i wont spend all my time talking about my own car, or rant about hondas, but i will say one thing.
if your set on hondas and if you want a fast car for cheap, pick up a CRX. they are super light weight and dont need much power. you should pick up a B18c or even a B16 honda motor. easy swap, you can find those motors cheap, and there is a lot of aftermarket support.
my buddy had a stock bodied CRX, small stock steel wheels, grippy tires, B16 with basic bolt ons and spanked a lot of people with it. i was surprised at how quick it was. it doesnt take much to propel a car that only weighs 1800 lbs. 200hp honda motors can make a CRX a rocketship.
granted its still FWD, but hes a beginner. not great on a track, but Freeway pulls will be a blast.
