would i be able to use the factory mount that come with the b16 a1 engine on my 90 crx if not .why didnt the ef8 crx come factory with that engine also what is the difference between lsd and non-lsd why do i need it if im just building an every day driver?

 

help i need answers

 

you can use the mounts from the jdm motor, but most times there to messed up to use thats why prople use other mounts..

 

No you can't use the stock b16 mounts. The mounts in the engine bay are placed differently on USDM and JDM models. To use the stock b16 mounts, youd have to relocate your current mounts (cut them out, and reweld them into the proper spots = basically making your engine bay the same as the JDM CRXs)

LSD = Limited Slip Differential. If you're just building and every-day driver, you dont need it as much, but if you're planning on racing at all, you'll want it for the added traction.

 

LSD you don't need it, unless you have lots of power say over 200hp.

How much money do you have for mounts? Thats usually what decides for a lot of people (not the greatest way to decide, though..).

I'm running Arizona Race & Machine's billet mounts in my CRX, and I love them. It gets a bit of vibration between 1-2k rpms, but its dead quiet and smooth at idle.

http://www.azracemachine.com $310 shipped.

A lot of people will also say Hasport. They make nice stuff as well, but its a little more expensive. Then you can find some generic steel mounts for around $200 on eBay and such, but they usually get mixed reviews.

 

also which axles do i use cause the motor im ordering comes with Engine, trans, ecu, OEM axles, OEM shift linkage what else to i need besides the mounts

 

will all the stuff coming with the engine fit or do i need to buy these parts again but made to fit????

 

bump

 

Wow, bumping your thread after 22 minutes. This isnt the classifieds. The CRX forum doesn't move THAT fast.


Anyways, the axles should work as long as you get the intermediate shaft that goes with them. Use the axles and corresponding intermediate shaft. You may have to remove the dust shields on the outside of the axles so they wont bind.

What car did the motor/shift linkage come out of? Unless its from a JDM crx, the shift linkage wont bolt right up. Most commonly, people either buy a pre-fabbed one from Hasport or Avid or other companies, or they make their own. You can take a 90-93 Integra linkage and cut it down approximately 2 to 2 1/2 inches, weld it back together and have one that works.

Do some searching on this site for a bit. All these answers are here.

 

thanks for all you help my friend
