ok, hes a short breakdown. i had a CRX i bought, guy bondoed the **** outta it and sold it to me for a pretty penny. paint started to crack so i traded it for a civic with a kit and planned on puttin a b16 in it. bought a jdm b16 with LSD and swapped that in and wrecked the car 3000 km later

now i have a chance to trade the complete 2nd gen b16 swap with tranny for a CRX, but the guy wants cash. here is a link to the CRX hes interested in trading for my motor.

i just dont know how much cash he would be looking for.

keep in mind im in canada, basically looking for your opinion, do think its worth the trade or should i just keep looking for a cheap assed 5th gen and slap my motor back in there?

 

i did not understand anything u said

 

here u go
DUMIFIED:
1) had CRX, it was rotten, guy ripped me off
2) traded CRX for 93 civic HB, put B16 swap in
3) totaled civic, motor and tranny still good
4) guy offered my a CRX to trade for my B16 and LSD tranny + cash
5) should i do it or keep looking for a 5th gen civic to swap my b16 back into?

that should be dumbed down enought for ya

 

continue looking for a cheap *** 5th gen. because with the CRX you'll need shiftlinakge and mounts. along with ob0-obd1 conversion harness. i'm assuming obd1 ecu/distributor/4wire o2 since you have a b16 w/lsd and you had it in a 92-95 hatch. so keep looking for a 92+honda.

 

nevermind your thinking of trading swap + cash for the crx. how much cash??

anyways i still would look for a 92+ civic screw that.

 

get another CRX.

im still pretty drawn between the 2 choices... i cant really approd to buy another 5th gen, cause im on a slim budget...

 

look for a cheap crx or hatch to put your motor in

 

crx or eg hatch

i wish, but here in Nova Scotia, Canada its hard o find 1 tahts not a driving pile of rust or an automatic... i dont wanna deal with an auto to manual swap...

 

too bad you're not in new york
i have one , eg that i would sell for cheap

 

yeah i wish, i need 1 badly... i wonder how much it would be to ship it here

 

holy crap ditchin that idea i guess, turns out the guy wants $3000 + my swap for the CRX

i say go for it! but keep the LSD tranny and find a different tranny to trade. LSD cable tranny's are hard to come by!

EDIT: scratch that.

JSUT SAW YOU LIVE IN CANADA. KEEP YOUR MOTOR AND TRANNY! AND GO TO http://jdmconnection.ca. save your $$$ and get a crx imported from Japan. IT WILL BE WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

yeah id say tehy are hard to come by, gut i have a hydro LSD tranny, its a 2nd gen b16.... but yeah its not worth it to me cause the guy wants way too much for the CRX, 3500 + my full b16 swap with tranyn and ecu and **** isnt worth it to me..

as for importing a JDM CRX, hmmm

 

hey crxified, i've seen you posting on lowmo and i've seen this crx advertised on lowmo.

$5500 for his rex is too much money, he's trying to make up money probably for the engine rebuild he paid someone to do, which rebuilding a the d was a waste.

you can find a better deal then that in nb/ns.

and $3000 plus your engine swap isn't worth it either.

 

Look for a clean shell for like $500-$800.

 

Id listen to Formula or just trade up with the cash, $5500 isnt any cheaper then good condition EG

yeah i thought it was a waste too rebuilding a d-series but what can ya do. its a nice CRX and i want another but i dont think 5500 is worth it for that rex, and the only reason he wanted $3000 on top of my swap is cause it wasnt cable tranny and it didnt have b series mounts. i told him i could trade my hydro b16 tranny for a cable and buy the mounts for him, but i would only give him $1000 on top of tha swap. he never wrote back so i guess hes not interested lol

oh well the search continues for another hatch i guess
