here is the reasoni love this car, very fast, alot better gas mileage than the accord. comments welcome
here is the reason
Like the JDM dash
is that a b-18 or b-16? Sorry, I'm kinda a newbie when it comes to b-series. Nice, just needs a little tlc, a fresh coat of paint, and some nice Rota's to seal the deal. Good luck with it man!

the crx did not come stock with the b-16s... not even the crx si.. the JDMs did though
Well that's a b16 in there. It sure isn't a A20
yeah, its called a swap.
Yeah I know, I wasn't saying it was stock though. I was just saying it was a b16 or a b18. I know some CRX si's had dual carbs.
its the b16 from jdm 90-91 civic/crx SIR's
and mike, i'd rather ride in my crx than your accord. cause, i dont like all show no go especially with heavy ass chrom rims. sorry, just aint my style. i'd rather be racing than in a car show.

HAHA, my ass you would Aaron. That is a POS Period!!! I hate to be bashful, but man that car is just lame. I wouldnt pay $100 for that CRX. I guess your right, it's preference. There is also a word called class, and I got it. Rollin in that you don't have any. Cars like that I and many others laugh at. Jeez.......

I'm kinda in between on this one. I do really appreciate a nice clean looking car with a great paint job and tastefull appearance mods. However, IMO, I not only want a car to look good, but be able to get itself out of it's own way and then some. Honestly, I've always liked the little CRX-Nugget, and at it's weight with that engine, it's gotta be quick. If I had to pick one over the other, I'd pick quick-factor over bling-factor. However, the bling factor is an easy way to give the appearance of "I got $$" while anyone without air between thier head knows that doing things like engine swaps is as pricey if not more then all that sparkle.Originally posted by Pimp88Accord

I like to get the best of both worlds, sure you have to sacrafice a little here or there to get the desired results, but it's a happy marriage of the two. A nice rota 15" and a good coat of paint will do a ton for that little car. The bigger wheels and nice paint will attract many alone, only to be further astonished by the under-hood. The paint and Rota's will not hinder the go-factor at all, maybe even help a little.
Maybe what I said doesn't make any sense, but most of all, know that to me it's not class thing or a sleeper thing, no mean intentions in any of my words, nothing meant in any way to be directed to any members, but just IMO.

..but no, I don't think it's a POS at all. That intake manifold alone is worth $100 or more. It's easier to look at a car like that and invision yourself driving it after a nice fresh coat of paint and a set of 15's rather then looking at a pretty car and invisioning yourself buying a motor and collecting all the parts for a swap and then driving that really cool looking car after that swap.
Again, that's with the Show&Go mentality in mind.

dude that could be really nice with a kit and some nice rims and fresh paint... and lucky the motor is done already so just do the exterior...

It just needs paint. Aside from that, it looks fine. Since you got it for a pretty good price with the swap already done, you can now focus on the looks part of it and still come out with a good deal.

Perfect project to start from. You got a head start
Congrats!
whoever said he wouldnt pay 100 bucks for that car is... well... i dunno... they must not know a damn thing about engines... that crx is sweet. Paint it. Give it tasteful rims... then... hmm.. theres your "show" and your speed. Way better than a riced out accord.
$100 mike??? hahaha, see, i'd take my crx over your accord anyday. the reason why? cause i'd rather see the astonished look on peoples faces in my review mirror after i waste their ass.
but enough with this dissing. i'm not saying your car doesnt look sweet, cause it does in a show factor kind of way. but you just need to give more credit where credit is due.
and once again, i'm a racer not a shower.
oh, and as for plans for the rex, yes i was gonna finish fixing the body damage put some paint on it. and i was actually gonna get some 15" rota's, hehe. after that and lowering, everything is going into the engine.
Where's Nate when you need him.....*sigh*

That'll be sweet with the Rota's on it. And paint. I don't know about the rest of you guys, but it looks really tall in those pics. IMHO, it should be tastefully lowered. Nothing insane, but practical and good-looking. Can't wait to see the Rex as it develops!! Good find man!!
To each his own Aaron. I can respect your into speed. No hard feelings man.
