ya know... I never realized how much those things looked like CRX's... I've only seen one guy driving one, he was a fat guy that pulled into a gas station while I was putting newspapers in the paper rack there, he went in, bought like four porno's and left in a hurry. It was funny.

I was looking at one at work and realized something, they are hella light. Imagine doing an engine swap like a b18C5 or an H22A.

I saw a pretty clean CRX. Lowered, rims, exhaust, etc. When I got up next to it, there was some old guy driving. Like in his 60's. I just gave him a and kept going.

insights way like 1800 lbs, a h22 or b18c would probaly twist on in half....not to mention all the problems youd have with that electrical system....but the pics do look pretty sweet...

I used to work at a honda dealership and we had a million of those! To be honest I never did realize how much they looked like rex's either! Has anyone ever driven one? they are actually pretty peppy for being a hybrid. The coolest paert is when you pull up at a light and take it out of gear and release the clutch it shuts off. then it starts up again when you put in the clutch.. kinda neat and it doesn't crank when it starst it just .....turns on?!

the idea crossed my mind more than a few times after seeing that drawling. I do know that major modifications would have to be made and i'm not shure about the engine compartment size?

1800 lb's.... The empty weight on my civic is 1867 lbs. A b18c or H22a doesn't tear them apart. That does look pretty badass in that picture though. Those car's are pretty damn good at taking off, it's not like mad power but electric engines have a shitload of torque so it goes when you want it to. but if you could swap something in it that'd be awesome.
