I agree, CRX's are cursed....my friends CRX is ALWAYS broken. Everytime we fix it something else happens....but then again, my EG does too.

i always thought my crx was cursed. there is always something wrong with it, im constantly fixing it. but i guess its because im always trying to squeeze every ounce of hp from it.

lol.. other than engine space, I would say that theres not much difference..

But, from experience.. I would say that CRX's have always been ***** to me.

It may be because my first 6 cars were crx's and were my learning experiences.

I would rather work on my EG than a EF though. More room under the hood.

The CRX's are old cars, once you get everything in working order, its all good.
