yeah good find. That thing must be killer fun.

Replace bumpers, lose the headlights or get nicer ones. Ditch the seats and you're on your way for a nice project car.

Yeah I dont use the harness, the seatbelts still on the door. But yeah I dont know whats up with the rear bumper. I paid 5 g's and gave the guy a y1 tranny. I think thats a pretty good deal considering the smsp header, the recaros, the hondata, str cam gears, taylor battery box in rear, z-10 traction bar and pwr radiator. Also, does anybody have any advice a good suspension setup for an h22 crx? Right now the car wants to go all over the road

VW and Honda don't mix. The car is trying to kill you because of the seats. lol

You'll want to stiffen up the front. I'm hearing good things about D2 and K-Sports, and prices are dropping like a hot brick. You might want to check out these with custom springrates.
12/10 is fairly common...should make it stiff enough. You could go a bit heavier in the front...but I'm not sure how much heavier that H22 is.
Might be alignment too.

if i'm not mistaken the h22 weighs about 2x as much as a stock d series for that car would weigh. so, yea, she's a bit heavier. understeer like a ****. it's gonna be a pain in the *** tryin to get the suspension all worked out on this car, but if and when u ever do, it should prove to be worth it.

That rear bumper is so cool????? It doesn't look like a bad car other then the bumper, and I don't undestand why I keep seeing cars with the exhaust coming ouy the rong side. I'm not trying to bash your car, but I see everybody talk about things being ricey. Is this a situation that that would apply to. No dissrespect to any one I just don't understand.

Why does everyone feel the need to flat black every car on the planet? Quit ruining cars people.

Nice crx man! Do with it what you want.

The reason for the exhaust coming out the wrong side is so it doesn't make those wicked bends after the axle. Frees up the exhaust a little. Cody wasn't trying so much to make the car look pretty, he was more focused on going fast hence the holes in the bumper too. Not pretty but functional.

Those holes are hardly functional with the spare tire well still in the back of the car. But yeah with the stock suspension this car spins the tires all the way through 1st no matter what, then it spins all the way through second and spins into 3rd pretty good. Also does anyone have any input on the axle binding issue? And SETI20 my seats are vdub recaros? I think they look pretty good.

I like it. Except for the little things that it needs, but then again it is a CRX evrery CRX owner has something they can be doing to their car. But most of all I love those seats. Kinda pricey but ehh, when you get some suspension I bet that thing will fly
