Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
Whats is the difference between The CRX Si steering rack and a regular DX rack? they are both manual racks...Im trying to find a rack to install the quaife rack and pinion. are the racks different from 88,89..... 90,91? i know there must be some difference between si and non-si.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
anybody know where to get factory-matched spray paint?
i have a hatch assembly i am doing tons of hole-saw'ing and lexan to, and i'd like to paint it. its only a little bit of area showing, so its only gotta be pretty close

Try www.paintscratch.com or www.dupont.com or your local Autozone. If it's fairly common, they sell small spray cans of it. I've been meaning to get some myself.
I recently discovered that, in my case, Frost White from the EF/EG days is actually still produced, Honda just calls it Taffeta White now. Exact same color code. If you can't find it by the old name, do some research in this thread and see if there is a match by a newer name.
A can from Autozone/O'Reilly's will be much, much cheaper than ordering from paintscratch, btw.

Alright i saved that picture for reference. I actually thought about you when i was trying to remember if that lip fit because you had a 88-89 crx but couldn't remember.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
THERE IS A WEBSITE TOO WHERE YOU CAN ORDER PpG PAINT IN THE SPRAY CAN AS WELL BY THE FACTORY HONDA CODE. I HAVE THE SITE SAVED @ HOME AND WILL POST IT WHEN I GET THERE
OR
YOU CAN GO TO YOUR LOCAL PAINT SUPPLY AND ASK THEM TO PUT SOME FACTORY PAINT IN SPRAY CAN FOR YOU.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
funny thing is... i think im gonna get back into a crx. the s2000 isnt and wasnt cutting it for me and i heard that my old crx is just sitting on the side of the new owners house. i'm gonna ask about buying it back and doing a simple paint job with a simple kmotor. nothing fancy like before just a track *****.

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
How come everybody buys a S2000 and then not happy with it? I'm planning on buying a S2000 soon and still keeping my ef hatch though. Whats sooo bad about the s2000? I'm 5'7 and the s2000 should be fine for me. *shrugs*

Can anyone tell me the difference between the two racks? i know its less Lock to Lock on the Si... but why cant I put my quiafe QSR into the Si rack?

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
I've owner 11 Hondas and I wouldn't trade the S2000 for any of the others. If people can't appreciate the engineering and beauty they are looking at it all wrong. I plan on getting another one when the bay bays are a bit older.
