I don't know if you have ever read GRM (grass root motorsports) but he and his buddies won the 2009 challenge car last year w/a boosted CRX
I can't think of his username but there is a guy on here with a white 5th gen that took part in that. Doing it again this year too.

Those challenges sound pretty sweet, I love to see cars built with a budget limit then raced haha.

Hardtops go anywhere from 500-1200$, all depending where you get it, the condition, if its oem or not, etc.

You can't find 1.8's over here lmao. Only choice I have is to buy one from a place that ships them. Which will be anywhere from 800-1100$... :(
