of the crx crowd are motorsport purists.

damn, super nice rex! i think i am going to run the pword jdm front tower bar too.

and you dont seem like a douche so +1 to the fit community haha

i love the rnr's but i have to run spacers to clear the spoon brakes. makes the handling a little sloppy. i loved how my fit felt with my volks. thats why i am going to run them on my rex. because the feel of them is just that much better. here's the volks on my fit.
