You all make a point, i would prefer an engine, but i just thought this was too good to be true (that is were you guys came in... to bring me back to earth). But yeah, i don't wanna sound like a ricer n ish cause i can't understand why most of em do what they do. So yeah i want to have a sleeper but yeah since the big emphasis here to get an engine, what do you guys recommend then (i would like a b18 but i don't have the money) but i can afford a sohc vtec in a few months. My friend suggested getting a crv b20 and turboing that, is it practical (i can score one now)!? An for the record neons are gay, even though they can blow my betsie away, i'm hurt by the suggestion!!!

What's up buddy, yeah it's totaly up to you, but look at one major thing you're in school & you said you don't have much cash. So I would do other mods to make car stand out. Tint, clear corners etc. Also, lambo doors, body kits will play out eventually. Waste of money. Is your rex a Si or basic model. About the engine, go with the SOHC VTEC instead of the ZC. More tuning options for Vtec vs ZC. 137 hp vs 125 hp. I had a ZC power was ok. Think about it. Good Luck, Gingas

yeah guys, thanks for the talk, um yeah so i'm gonna go for the vtec when i get the chance, until then i'll keep betsie the way she is, plus if she looks totaly stock on the outside (which she seriously does), then i'll have a sleeper on my hands and i could beat all those dagnab mustangs that try to race (and torment) me!!!

not exactly.
My gf's bro-in-law is a crx guru and he is just waiting for me to get an engine. One i buy the engine, he will do the swap and all the work for free. I would like to do the work myself, but i am in school and since i got accepted to UCF, i am going to stay on campus for the first semester (which means i cannot have a vehicle on campus) so if i get the engine before i go, it will be great timing as the car will definately be done by the end of the fall term.

The link I gave you is the best place to buy it from. Make sure you get the transmission and tell them you have an HF and they'll send you a couple other parts you need to make it work. :thumbup:
