Re:Need a Turboed Honda Car
Yah I got some pics and like I said yahoo said it like 12 hours or 840 miles. I have three other people inquiring about since I've posted it on three other sites. I'm asking 4000 for everything rims and turbo, or I could go cheaper if you didn't want something included. I'm at work so I'll hook you up with some pics when I get home tonight.

Re:Need a Turboed Honda Car
when i was driving i'd drop my toolbox and work anywhere. parking lots, someones driveway the side of the road. where ever. ya do what ya gotta do. I wouldn't buy anybodys ride that was done up already... ya never know what kind of abuse the guy before you put it through, or the guy he let borrow it, or the guy that that guy let drive it... you get the idea. you never know what kind of idiots had his hands under the hood, or on the wheel.

Re:Need a Turboed Honda Car
I don't mean to knock on you veilside but if you don't know much on under the hood I think you should stay away from turbos until you can work on your own car. Could some people give veilside a rough idea of how much a "turbo'd" honda will cost and if your looking to only spend 1500-2000 on a decent car you may find one but more likely not turbo'd. I'm trying to open your eyes on the bigger picture. You want a turbo'd honda but don't feel like buying tools, thats like say your hungry but only don't wanna buy silverware to eat with! I'd say your better off buying a car that came turbo'd from the factory and you might find something a little cheaper and less of a hassle. Please don't take it that I'm bashing on you but just trying to have you see the whole picture.

Re:Need a Turboed Honda Car
A 1.5 sohc vtec? You want a mini me or a d15b turbo'd engine? I'd think you'd want a recently turbo'd car then one thats been turbo'd for a while since the one that's been turbo'd for while probaly had more abuse then the newer one. Just my $0.02. Anyway good luck on your search.

Re:Need a Turboed Honda Car
ok listen. if you do find and buy some1's turbo crx what are you going to do when something needs to be fixed, cuz it WILL happen? buy a 4g crx si (90-91 is best) or a 5g civic. bone stock, maybe i/h/e (intake header and exhaust sys) and wait til u have a place to work on it. Otherwise you are going to regret buying it.
If you don;t believe me, ask any1 whos had a turbo honda for more then 3 months w/o any problems.. not many if any at all.
