i somehow think my better half would have something to say about that and it wouldnt be very nice...

i can also understand the whole "buy a vr its cheaper" arguement... but in my eyes i dont like letting cars go... i had 3 honda civics and made i good one out of them all!!!

So in this case i would much rather send a poorly 8v engine to the scrapheap in the sky and give a homeless vr a birthday!!!

its not going to be easy but i will do it.... if i can do a k20 (typeR) conversion into a 1.6 civic then i'll give this a bash.... plus... what can be so hard??? its literally plug n play right????
