Default

buy the hf

fix your 90 si

get a motor for the hf

keep both

free or $200 isn't **** and it is nice to have 2 cars so you can always be working on one...or you'll always have 1 that runs if one breaks down

Why isn't your Si running? yah Hf are the light model Cr-X when it comes down to wight but like you said you will miss the sunroof and why are you going backwards, from a Si to a Hf, most people will go from Hf to an Si but its all up to you do what you want

hf always owns si. Racecar are meant to only have basics.

This may have been the case about 15 years ago. But nowadays, almost nobody runs a CRX with a stock engine anymore. And with swaps being as simple as they are, HF models are being snatched up due to their light weight. Especially the 1988 and 1989 models. So go for that $200 shell. Especially if it is in good shape.
