Default Getting a new car.

Im tired of messing around with the crx. damb ecu wires problems. I could pay 150 and get the conversion harness for OBD1 but im not fuckin with it. So i was thinking about the h22 swap in a crx, but ive heard nothing good about that. so im thinking about a newer car. Maybe a RSX Type S, S2k, i dont know. my price rang is about 20 grand. Got any ideas.

$20k for an RSX when you can get shit like WRX's, SRt4s, etc for less

Get an SR4. Theres no replacement for displacement.

Thats why your having problems with your CRX.. it wasnt fast and you made it fast.

Get something meant to be fast

the problem is very small. custom ecu wireing instead of just getting the conversion. easy fix. ive never had problems with the crx. little dump shit, thats it.

CHeck out SRt4s man, there are a few for 15-16kish and they've got a couple of guys hitting 500whp on the stock block.. I'd say get something RWD, but I doubt you'll buy a v8, and I cant think of anything else RWD
