Welcome bud

i used to have a Honda CRX it was the 1.6I-16 G reg in championship white, they are great cars, very rapid. I sadly crashed mine, OAP pulled out on me at a T junction, stoved the whole front end in.

I'd probably still have it if it were'nt for that.

welcome to the site mate, sounds like your a right petrol head

if you are looking for an mr2 try and get one with a few tasteful mods as that will save you money in the long term, rev3s + look a bit more modern and will yield you a little extra power when you want to raise the boost

Rev 1/2's make more mid range torque ( pull harder than rev 3's ) due to their nice big port heads... their blocks are also stronger too !! so there absolutely nothing wrong with a rev 1/2 turbo

find one that was clean so had to go for the girly one still with the right
