Yeah his is a five speed, sounds like the auto's had it.
Dang I've been racing with ps for awhile and I drove a CRX that didn't have it, felt like a heavy go kart. How feasible is it to put ps in?

Are you kidding me? Lol. Driving a hatch without power steering is just as easy as any other car. Grow some muscles and quit whining...

90-91 si auto hatch came optional I think. I've seen some at the junkyard on the stock engine there are mounting bolts on the cam side

This is true.
Just like how the states have STD with 4 speed, while our CX has 5 speed.
However, power steering ONLY came on Sedans from factory.
It is very possible to put it in a hatchback... probably fairly easy as well.
It's one of my upcoming projects.

Here's the facts:

All 88-91 civic with automatic transmission have power steering from factory
and in Canada all 88-91 civic with manual transmission have non-power steering except for the 91 special edition

note that the 91 crx si se dont have power steering too

Hey now, I went to the gym once

Anyways thx for all the info, I'm sure I could get used to no ps quickly but I like the way I can literally throw the wheel in my 99 sedan.

You must not autox.

275/35/15 Hoosiers are retarded with any amount of power behind them.

I'd gladly add ps to my ef for this reason alone. Well worth the extra weight IMO.
