I just got an 89 crx, it's the std model and it's an auto (what luck lol) now I have a couple gaols for the car after the escort gets where i want it to be (12s) after that I want a swap, but I'm not exactly sure what will fit my criteria if at all. Please let me know if I'm being realistic or not..
170+/- whp
< 140 tq
reliable
n/a, no spray (able to take would be nice)
Rev happy (not needed but a +)
Stock Exh! (not totally stock maybe 2.25" plumbing but resonated and muffled GOOD)
Smooth idle, great gas mileage and 87 octane safe!
Transmission.. I would prefer an lsd? What would work with the recomended motor? 5spd of course conversion would be no problem, I'll have the pedals and linkage/shifter soon enough anyways.
I also want to get some bars for it (strut, sway, tie, ect), what's good/inexspensive
Brakes! I want a great 4 wheel disc setup. dun really want aftermarket, what a good donar car(s)?
I know a good deal about hondas and I like them a lot, thats why i wanted to try one out. I love the rex so far and it just needs more grunt! but it needs to be able to be my winter car still!
Basically I want a great daily driver, and an good autox car. But I also want it to be friendly on my pocket as my escort is still my fav car
