b16 is a good choice for that car very easy and somewhat cheap

V6 in a crx. I don't think so. Read this thread. https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=218298
I personally, would go with the dohc zc. From what i've figured and read, it's the most bang for the buck, but opinions vary. If you do anything else, you will never get your money back if you ever decide to sell it.

HAHAH! That made my day... Sorry, dont mean to make fun... Its just a funny question... A V6 is about as big as the front half of the car, so no I doubt one would fit... The only 6 cylinder Ive ever seen in a CRX is the NSX engine... Which is a mid ship engine... So I guess it is possible... If you slap it in the hatch area, and do about $20 worth of modifications... But its not very practical or affordable...

Think more towards an Accord... Like the Accord V6... Or a Honda that already has a V6 in it... But the bottom line is, Honda isnt known for its V6 engines (safe for the NSX engine)... Its known for the inline 4 engines... A CRX with a B16 would eat up a stock Accord V6... Hell I could probably take my brothers modified (i/h/e) AV6 with my SOHC D15B VTEC'd CRX... Simple power to weight ratio... The V6s are more for the sedans with the heavier chassis and more options...

Yeah, if you're looking to put a large engine into something, a CRX is not for you.
