SouthDakota Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Thats right Gents! The Rex is getting a beefed up b18a and a ls 5 speed tranny. Engine is bored .50 mm with a ton of extras inside. Making around 200hp. I'll be picking it up tomorrow and will get build pics up asap! Along with the engine swap I will be doing the suspension as well, upper control arm and camber kit for front, lower control arm and camber kit in the rear with 0-4in adjustable springs. I'm gonna bring the stance down just a tad just built my friend the same excited motor, you are gunna be really happy with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricM9104 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Do not turbo it unless you can on a hell of a good tune. A open deck motor like that bored over .50 will blow up easily with a shitty tune. Just saying.

thorshammer Posted January 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 lol I've always had loud systems. I was more than happy with my GP even fully loaded with 800+ lbs of equipment. I basically had to give that car to my wife so she had something to drive kids to school, shopping etc... So now I want to be just as happy with my crx as I was with my GP. Improve handling, More HP, Nice paint ( probably a wrap job in the future), re do interior, roll down the road gleeming at 110mph, shaking windows as I pass ya! Once that is accomplished I will be a very happy man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
