okay I'm planing on doing a swap to the REX "crx" I found a shop that only deals with Japanese motors/Transmission, and for 659.99 I'll get a ZC motor, and Transmission, and for $400. he'll install everything. Here's the thing I'm not into racing my car, but do like to watch, and learn, but I wonna make sure that everytime I turn the ignition I get the most out of the engine/transmission, without burning it ou before it's time so what path should I take

 

sounds like a good deal
im not sure what you mean thou by "path" you mean doing it yourself or having a pro do it? if you are comfortable doing it, go for it!

 

I plan on doing everything by myself, the only reason that I'm not doing the motor/transmission swap is cause I've never done something this major on a car, but I promise you on my other 90 Civic HB I will. When I say path I mean the best way to use my engine to the fullest without having to use NOS, Turbo etc... just basic bolt -ons, but the best way to use'em

 

it's not that hard to do a swap...
Just requires a little more than basic car knowledge, some good tools, and a free weekend.

My swap was the 1st swap I've ever done, 1st time I ever did anything that hardcore to any car, and I did it almost completely by myself in just under 3 days

read a manual and it will be no problem. doin a engine swap in a honda is about the equivelent to putting a 30 piece jigsaw puzzle together.

Um, I havent done a swap myself but im sure its harder then a jigsaw puzzle I wish...

 

it really isnt that bad, its basically a R&R swap, nothing special

no nitrous, no turbo?!! dont worry some time after you spend a bunch of cash on the "best" intake and full exhaust system and only gain 7.3 hp you will see the light.

at least thats what happened to me
