Default What should i do to this crx i bought 2/04/06

what should i do to my 90 crx si with a zc swap? I bought the t3/t3 turbo off of the owner also came with manifold and downpipe. Headliner is missing in the car. the support beam is banged up on the inside. front bumper has a crack. dizzy don't really seem to fit. needs a new si wiring harness. the car got keyed on both sides bcuz lost to this crx. The kid got pissed and keyed the **** out of the car. the climate control is completey broken no headunit. si seats still intact. driver side door the weld cracked big time. passenger side really fucked up. should i reapair everything??? those JDM ef8 front end conversions are too expensive. other wise i would do the conversion. heres the link on what it looked like on sunday morning 7:00 am. was cold morning like 20sum degrees

RICE IT OUT!!


Sounds like a bipolar 16yr old had it last. Fix it up if you have the time or got it for a steal, otherwise fix it up and learn the trade of b00st.

those are the lights I have on my crx the only reason I have them is becuase my stock ones had cracks in them and leaked. I don't think they are half bad. Most people say blah blah thats rice blah blah but I could really give a rats ***. Then they want to race and they are looking at my taillights the whole time . Stick with the ZC but please get rid of the blue paint.

Do you have a beater car to drive? My opinion would be to get another car and work on the crx. Mine is my daily driver and it blows to have to work on it and then turn around and put it back together to drive to the store.

Holy expletive that's an ugly CRX. Keep it 100% USDM stock looking. People won't goof on you then. My first ride was a 90 Civic Hatch Cx, with SOHC ZC swap done by me. Have fun with the Rex, but DON'T ******* RICE IT OUT!!!
