Cool - what's the plans for this EX?
At $250 that's a steal. Body is very clean and it's an EX.
You could sell the front knuckles and pay for half you bought it for!

Auto tranny or manual?
Always wanted the final drive from the EX manual... would have gone GREAT with the ZC 1~4 and Si 5th + booost! muuaaaahhahahaaa

its a 5 speed manual, i dont like the final drive in it because i'm over 3500 rpm at 60.

short term plans, are to just run it single cam boost. low boost 8-11lbs.

then after i get some money saved, i want to do a gsr swap. possibly boost that.

Score the ZC 1~4 along with the boost and I'm sure would be happy with it.
Vanilla Si tranny is ok, EX is a little longer from the FD.

Si FD with ZC 1~4 is quick -a littel too quick- and with ZC FD it's too slow.
EX FD would put it right in the middle. I think it would be awesome!!!

yeah, i just dont like it for highway speeds. for play, or quarter mile, this tranny hauls the mail. 1-4 is slightly longer than a crx dx tranny, and fifth is way shorter. i like the idea of a zc, but i'd prefer to get an ls, they're cheaper and easier to find.

thanks, i got it because it didn't run. the fuel pressure regulator was bad, i had one in my garage, didn't cost anything technically to fix. i put on a new timing belt, just for good measure. i have about $400 into it total. and best of all, its not a dual point.
