Well I have been looking for a honda for the last couple of months and after a couple of run ins, I found something that has a lot of potentinal and looks like a lot of fun. I am picking it up Thursday, here it is:

_1988 CRX Si_

\*\*\*\*\* Side notes, I have new rims for it, and here are a list of things I am getting for it:

1.) Custom Exhaust from Hybrid  
2.) Better Cams  
3.) Intake Manifold  
4.) Larger Throttle Body  
5.)CD Player, Rockford Fosgate surround sound  
6.) Painted Gunmetal over the winter  
7.) Bigger Injectors  
8.) Different front end

I am keeping it NA I have decided and keeping the 200 shot dry kit in it. This is my first honda so try and keep the remarks on the positive side and yes I know it looks like a John Deere tractor but it wont for long:rx3:

200 dry shot + CTR pistons, probably not the best idea

I like the color, but the wheels have to go

Nice ride :tup:

the ctr pistons in a b16 block with gsr heads compression is not as high as it would be if it was in just a straight gsr. someone needs to talk him out of this “NA” bs. through some forged pistons and rods and but a turbo on that thing. hell i bet matt will sell him his turbo kit for fairly cheap
