Default Cheap & quick CRX

Hello, I recently bought an 89 CRX Si with a DOHC ZC motor, stock Si tranny, and the stock pm6 ECU for only $1,000. I couldnt beleive the guy was selling it for that cheap considering that the car has tons of extras (headers,intake,catback exhaust) and it runs pretty good. I have a friend that was sprayin on his car, but blew it up, so he let me have his zex kit for free =P I hooked it up and went to a local track here and sprayed a 75 shot. I was running some really really bald street tires and my best ET was 14.5 @ 100 mph. Funny thing about this is that I only paid 1k in total! Just wanted to share my story with you fellas

I was thinking the same thing, time was not too bad considering tires/experience, good starting time to start improving on.

Damn!

Well you have a decent platform to start out with, so you have that to look forward to. If I were you I would look into replacing all of your seals and stuff, just because it probably hasn't been done for a while.

You have a cool setup for only $1k!
