Well threw all of my reading I have finally decided. I am going to boost the zc swap I have and put it in the crx. After putting internals and doing head work I would like to see 300whp @ 25psi. Why I decided this is because I don't see alot of bad ass zc's out. It will be different. Cheaper, and mostly because It is going to be different the zc isn't to popular. Hopefully with what I do with mine I will change people's thoughts about the little engine. See you guy's at the races. OHH YEAH THANKS

k20 well lets not even get into that much money
b20vtec fairly cheap

If you want to go fast I think LS turbo would be nice or just do up a b16 for cost effective measures.......thats what im doing in my crx
Your both completely wrong. K-series is the way to go. H-series suck ass. Never do an h-series swap. Never seen one run times I thought it should. Auto-x use the stock motor. But drag or street Definatle go k-series. Or F20B.

The ZC will never handle it. Do more research. The aftermarket support sucks for ZC. Good luck on finding head parts other that reground cams. You will be spending more money on building your ZC for it to blow up the first time you think you are going to put 25psi in it. You will be faster with a basic B-series swap and mild build.

and how much money was spent on building it? Now if you want to waste that much money on a p.o.s. motor, have at it.

But not every one has that kinda money to throw down on a k-series swap and all the mounts and fabrication......I honestly think B-series would be best, Better platform to start off with, Well known and tuned motors and ALOT of aftermarket parts

I understand everyone's point. But I don't have the cash for a swap. Yes I would like a swap it would be great. But I have this zc. With a turbo, transmition, suspension, and a few engine mods in my crx which only weighs 1700 it will be pretty fast. I looked online for internals/ head stuff and I was surprised at how much I found. They have stuff out there for this engine I just think the unpopularity of it makes everyone think it is weak. I am in the process of buying the suspension so far I have got tein pillow ball mounts, skunk2 full coilover system. Next I am going to buy some rims probably some rota's. 15's that are lightweight. I think once I am done with this engine and I have reached the point to where I am ready to move on to something else then it will be all good till then I have to save. I am paying on my type-s still so I am not that rich
