Default FT: 88 CRX HF TURBO for 4 door DA/DC LS OR GSR hell I'd even do a ITR. =D



Basically I had this car the day it was stock. I am the 3rd owner of this 88 crx hf. As you know the 88 crx hf is among the lightest of all hondas to this day. It weighs in at about 1,819 lbs stock. I've dropped a d16a6 from a 90 crx si into this hf and boosted it. The car dynoed at 180 whp / 178 ft trq. was tuned by Shawn Church @ Church's Automotive in about 1 1/2 hours, tuning isnt cheap! So when it comes to fuel management I dont half ***. And to this day it still has 175-180 psi across all 4 cylinders! I've had my car boosted for well over a half a year now. The car is in great condition but is not in the condition it used to be (as in the above picture), other than that its great! Im looking for a clean preferbly almost stock 4 door DA or DC in LS/GSR/ITR whichever is better =D lol j/p. I need a ride to take my little brother on fishing trips with me.

<U>LIST OF MODS</U>

Engine:
Stock 89 stamped from 90 CRX D16A6
90 Si Transmission
Clutch Specialties Stage 3 6 Puck Sprung (less than 10k on it)
Standard's 11lb Flywheel (less than 10k on it)
JDM .64/.80 T25G Garret turbo from s13 redtop (running both oil and water cooled)
HF Manifold
Weir Racing Adapter Plate
DSM BOV
DSM Sidemount Intercooler (I should get a picture of it, it looks SICK!)
2.75" Downpipe to Full 2.5" Exhaust (no half assed! 2.5" flex pipe & true mendrel bends were used)
1.25" Dumptube looped back @ about 18 inches into the DP! (The car is <U>EXTREMELY QUIET!</U>)
DSM Blacktops 450cc and Turboedit

Suspension:
Omnipower Slipovers
Tokico Blues
Front Strut Bar
Rear Strut Bar
Rear Lower Tie Bar
14" Miata Rims (weighs 11lbs each...fronts are basically new azenis and rears are 80% Yoko ES100s.) I like to switch them for wet and dry months.

Exterior:
88-89 Integra Lip
Autozone Foglights (jdm lookalikes)
And most importantly...the mudflaps! Took forever finding the rears!

Interior:
88-89 Si cluster
Sparco Speed Racing Seat (my 1st old school racing seat...ever since day 1, worn on left side)
Gsr Shiftknob
stock blue dash and interior peices in good condition (rear interior peices...not on car as of right now, but still have the peices in my garage).

The Good:
88 CRX HF
Sunroof (but doesnt work =D)
Replaced Timing Belt and Waterpump VERY RECENTLY! Im talking no more than 2 months now with less than 3k on it!
Smoke nothing but the purps I'd always say....10w30 Royal Purple all the time every 2k baby!
And especially...fuunn..

The Bad:
Front Bumper...little paint scraped off. Battle scar...
very little dings and maybe even a dent. But looks great! Paint is original since 88'.
dsm sidemount sits lower than the car so you'll have to be carefull when you drive it.
Burns very little oil, but who doesnt?
Muffler is kinda broken sooo...it rattles just a little. :D
As of right now the cable has some kind of a binding issue...not going into 1st sometimes BUT can easily roll it from 3rd or 2nd gear and back into 1st. And SOMETIMES...3rd grinds @ very high rpms im talking about 5k+rpm...
And....the car got broken into from about 3 months ago...and the bastards took my speakers, cd player and turbo timer! &gt;:[
