honda can continue to get fucked after 2001

fucking slant niggers

lol I actually agree with you on the timeline. However I actually like the car. The FIT/Oddesy "cartoony" front end is ugly as sin, same for the 7th gen Civics. The del sol is fun to drive, but feels rickety as hell. Mine beater has 170k on it, stock b16a3.

What I'd want to do is buy a theft-recovered CR-Z where the batteries/engine were removed, register it in a non-emissions county, and swap in a b-series. I'm guessing it will be like the FIT's mac. strut/torsion bar suspension, but that can be fixed too.

They're marketing the CR-Z as a "sport hybrid"...

I can't wait until people start swapping the electric drive portions from the hybrid Accords, upgrading the battery packs, tweaking the software...

Electric motors will be the new turbo.

Then add a turbo...

Looks pretty sexy to me. As bad as it sounds it reminds me of a ricer car with a stock motor that ppl expect alot our of. Couple yrs and you've got a modern sleeper.

Still didnt see anything about making the cars with B series motors,manual windows, manual seats, and no AC., Thats what honda needs to get back to. Is the basics. Too bad you cant order any civic with what motor you want, what options you want and certain parts of the car missing that you dont want to pay for.....

I guess I'll go against the grain here. I dig it. I would like to see a non-hybrid version offered as an Si though.

Pretty excited, but I dunno that I could bring myself to buy one brand new.

I'm in.

What part of lighter weight and more fuel efficient did you misunderstand? BTW, I *like* AC, and it's never been a problem for degenerates like you to tear a perfectly good AC system out when not preoccupied painting your dash blue.

So what you are saying is that most likely the only thing that wasn't a complete pile of shit was removed, so now the stink is infesting JD's Pride and joy?

You better fucking meen that dsm's on it roof. You don't just sell Fowee's SI. you drive it for years with the bad part throttle miss and talk about fixing it but you never do because your to busy getting the heat to work in your house for the cold winter we had two years ago.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #50 on:** November 02, 2009, 12:50:27 AM »

The part throttle miss was due to serious corrosion between cap and plug wire. It still breaks up when cold and idles like it has a cam, but pulls smooth at all loads and speeds.

BTW, Robb means flipped as in this is how the car was parked two days ago:

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #51 on:** November 02, 2009, 12:51:32 AM »

BTW it has a new windshield. Still too lazy to install the new headlight Foowee sent me, though.

i love my 1g crx. ive owned both and like them equaly, my 1g has a dohc zc also. the only thing i dont like is lack of engine bay space. but i love everything else, and i will make my holset fit in that tiny ass engine bay this winter

plus the 1g's suspention is set up more for drag, and thats all i want to do with it. also never had a honda or any car for that matter with so much dam leg room...
