Default Got myself a new REX

Well I sold my civic and got myself a CRX DX. Any opinions on what I should do to it...? For now I'll probably put MPFI on it untill I get my B16A.

Good. Southern Ontario needs some more CRXs in the right hands.

Not going show huh?? Championship white/gunmetal wheels/etc etc makes it run just like a Si-R!!! Swear to god.... J'k, but to me, sounds like you're going show with it. I'm sure you have plans to put some Go into it, but what you just said SCREAMS show car....

Not all JDM stuff is GO. A lot of this JDM stuff has become "the new image" for a lot of people. They knock old fads like altezzas etc, when in a year or so, when the JDM look is out, they'll be knocking that too. (Note, i'm not calling anyone out or anything...just kinda giving an assesment of the import scene as I've seen it lately)

Congrats on the CRX man, They're really fun to drive. I Wish I didn't wreck my black one....

I always like to be different.. But don't worry, there will be lot's of power to back it up too.. B18A w/b16a head.. mmm

Thats cool. Do you intend on running any kind of FI?? If not, do you plan on building the motor, like raising CR, port/polish, etc.

Tell you what I'd like to see around here...(there maybe one already, but I doubt it b/c I haven't heard anything about it), I'd like to see someone take like a B16 or something a stroke it out to like a 2.0 or something crazy like that. I've heard someone makes a kit for it. IF that is true, I think that would be a badass setup. B/c a stock hybrid is cool, but its not going to be like a 11 sec car or anything. (Fast is subjective though)

Good luck w/ your swap and hopefully it won't be a PITA to do.

Haha, ya, a couple of them Si motors eh, you can use some of my **** if ya want, but you need to throw some $$$ my way. I want the head I think, maybe not though. I may try an at home port and polish job to it with a dremel tool and some polishing ****, as well maybe attack the throttle body. But I think I'm too lazy.

Oh ya, welcome to the dark side....muhahhahahaha. I stopped by yesterday and your civic was still there homo, did you just get it yesterday?
