Hey I was wondering if I would be able to fit a H22A-R motor into a Honda CRX???? I was reading a website and it said it would fit... But Ive seen the engine bay and the damn thing is hella small... Ive been thinking about slapping one of those motors in it, and adds some performance mods, to have a drag car... What y'all think?

You have to cut into the firewall to get it to fit...

Actually you dont have to "cut" the firewall to make it fit - you have to cut just about everything else and bang on the firewall...
H22 is the hardest swap to do in a civic, and if you get into an accident? Forget it even a small 20mph crash that might just damage your bumper or fender - will tear your car apart.

For a CRX I think the best bet would be a B18C??? or B18C5? because I talked with somebody who did the H22A conversion and it was only a drag car basically because it understeered like a bitch... But yea peace out...
