Sorry you are encountering people with bad manners. You ask for positive advice and a guy tells you to get rid of your car. Nice.

Your motor is a fine upgrade for the CRX, but if you were to drop in a b16 or GSR, you have a real screamer. Maybe put that on your longterm goals list.

I am not into body kits, so if it were me I would convert over to the cleaner look of stock, and of course you can go JDM by adding parts from Japanese market cars.

The CRX is an ideal performance platform because of its light weight. I am building two right now - one with an LS/VTEC and the other with a high-compression GSR. They will be all street tires can handle.

also turbo is a ok option for the crx i had a zc turbo crx way back in the day and it def. held its own. they are a pretty strong motor. check out home made turbo.com a lot of guys have done zc motors there but just use it as a reference do not take short cuts like some of them do it the right way.
