    Hey, i'm new. My name is Brandon and I live in Fargo, ND. I've been into cars for a few years. Right now I have a 90 CRX as a long term project, I also have a rust free DA teg. Other cars i've had are a 91 crx with jdm dohc zc swap, a couple ef hatches, and other beaters. I'm looking at getting a subaru for an all year DD, and a future project when the crx is done. Right now i'm just trying to find one, and as much as I can about them, before I get one and start digging into it.

    Welcome! ... And thats about all I got for you, because I could only understand half of what you said. :ugh::biggrin: (I follow cars, but not hardcore like most on here).

    Get enough posts in and time, and you'll be able to check out the for-sale section on here. There's always a few cars there for sale..

    Best of luck. All i can say is pound the crap out of craigslist carsoup keepitlocal and searchtempest daily. Crap floats out there forever and good stuff gets snatched up fast.

    Welcome to the boards!
    I've always heard the ZC's were a good match for the CRX's.

    Im also looking for a Subaru, preferably a wagon, to use as a DD. Got me a 00 Si right now, just stock. I still like the Honda, but worrying about thieves and the whole not driving it winter thing kinda sucks! Cant wait til i can save up some more money and get me a Suby car! GL on your search!

    We dont have to worry bout the theft that much in our area... I just want one for a fun winter car, and also something to drive till i get off my butt and finish the crx..
