Original Engine Conversions

[XCESIV]

What do u think would be the most original engine conversion seen or imagined into a Civic or CRX.

Im talking engine all under bonnet style of motors.

[ICV 73C]

are u talkin about most common engine conversions ? if so i'm saying b16a's in civic's and crx's and next would most probaly be the b18c2's

[XCESIV]

im talking common conversions, outragious conversions, and imagined conversions

I was talking to a few people yesterday and some mates were like "A Rotor in a CRX would be awesome and different" so thought, wat else have people thought about throwing into a CRX or similar.

[arron]

"most original" = rarest engine conversion, not the most common..

[XCESIV]

im after all ideas. either common conversions or most original. I would prefer most imaginative conversions cause i dont like to copy, but its good to know wat has been done to rule out those conversions

[Bayani]

hybrid, or full electric

A big block v8 into a CRX! Seen it! Or a v8 350 in to any Honda/Acura, not hard! Had a friend put a v8 350 in to a Mitsu VR4, made 600+ hp at the wheels at high altitude. But if you want rare, try a smaller motor in to a bigger car!

20B rotor into a 350Z (new igntion DVD)

Sorry haven't got any CRXs

[Bayani]

He said in to a -CRX-

[XCESIV]

It doesnt have to be CRX, any models are good for inspiration. I would prefer cars of similar size tho.

AWD would be an awesome conversion.

[[[d a n n y]]]

most original is the engine in the car
the term original your are talking about is too broad
narrow it down..

[Zilli]

i saw a teal green excel at the summernats not last year but the year before with a 350 chev in it

he was even in the burnout comp

[Bayani]

Depends if you want originality without losing power too

[teh_mechanic]

[Bayani]

No taste either XD
