Seconded.

And I am pretty sure that the k20, doesn't put out 225hp. At least not from the factory. If it does, then Brandon has the worlds slowest Civic Si, as I beat him around the helena track in my 90 hp(in 1984 on a good day) Rabbit. OH BURN!!

RABBITS are the cats meow right now, and now is the time to get em while you can still find them, at the end of the day a gutted rado is still probably more weight than a full interior rabbit

I just wanted to chime in and say I love my Corrado!!!

its not about the love of the rado, i would LOVE to have a vr rado.... but to drop a honda engine in it would be something else, why not build a lightweight g60 rado with an eaton, would be a super cheap conversion give shit loads of torque for auto x or whatever

I wouldn't be putting a Honda engine in a VR.. I would be getting an engine-less Corrado and putting a different engine in.

The eaton has been done a million times. With the K20, you have an awesome transmission... Not a crappy 020 or 02A with syncros made out of butter.

Thats an awesome deal. Comes with everything! Transmission, wiring harness, etc.
