New project on it's way....

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Thu Jul 06, 2006 7:39 pm

Well I got a car to replace the teg... it's not as clean (right now) or as fast (right now) but it's MINE... and easy / cheap to fix up..

I got friends who do body work.. and friends who do paint.. so I'll keep you posted on what this beater will turn into..

It's a 1991 CRX SI.... $900 delivered 300 miles to me...

Body work probably starts this weekend or the next.. I'm in between moving outta base housing and moving into a new place... so it might be slow for the first month...

I already ordered the amber turn signals that are missing up front for it..

Not a bad deal. Those are pretty cheap for fixing up and making pretty quick. Good buy, even if it is a honda... n/m your last car was a honda too

A K20 would be nice... but have you priced those out?... they're $5,000 + just for the motor alone...

A B16 or a B18 is far cheaper.. and with boost can be just as fast.

Id go with the B series, unless u have the bank for a K. That would be sick! whats wrong with the teg? did u sell it!? I dont know why people get rid of nice cars.

not a bad project. for the price you cant beat it.

people get rid of nice cars because they want to move on to something different.

Something different.... something cheaper to mod.. something cheaper to repair... something that is PAID OFF.

Teg is still in the garage... but it IS up for sale.

Screw B Series.

You want an engine and drivetrain that will destroy all? It beat the crap outta my car in a much heavier o2 civic.

built K20 from an RSX. 6 speed with a 9k rev limiter. throw a header and an intake on it and run 12's easy....as long as you can drive and have slicks

If you want to talk about the K20 pm me. I can talk to you more about it. He has one for sale, built bottom, 3 angle valve job, cams, etc etc.

B series can make some serious power for the buck.....

You can run 12s EASILY with a b series and a bolt on turbo kit on low boost...

My buddy has a ZC motor (stock motor) with a turbo kit and some tuning running high 11s..

with the money spend on a b-series and a turbo kit, it would be the same price as a k-swap and be around the same time in the 1/4th.

K series is expensive dude

B series might actually be cheaper, but they K will take you farther. Thats where im gonna end the conversation because i can't get into detail with honda's. Not so knowledeable in that area. All i know is that there is some hopped up B's around here that can't touch me......and my friends K20 type R fuggin schooled me like i was nothing

lownslow, so how much are you asking for the teg and where are you pcsing too

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 2:42 am

10,500 for the teg.... not PCSing for another year.. if you're military and you have yet to ship a car to your base... they will ship one vehicle for you as long as you have a year left at your base... if not it'd be around 1500 or so to ship it..

crx are a lot of fun and cheap to mod, but you know that already.... wish you luck with the teg.

scneonchic · Post by **scneonchic** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 10:00 pm

Lots of people are getting CRX's lately. A good friend of mine has one w/ a jdm front end conversion, and is building up a b16 for it. I love hondas, but I could never drive a car that small, no matter how fast it was.

I want an early 90's civic hatch... my bro-in-laws was freaking bad. It had a b16 vtec in it and a few bolt ons and was running low 13's. I think he had (this is from memory) 4-2-1 header, 2.5" (?) catback, cams, chip, cai, and I am sure some other stuff... he and I lined up and he lit it up through 2nd. I laughed the whole way as I stared at his taillights. Damn that thing was fast.

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Sun Jul 09, 2006 7:34 pm

crx's and early 90s hatches are good platforms. i love a good clean early 90s hatch.... mmmmm.....

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Sun Jul 09, 2006 7:55 pm

Well it was delivered to me yesterday...

Definitely got a lot of work to do.. lol

No way! well to some I guess.. Ive already had my 04 neon and my 05 srt-4.. time to build a car from basically ground up.. I have my integra.. but it was bought not built.. this ones gonna be done by me

(Dan should be proud)

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Mon Jul 10, 2006 1:31 am

no no no. im not sasying anythign bad, i love to see a car built not bought. thats my philosophy. but IMO, i would take his clean and simple 2gn to start with instead of a CRX. i know you will do this build right! ive seen ur other cars

Paralyzer · Post by **Paralyzer** » Mon Jul 10, 2006 10:13 am

i was about to buy one of these a while back. But changed my mind. Plus where I live we are limited on how many parking spaces we can have.
