PI!!

 

I did a little search on that I know it's possible but It did not tell me what model,year,make where I can get the axle, mount and other parts that need to complete a swap into a crx. I have never done this before. so please go easy on me. but if you need know how about coverting a 914 porsche into v8 that I would be expert into it.

 

well alot of the swap would depend on what model crx you have. let us know that and we can point you in the right direction. but you will def need a motor mount kit, shift linkage, ecu, axles from 90-93 integra, 90-93 integra half shaft, radiator hoses from a 90-93 integra,Rear mount bracket from 90-93 integra, if you have an hf model then you will need to change the hubs to fit the axles and also check out rywire.com for all your wiring needs. just to name a few things

 

you will also have to buy lots of little things here and there and it all adds up.. just have cash on hand. your best bet is to find a whole teg and get all the parts you need off of it.

 

well thank you for the information. I have a 89 crx Si. so your saying that pretty much I can use all the parts from the 91 acura where I got the motor right?. If so that's wonderful.

 

yes, and since you have an si, you dont have to change the hubs and the wiring will be a lot easier.

 

thank you hondaFerris for your help. just wondering what do I expect from this motor hp? 160 or higher

More like 130hp..

Like hondaferris said you'll need an aftermarket mount kit and linkage..Or cut and reweld the stock linkage..90-93 integra axles..You Have to remove the dust ring from inside the crx hubs otherwise the axles will bind..Make a decent size dent on the innder fender for alternator clearance..Most mount kits require you to use the 90-93 integra rear mount bracket..Also take the radiator from the integra if you can (if its in good shape ).

 

oh man that's alot of work for only 130hp..I think my sohc is better then that...well thank's for all the info guys...

 

yes nice swap choise,,,but search and find out more...actually go back to the CRX/EF forum and look at the FAQ ull fin dlots of answers to lots of questions

 

at least you have a B motor

...and prolly go LS/CRVTEC route later

 

yes your d series may beat the hp rating but in torque the b will make up and easely beat a d series but if you get the ls you should swap to a b16 hydo tranny with it
