Very nice. I wish I had it... I'm probably going today to go look at a CRX-Si, so hopefully it can be a summer project car.

- is that the night you messed up your clutch/tranny?

Hey if you need help with business and running an import shop let me know, i'll give you my contacts and they will give you the plug. If you need swaps cheap, papered, and in good running order let me know.
