I like the 1st one on the 2nd link, if....you can make use of that hood scoop. A turbo kit w/ a intercooler would be a good mix for that one....but ya gotta make it's peformance match your looks or you'll be a ricer all the way.

<< P.S. Your Probe will ALWAYS be slow. >>


Not always ;)

And Blundar, I'm curious. I've always thought that the CRXs had a weight somewhere aroudn 2200-2300lbs, so you're telling me you dropped 400-500 pounds just from the interior? I hope not. Plus, is it street legal? Anyways, I'm sure the thing is still slow, and probably pulls a 15 flat in the 1/4 after all of that money lol

Oh my god my eyes there burning! OMG! AIIIIIIIIIEEIE!IEI NOOOOOOOOO!!!! Probes are ugly!

And the 85' CRX curb weight on the heaviest model in 85' was 1,801 lbs. Very easy car to make fast..

Link to car weight if you don't believe me

Yea, CRX's are very easy to make quick due to their weight.. I wouldn't mind selling my current Civic ('98 Hatch) for a CRX, but my parents would kill me since I basically got the car for free..

Kinda the reason I want to drop a REAL engine in my Pontiac Lemans 2100lbs curb weight. Figure in some weight reduction, and a engine swap to a V6 (if I can get one that will fit) with a turbo kit I should be able to get some nice 0-60 times for <$2k or even $4k at most (I'm not sure how much the engine swap/turbo will cost, so I may be off, but figure in that the car cost me $600 stock).

OK The Question Was Wich Body Kit Looks Better Not Should I Get One, Should I Get a New Car Or Do Ricers Suck.... If I Wanted a Performance Car that everyone Else Could Have I Would Buy a Porshe as was mentioned.... But I Want a Car that Will Be 1 of a Kind, Thats Why I am Building One, Not a Trendy azz Yuppie Sports Car... If You Wanna Flame than Go to a Diffrent Flippin Thread....

Of the choices, I would say the NEO CW. If you really want your car to look cool, take of all of the badging except the blue oval on the hood. If the kit is installed well and it doesn't say probe on it, people will wonder what you are driving.
