Do you have an aircraft hangar for a garage or something, it looks somewhat larger than your average garage

Your poor del sol. . It's so fucked though, you're not seriously considering repairing it?

Good lad for letting you pitch up 3 cars (long term? ) in the garage/hanger .

RWD + v-tec the white one with a mix of trak + euro style will be the ultamate sax ever built sell the others for parts or scrap to pay for the conversion
would be a real shame to get rid of the white vtr when you spent loads of time on fixin it

thanks chris
well its 1590cc so pretty much a 1.6 16v
parkers puts it at 123bhp which is plenty for me, alot of people off the honda forums have said theres no point and to put a k20 in but thats unneccesery for me
i just want to keep a bit of the rex going tbh

Yeah all the Honda fanboys seem to be the same, they all think you want all out power, I mean 123hp's not exactly a small amount like. All I can say is good luck if you do go ahead, and if you do ever get bored, I can imagine you having a queue of people to take it off your hands

Can I intervien a little
not to put a downer on things but think about this a second

vtec saxo isn't easy
custom engine mounts (if the Rex is that destroyed then I doubt you can cut them
out of it to use)
custom driveshafts
custom gear linkages
custom fuel lines
custom breathers to tank and brake servo
the exhaust will need to be custom too
then the wiring
aswell as bits like coolant hoses ect all need thinking about

all 5 vtec French cars I've seen have been track use so have no heaters ect in them so that reduces half the work in making them work

and then try get insureance on a car like that with that crash on record and possibly points

sorry but there's my input
it would be a cool car
but I think your dreaming unless you don't plan to do it for a few years

would defo be a long term project, and wouldnt do it for a while, but i do wanna do it one day.
dont care if im dreaming just cus im a girl and cant do everything to my car doesnt mean i have no idea
