What to do??? LONG!
 
Here is my story, I was searching for a cheap 2gen civic/crx to swap a zc into when I found a b16 rex for cheap. Here is the problem, this thing is GAY. Rice extreem. Body kit, big exhaust tip, wing, ect.. The drivetrain is great, just the car is rice, I rarely drive it because its so retarded. I also hate the vibration. >:( Plus, I feel like its cheap to drive a hybrid without doing the work yourself. So, Im buying this hatch soon, hopefully this weekend, What should I do, A. Swap the b16 into the hatch (I like this one because I already have everything) B. Sell rice a roni (current crx) and do a d16z6 turbo. C. MiniMe hatch, unrice current car. Thanks for reading my story, if you have a new idea, lets hear it.

its hard to say you dont want a hybrid some ricer made but since you already have it id say buy the hatch make it you daily driver turn the rice into racer, everyone needs thier own racecar. Just a thought

i agree. but if your completely against owning/driving the ricer, put the B16 in the hatch and the hatch motor in the rice car and sell the riceboy machine to another riceboy. then take that money and put a nice T3/T04 on the B16 hatch...damn that sounds like fun...

I agree with TurboHF, Sell the rice boy racer, or part the rice accesories out on EBAY and go back to stock body parts with a little more money in your pocket than what you started with 8)

Why would you do that? the wing and body kit make it go faster! The big tip has to add at least 50 hp too lol. :D

just kidding actually I agree sell the rice accesories and make the crx your racecar.

pull all the at stuff off if you like. sell it for the cost of turbofying your current motor. then you are un riceifyed. pipes and kits arent for everyone. if the motor runs y would you sell it just cause it looks goofy? let the ppl who want to look goofy fund your smoking events. good luck
