I know......it's not a 3s, but I guess the Celica will just have to wait for a heart transplant, the CRX comes first this year. For those who don't know, it's a b16a, 170hp 1.6L swap. I got it for $1500 and that included integra axles, ecu, wiring harness and sub-harness, hasport motor mounts, and best of all, I got him to throw in his full 3" cat-back exhaust all well. Not a bad deal in my opinion. =] I know the Celica's jealous...you can see it scowling in the background. tongue.gif I'm so pumped!!

type r!


not quite.....I wish though. =] There was a complete type-R b16 in seattle a little while ago for $2600. I think I'd go for a 3s before I'd spend that much.


red valve cover = type r

LOL. You guys are all crazy.... biggrin.gif Okay, first off, maybe it did belong in off topic, but I'm ready and willing to open it to the discussion of the b16a vs. 4AGE. Then it's on topic right? tongue.gif (Although GT4WRC did a pretty good job of covering that already.)

As far as the whole honda thing goes, I'm really pretty much in agreement with most of you. There's way too many, coffee can exhaust, custom tail light, crap sounding, crap looking honda's(especially civics) driving around now-a-days. But at the same time, anyone who doesn't aknowledge the quality of Honda's obviously doesn't know what they're talking about.

So, that being said, I love the CRX's. They're my second favorite car ever made. wink.gif But like everyone is saying, they're all over the place, and I hate driving a boring, not even that fast, car. Around here there's almost no engine swaps, so I'll be a rareity, and what's more, I'll have an absolute blast putting the engine in. I look at it as good practice for when I finally get a 3SGTE. So, I appreciate those of you who appreciate the deal I got, and what I'm doing, and are telling me to have fun. As for the rest of you, go ahead, make fun of me, I don't care, cause I'm pumped about doing this swap, and that's all that matters! tongue.gif lol.

It was just painted red. I wish it was a type-R
