I was curious what you were gonna do with this thing next. but you gotta tell me what motor you plan on going with because you know i cant let you rock the hottest ef hatch in jefferson county lol. just kidding but yeah man if you need an extra hand with anything feel free to hit me up. Its funny how we start out with nearly identical cars, straight body and all besides the under tailight filler peice booboo.

good luck on the ride homie i did a brake line tuck on my rhd crx and i think its the ****,people on here are haters and say its not cool or its a fad do whatever you wanna do. i have people tellin me to scrap my ls turbo setup and go b16 turbo but ive seen a bunch of ls turbo's with just a fuel system and tuned hit 300-350 horsepower and a few guys are boosting 14 pounds on a stock ls think about that when ur looking for a motor
