Default Thinking ahead to next project

Ok yeah so I've been thinking a couple years into the future as to what my next project will be and I've come to the conclusion that I'd like to put a B18C GSR into a Del Sol or CRX. As for the engine itself, TODA everything including thier ITBs, pistons w/ Carrillo H Rods, header, clutch/flywheel, top end w/ S2 valves, cam pulleys, HG, cams. UR pulley set, JIC exhaust, Random Tech cat. Motec M4 Honda kit. Suspension wise, TEIN SS coilovers, ST sways, Prothane or ES bushings, Greddy UF strut bar, DC LR tie bar, Tanabe Sustec underbrace, LCAs (company to be determined) Megan UR strut bar.
I believe I can accomplish all this including the car for ~19500.


Lemme know what you think.

I think it would be a great project. 19 grand is a lot of money, which could be put toward an s2000

I think that with a $19,500 budget I would not go with a GSR. A bolt on and tuned K20A/K24A2 swap would not cost as much and yeild better results.

If your looking to spend 20k, look into buying a S2k with a blown motor. Since you aren't planning to do the project for a few more years S2ks will be even cheaper.
