Re: Thinking about buying a crx. (Dmc1)
Yeah Ive been doing some research on here for the last 2 months our so.My orginal plan was to turbo my 92 accord.But tonight I just changed my mind.
I'm going to buy a crx when I sell the old accord and do a b16a g2 swap.
then after thats done turbo the b16.
Any thoughts is thier a better swap for the money I can get a good b16 for 1100 shipped?

It depends. Weight is important to me. So I like to stick with 1988 non-SI models. All SI models have a mandatory sunroof. And this adds over 40 pounds in the worst possible place. So unless you want a sunroof, an SI is not the best choice. Also, all 1989+ CRXs (except the 1989 HF) have door mounted seatbelts. And the reinforcement required for these add considerable weight. So the way I see it, the best choices are a 1988 HF, 1989 HF, or 1988 DX. Of these three, the 1988 DX is going to be the cheapest and easiest to find. Oh, and don't let anyone talk you out of a 1988 DX because of having to upgrade to MPFI. This is actually a trivial job.
