300zx TT vs Hybrid CRX

[240sxconversion]

Ok i know when u look at this title u are gona think wow the 300 is gona kill the CRX, not this time. THe zx is fairly stock, only has NOS to spool turbos, the crx is a 88 HF with a SR20DET FWD engine in it, from what i understand the kid has it bored over, upgraded turbo to a GT35RR or something like that, and FMIC. Any way the kid with the zx thought he was all big and bad, and the crx smoked his ass by like 5 car lengths, the kid wont let anyone look at his engine bay, but i talked to his mechanic, he knows what the low down is. I was just wondering if anyone knows how difficult it is to put a SR FWD into a CRX, maybe i wont have to get rid of my rex. Nissan power with honda looks, and crx handles really well.

shut yo mouth

hes a complicated man, but no one can understand him but his woman...

[kingsol]

ummm... what the heck?!?! an sr in a crx... maybe, but i say :bs: unless you can get some pics

[240sxconversion]

well that is what the kids mechanic said, that it was a FWD SR20DET with upgrades. I didnt think it was possible, but i went on hondahookup and there was some talk of people making nissan/honda hybrid. I am just stateing what i heard from the guys mechanic, but i do know that that crx was dam fast.

Crx is still sooooo fuckin ugly. shoebox.

[hookedup240]

well if its massively modded sr 20 how hard could it be to beat a pretty much stock ztt. The crx is light as shit like under 2 g's. And as russian said, its fucking ugly, IMO the old ass civic hatches from the 80's and the crx's must be 2 of the uglyiest cars on the road.

i'd take a "slow" Z TT over the baddest CRX ever even thought of.

[old_s13]

out of all the hondas made, i think the CRX (2nd gen) is one of the nicest small FWD cars around.. I like it.

as for putting an SR20 in it, I think its stupid. Put a Honda motor in it and be done with. The SR20 is nothing special or out of the ordinary, as there are plenty of honda motors that can compete.

[Phlip]

Hey, maybe this means that the fast and the furious wasn't so dumb or unrealistic afterall...



... Wait, yes it was. Without pics, I refuse to believe the hype and even with pics, I refuse t concede to the practicality of the major amount of custom shit required when you couls have a comparitively equal performing honda engine and an established technical support network...

crx's may be ugly, but they are pretty badass little FWDs. second gens look best, too.

2nd gen crx + boosted b16 or all motor b18 = badass quick fucking little car.

[brianglawson]

why does everyone think they are ugly, i think they are tough lil cars...look like a mini dtm car or something of the sort

oh, a STRIPPED CRX beat a sexy as hell practically totally stock Z32 TT?

who the hell cares? Z's > hondas. end of story.

[nokeone]

i'd like a Sunny GTi-R engine in a small, light weight car...it would be very fun..

[Ghettokracker71]

SR20DE(T) in Honda=:ghey:

A B18C5 or B18C1 has plenty of kick-assness to it to do the job,and do it right,and keep it Honda. Why waste a perfectly good Nissan motor on a Honda body?

[twitchy]

Agree

Hondas are a parasite. I would be upset if i sold my engine and it found its way into a honda.

If i had to buy a stock crx or a stock z32, i'd get the crx. Mostly cause the z32 is the worst car nissan ever built. I'd really rather drive a KIA

haha..i dunno bout kia..but I would buy a crx too...they are great on gas mileage..lol..but also they are pretty good decent cars. Put a b16 in that and ur good to go. 300zx are a BIATCH to work on..if n e 1 u get a chance to work on the engine..u'll know wut i mean..not jus an intake..try like internal shiet and changing gaskets on that mofo. :faint:

[zenkiDori]

either way CRXs are lame a Z cars are sweet. you can make any car fast with the right amount of money.

hehe try changing the spark plugs. Z cars are pretty much all sweet except the Z32. Definition of lame ass POS. why? i dont know. Usually i have some rational explanation for my thoughts, but my passionate hate for the Z32 goes beyond any explanation i can give.

[chineseb0i]

haha..i haven't changed plugs on a z32..but changing the sparkplugs on my mom's es300 (v6 fwd) sucked since the intake manifold is right on top. To change the plugs on my mom's car involved taking off a fuel line..the intake manifold..all this other shiet cuz the intake manifold blocked 3 of the cylinders...so i'm guessing it's the same for the z32 :bs:

Kia Sephia = 1.6 B6 by Mazda, also used in the 90-93 Miata. Damn reliable and can take a massive beating. Auto blocks are lower in compression then the manuals.

In a few weeks I'll be hitting at least 150 rwhp at 7 psi of boost. Calculate that in a 2,100 lbs car = Flying Coffin.

Now turbo the Sephia... Imagine what kind of a sleeper that would make...?

I'd stab myself with a ice pick.

did anyone click on that link? It has a pic..but I couldve sworn that SR20's are disty-less..whats the deal with the plug wires? Looks more like a ca16 out of an old Pulsar...or something.
Agreed: TTZ > All hondas.
