I don't know if that was directed towards me, but if it was.....no thanks That CRX will be with me til' my dying day, I would rather sell the NSX than the CRX.

As far as the K20a, I did a lot of research last night on k20a.org and I'll tell ya, that engine swap seems insane. However, for some reason it just doesn't look "good" in the rex, just my own .02 I know the engine is superior and the weight factor would be addressed, but for some reason you seem to cross over the imaginary line of "it's no longer a CRX". I may be crazy but the whole engine sits the wrong way, you lose the shift linkage, headers on the back, etc.. IMO the rex engine should always sit left to right, header in the front and a solid shift linkage. What we have been doing, IMO is improving on the general design of the car by adding larger engines, K20a is simply changing the whole car. Hell, maybe one day I'll buy a beater CRX and do a K20, but not for my baby.

I'm still interested in the H22 (the engine looks soooo good in there) but the time frame for the mount kit sucks.

Now I'm tossing around the idea of coughing up an additional 1K and getting a B18C5 instead of the B18C1. At first I didn't think the hp difference justified the price, as well as the higher compression (not good for JRSC). However, I have been reading that the porting on the 18C5 is better and the internals are a little bit tougher. With that in mind I may go that route. Plus I get to wear the red valve cover without being a poser

BTW....http://www.passwordjdm.com is no good, do I have the right link??
