what if I could get a honda CRV that has been completly torn apart and put back with a v-8 engine swap. The highlight is its only $1000 yup new engine intake and big *** muffler *its really fast* a few other things have been done to it. I think im going 2 go with this instead of dumping soo much money into a car that will never be as fast as i want it with out sleeping with the king of France.

well im going on sunday to take pics and i will post them then. Well im giving the dude 1,000 for the Eclipse strait up and i will pay him like 200 per week for 5 weeks because the honda crx he is taking a few things off and he said he is going 2 put new tires on it for me. another reason he is selling me these two cars so cheap is that 1) he got a acrua *not sure on spelling* RSX and has droped alot of **** in it and has no need for the honda CRX. 2) The eclipse is his girlfriends car and she wants something that is faster *the eclipse is an auto with just intake and catback* so he is buying her a honda civic year 2005 i think thats what he said, so he needs the extra money to hook it up.

so jeff...a v8 is impossible in a FWD vehicle?? maybe you haven't seen the new impala. also, who said that it has to maintain FWD? maybe it was converted.?
but this is my favorite part
sounds hideous
coming from the kid who ran for COTM with a primered elantra with steelies. oooohhk...then posts up pics of his car with non-matching wheels.

wrong...the cr-v has an option for 4wd/awd...wether it has it or not, it still has the pumpkin housing cut out of the rear suspension...stick with nissan...

wait yeah is it crv or crx?? i just thought the v8 would be impossibly b/c i didnt know there was a pumpkin in the crv and i thought it would cost too much to fab a v8 into that thing. and i know about the new impala but look at the how much bigger their engine bay is compared to the crv. btw v8 is definatly impossibly with a crx

Nothing is impossible. I know someone making a rwd v8 probe. Sure it takes alot of fabrication, but nothing is impossible.

an ls1 into a 240 is cake b/c the 240 is already a rwd platform. but trying to create clearance in a little crx's rear end to fit a diff and let alone a v8 into the engine bay is ridiculous
