Usually its just the fitting off the master... i cant even get my pedals back in with the bracket bolted up to it... I made a thread about it and the customer support from them is great... i just expect better fitment for the price.

I agree. For $150 for two pieces of painted steel that have been welded together it should be a direct bolt in. Looking at your pictures of it, I feel like I could make one of those for under $25. I would just need to find the 1/4" flat steel. Mine wouldn't be as pretty but it would work. lol

Just picked up my second CRX, an 88 si w/ a B16a. This is more of a daily with a budget. It used to be Y49, but its in primer right now. Spent the day peeling tints off and pulling the interior.. The car needs a good amount of TLC but at the price it was worth it.

Some Questions..
b16A water pump and timing belt part numbers? same as US motor?

Im not positive what ECU its running on, but I know he said it wasnt stock, said it was "spoon"....Its all stock so should I try and find a stock ECU? might be stupid but.. will my b18c ECU work with it?

When using DA RTA on a 88 si model (comes with rear drums) what else do I need to change? what E-brake cables? Anything else?

Thanks Guys, Ill still be working on the other CRX but having 2 at the same time just makes life that much better..and ill be having shoulder surgery at the end of the month so I need to get this all done by then before the snow comes!

I believe you'll just use the 99-00 Si part numbers

yea you use parts from either the 95 del sol Vtec or the 99-00 Si. Make sure the water pump you get has 22T stamped on the gear.

Blucivic: OUCH! Did it cause any damage? I know sometiems we get lucky!

Take the head to a machine shop to get checked out. Valves can be majorly bent or just slightly. Most likely you wont be able to tell by eye.
