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!!

Wrong forum definately, this belongs in OT. wink.gif


Good luck with the B16 swap though, thats going to be a seriously fun car.

As far as GT-Four being eaten by a CRX, its very possible. Its all about which car has the larger budget, whos the better driver, and who pushes more boost and is tuned better. Something fun to check out is Homemadeturbo.com, they have some hilarious videos of them thrashing on some turbo d16's that are stripped down to nothing, and they're running quarter mile times well within what a BPU'd GT-Four would be running. However if you build either car they can be extremely fast, it just depends on the three "B"s mentioned before- budget, better driver, boost/tune.

Depressing food for thought-
$ for $, if you were to total the cost of each car and it's buildup to get it to the same level of performance, the CRX would undeniably come out on top.
