Re: im getting a CRX need help

there just the different familys of engines honda makes. the numbers in it are how many liters it is.

oh and Vtech is a phone company, VTEC is what you mean.

Re: im getting a CRX need help

best bang for buck is the DOHC ZC. i myself am doing a b16 but if you got extra cash the b18c1 is an awesome swap.

h22 in 4th gen? child please you know all the down sides of it?

what kinda CRX as the SI motor d16a6 is nice for build ups Dxs dont even have a true mpfi system and should be wired for one and swapped.
I know you said you want a DOHC vtec *can't blame you for wanting the best* but the CRXs came only with single slammers in the US

there are large vtecs 2.2 being the largest youd ever think of putting in a rex.

If you want EVIL 2.0L vtec i'd say get a GSR Jun stroker kit but that will be a ton of cash.

Spoon is the cream of the crop honda parts i run there rims 8lbs per cost me 2K about. There motors are awesome but a race only part and they are very costly.

never mind i found one, but what is the difference betwen a JDM and a USDM? is it performance?
