too agressive?
hey im only 15 1/2 and i was about to buy an 88 crx si w/ a b16 swap (that passed CA smog lol) and when i told him this was gonna be my first car, he said he couldnt reccomend me buying it. he said its really fast and strong and has a really aggressive clutch, and a new driver would have a tough time w/ it. it sounds believable to me, is it true?

Truthfully, it all depends on the person. Frankly, I wouldn't put it past you seriously injuring yourself or others with a car like that. Only speaking from experience.

thats the way to go! i'm 17 and i had a 91 civic dx sitting in front of the house and it was missing the dizzy and exhaust manifold and my parents said you can have it if you fix it
but you learn alot of stuff about the car and its better if you get a stock and build it yourself alot of expereience especially if your car is rusted

Re: (spaceman)
ya i know, the one im lookin at right now is really clean. no performance mods either i think except for some exhaust. im planning on getting the car by the end of april, and practicing very frequently until i get my license some time in october. think i'll be able to master a bone stock one by then?

Re: too agressive? (d spamony)
yeah i agree with all the above.
you are only 16.... learn how to drive really well 1st and learn your basics about honda motors then when you get a decent swap like a b16 you'll appercaite it more and know how to take care of it.
it's all about the journey in getting there. I'm sure most would agree that if they had a b16crx right off the bat they would be different....... I know I would...

Re: (d spamony)
I would get it just be very very very careful.
16 year olds + a car is very danger I was 16 and was fucked up and lived through it so
my first car was a 91 STD 4 speed. Had it for about 3-4 years now have a swap go up as you get experience.
