Yeah, I know. Japan always has their good stuff...and then let's the U.S. get some of it years later. The B16 is an old motor. It's the "Chevy small block" of Honda motors. Mine probably was an 88-91 motor + tranny, but my friend got lucky and got one with an OEM LSD in it; remember those?..I had an HF CRX because I wanted the lightest one, and my friend had the fully-loaded SI with the sunroof. He still has it. But I got outta the Honda scene back in '03 or something because cops in CA were getting real strict, plus I kinda thought the Honda scene was getting immature and...ghetto (cops made you pop your hood to make sure your motor wasn't stolen, the people involved, etc.). I got pulled over many times for fix-it tickets, and got sick of it. I sold my swapped CRX, and bought a EG hatchback soon after
about to do an H22 swap; I wanted the "big-block" Honda motor. But I held off, left the EG stock and sold it.
