kewl

 

Nice man. there is one locally that I want to get but have no room for. These are awesome cars

 

My father was telling me that with the swap he only had one problem...On the back of the motor there was a 1.5" pipe for cooling that wasnt threaded but somehow flanged, but from moving it around so much it would get loose and spew coolant all over the place....
The reason for the swap was that he hydro-locked the original motor

Lmao...when i got the b16a in my CRX he asked me why the hell wherent these motors available back then...lol

 

haha nice.

Has he actually been a Honda nut too or just that one time?

 

I would have to say yes.
I also found pictures of him in Portugal racing Hondas. Big numbers on the side and everything.

 

haha nice. What kind of Hondas did he mess around with besides the 78 (cvcc?)

 

I wish my dad was into hondas , my dad likes mine after I took him up the street in it and the look on his face was like wow this thing shouldn't be this fast. Its priceless to see the look on your dads face then one of you friends faces.

 

haha i remember the look on my friends dads face the first time i took him for a ride in my hatch...hes a big time domestic guy and thought nothing of imports....ive never seen him look scared until that day...****** priceless

 

I personally like taking my mom out with my car . She is the type that no matter what will grab the *oh ***** handle and hug the seatbelt and push her feet to the floor.

F*cking sucked learning to drive stick from her but now I strike terror when I can . haha gotta love the mom and pops

 

Other then Hondas he would throw around Opels and Citroens in Portugal.

Actually learning to drive stick I was self taught.
It was on a Friday when i bought my first car, 1985 Porsche 944. That night i didnt really touch it.
On Saturday I had work at 3pm and really wanted to drive it there. I started with the back and forth in my driveway. Got that down, then went around the block.
Picked it up pretty quick.
I guess i had the idea of the whole clutch thing down pack from riding motorcycles when i went to Portugal for vacation.
