aww man...sad to hear about that but guess that auto project never really worked out huh I'm going to try it with an automatic d-series transmission (since my car already has it i shouldn't have problems with wiring or custom mounts, etc). Going to contact a few places and see what they can do to help it handle some more horses!

Anyway, bump for a good car! This is a steal, all it needs is a manual swap and it's good to go, crx with b16!

[crxlvr]

yea it turned out to be alot harder than i imagined, which is sad, cuz i really wanted this swap to work. as it turns out ive started moving away from the whole tuner scene as im getting older, so the micro-compact crx just isnt big enough to hold my 6'2" 275lb frame anymore. i may just lease an Acura TL or Chrysler 300c

[icE_x]

ah, if you're going to go that way, don't lease Just pay a little more and then overtime you will own the car, and if you get the tuner bug again you don't have to worry about putting all the factory stuff back when the lease is up. Also, i say buying the car is more cost effective. Get a good downpayment and you're monthly payments will be less than if you leased the car. Sure if anything goes wrong with leased car they give you another or fix the prob, but if you buy it they give you a pretty sweet warranty.

And if I was that tall I don't even think i'd be driving a CRX lol. My friend is about 6 foot and he thinks the civic is too small

But whichever way you go, get an import (preferably a honda product lol). You'll definitely be happy.

anyway I can talk you into selling just the fenders off your crx?

[crxlvr]

you might be able too

[Civic Jim]

OMG i cant believe your selling it mate well i hope you get a lot of the money back that you have invested,

good luck man

[crxlvr]

ok another turn of events, im 99% changing the car to a manual and just getting it over with, with lsd of course so ill keep ya guys posted.

[icE_x]

good choice it'd be a shame to spend so much time on the car and then just sell it without even seeing what the motor is capable of.

Hey, maybe you can sell someone that built-up automatic transmission and they can tackle a b-series auto project as well. And it'd be a deal since the tranny is built already (i think). Or you can sell to someone who already has an auto with a b-series and jus wants a stronger tranny? anywho, i hear from everyone that you'll be happy with your manual swap ^_^

[crxlvr]

im sure i will too, if anyone else is planning an auto swap, dont its damn near impossible.

[Civic Jim]

YAY, glad to hear ur keeping it mate,

if need be then just buy a new crx and B16 that with a manual box lol,
