What Honda is the best 2 fix up?

I'm looking 2 get a Honda 2 race and I wanna know what would be the best one 2 do that with?
What Honda is the best 2 fix up?
mine is a 1990 honda accord and I can honetsly say it is the best even with 300,000 miles on her she still runns like a champ and has been awsome to fix, so I say a 1990 honda accord or any accord after 1989
What Honda is the best 2 fix up?
The best honda is the 1995-1997 Honda Del Sol VTECH, they are fairly rare, so they hold their value, and they look sweet. They also have a removable roof. They get really good gas mileage, and the VTECH has 160hp, which pushes the car along pretty good since it's a very light car. In the 1995-1997 models they added more options and worked out a lot of the bugs. It's a very reliable car too, just like all the other hondas. They also make a lot of aftermarket parts for it, and it's based off of the civic frame, so you can get parts from a civic, or swap the motor for a GSR motor.
Reply:if you dont know already then there is no need for you to even get into fixng cars. if you wanna learn, find a crew that was around before the fast and furious movie. they are the real ones. and F a accord. ill tell you ok, if you want lightness and speed then use a 93-95 hatchback, and if ur a small guy hell even a crx will do, but u hve to learn , do ur research on what motor to put in, if u do this correctly its going to be expensive hobby, for every upgrade you make , something will break, just so you know, but thats a good thing. that means your getting faster . now go learn about importin from the original crews, not the posers. a poser id the one who has rims a wing and a intake , basically just looksand thinks they are fast. good luck
Reply:will civic are nice but they are slow crx are small but they ugly accords are ok but i hate the way they look man I got a civic and i love it to death man the body kit i got bad *** tail light head light go with the civic and buy parts for it mine its nice
Reply:1988-1991 honda crx si, light quick two seater, years of technical write ups, already fuel injected, make almost any mount combination to put any other motor in, even the k20 and the h22. slightly more difficult engine bay than the 92-95 and 96-00 civic's but with the light weight you can keep a great power to weight ratio. plus you can pick one up for under 2k in good condition. they even make roll cages, lexan windows, carbon fiber hatch, and sunroof insert. keep it light with good power and torque. crx is the way to go.


the accord is a pain, and the del sol can be pricey, and is also a heavy car. but it all goes to preference, what is suitable to the eye as well as a good performer.


a 92-95 hatch would also be a good car to modify especially a vx or cx model. as long as you were planning an engine swap.
Reply:Oh the answer. Well the 1990-1993 Accord 5-speed is a good base if you want a sedan H22/23 motors swap right in no need for mounts you can use your stock F-serious tranny. For info on that look into cb7tuner.com





Mainly people pick 1988-1991 CRX's or 1988-2000 Civics, for road race or even lets say 1/4 racing the Del Sol dont have the chassis strength as the other cars do due to well the Targa top. If you chose to race first set goals and budget lets be honest none of use are ever going to need or driver a 8,9,10 second car on the streets or as daily. Many people stop at the low 13's high 12's mark. Ok my choice for all around daily driver and racing is the 92-95 Civic Hatchback 5-speed either VX or CX, there the lightest so is the DX and then the heavy weight Si SOHC Vtec, these motors(DX,CX,VX) need to be swap, so there is where another question comes in how much you have to spend and what are your 1/4 goals, a motor can be built and bought as little as $2000+
