Nice crx man :) Like I said I'm considering buying one in a few months. Looks like a fun car.

Don't know if it's just me, but the pictures weren't working on the HMT link.

No, I'm in Georgia. You can import one for me though :y I like road trips.

I want to buy one and convert it to LHD :y

More pics of that hood please.
a straight one from the front, and then a birds eye shot if you could.
(i like vented hoods but almost all of them *change* the SiR shape to something hideous. That one looks good cause it looks close to stock)

dude VIS would be making a killing selling you a front for 700. those guys are hacks, my cousin's hood split in two and the "carbon fiber" layer on top is somewhere on the freeway or under a freeway being used by a bum for some jdm shelter. maybe i'm just keen on period correct and true parts for a certain car. i hate it when i see a nice car from a far and i get close and there's gaps and waves everywhere. ---- knockoffs.

GAD DOMN NICE CRX SiR i want one now A. are there still a lot aroond canada?

There are some here in Canada but most importers are bringing in the 300ZX's,Skylines,MR2s,180SX as well as alot of Toyota trucks and landcrushers.The FD RX7 will be legal late this year early next year so I imagine that will be the ride to get.I think Im gonna hold out for another year or two till I can get a 93+ Supra as they will be legal in 2008+ :y My buddy just picked up a Fairlady Z twin turbo[300ZX] and it really has given me the bug as it is super clean low mileage car and he paid $9G CDN.

I think the fire extinguisher you're refering to is the road flare, perhaps? :l

i dont fully understand. what do you mean by legal? smog legal? or legal to register? so know one drives a 3rd gen rx7 there? or a mkiv supra?

These cars are imported from jdm land and are all rhd. You can legally import them when there 15 or 16 years old as long as they pass all CDN standards. Most of the time they are alot cheaper than their usdm counterpart.
