Ok guys I found another crx and I am wondering if I should get it. Here is the details through the email the guy sent me.

"1991 CRX HF 275XXX MILES

Si rear wiper

Si radiator

Si rear interior (cargo cover)

Si passenger mirror

Acura factory tape deck

Needs clutch currently has the original, the pressure plate is warped but the car is still driven without problems.



Extra stuff

New sheet metal for the 2 major rust spots (still very minor for a 16 year old Honda)

D16z6 block needs honed but has been notched for aftermarket rods and hot tanked currently painted black

Tuner Toys rods new design with arp 2000 bolts rated for 700hp brand new in box paid 255 with shipping

Z6 head with JG cam and AEM cam gear and v-tec solenoid

Very solid stainless steel top mount turbo exhaust manifold unsure of make.

Halo projectors came off of a 1990 crx

All stock internals

New timing belt in package

Rough set of Ground Control coil-overs with Eibach springs

I bought everything used except for the rods which I have the receipt for if you want it everything looks to be in good shape except for the coil-overs they only have about 80% adjustability the damaged threads are on he side for the highest ride height. I want to get rid of the car because I am going back to school and I don’t have anywhere to keep it.

I would really like to get rid of it as a package deal $1200 for everything..."

What do you guys think. I havent got to see the car yet but my brother says its in very nice shape and is red. He said he couldnt see any rust.

Well 1 of the crx's I have had since I was 18. The problem is that I rolled it acouple years ago. The only reason why I still have it is because I havent gotten rid of all the parts.
The 2nd one I bought because I thought I was going to fix it up. But when I started taking it apart I noticed it was ATE up with rust. O well I only gave 100 bucks for it, and it had a MINT climate control that I sold for 200..haha
The 3rd is the one I have now. Its the one you see in my project thread. B18a...
The 4th is the one I am thinking about buying. Its pretty much bone stock with extras...I am wanting this for a DD.<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by 91ed9 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">if you have the space do it

If I do buy one I might be selling the Si when I get it done.

I have pity on your soul; I bought the same wheel from the same seller I'm sure (or at least the same factory) and it was fine for a few months. I've been DD and having fun with some light autox / road racing and the thing is coming apart all over now.

There's currently 3-4 different pieces of the leather pulling away from the wheel now; basically the thing is glued together with stitching that looks like it might be fo weals.

enjoy it while it lasts, my next wheel will probably be momo/sparco.

lol, shitty. I got a deal on my HF. I just took the head off to see if the valves hit the pistons or not because the timing belt snapped. But the valves and the pistons look perfect. So I think Im going to buy a new head gasket and timing belt and put it all back together and see if she runs! For 500 bucks with a decent body and an almost running engine isnt bad

Might want to replace the valve seals while you’re at it. They are pretty cheap and you can check out the valves while your in there.
