Default ZC into '86 CRX

How hard is this install? Is it even possible?

Default Re: ZC into '86 CRX (94Accord)

depends on few factors: if the car is Fuel injected or carb...if carb forget about it unless you buy some side-drafts or some carb unit or simply convert to PGM-FI(alot of work)....

now as far as ZC..only JDM 85-87 civic or 85-87 integra units (88-89 will work but requires a little more work)
USDM 86-9 integra motors = ZC

for this you will require complete tranny, axles, motor, ecu, mounts, and might even upgrade front suspension adn rear (discs)

88-91 civic/crx ZC will not work so forget about....

Thanks for the info guys.

A guy here has a '86 CRX that he is giving away for free. The stock motor has a blown head gasket so it doesn't run. Is it worth it to get it, and swap a motor into it and make it a track car or something? Or just find a 5th gen Civic HB?

that's all up to you....a 5G civic + DOHC swap is gonna be $$$ compared to an 86 DOHC ZC swap. I actually have a hybrid how-to install pics on the 84-87 swap that I need to organize - I'll have it on my site sooner or later.

If the 86 isn't an Si....i guess you can forget about it cuz' wiring is not fun, unless you like to do that sorta thing.
