I just picked up an 87 CRX yesterday, is there a kit that can convert it to look like the 88+ models or will body panels from the newer models bolt on with minor mods?

Thanks!

 

no no no and no just be an outcast and make it like a sweet replica of that rad MUGEN CRX i allways aee online im too lazy to dig up a pic but people barely mess with the older style rex's so more power to you if you make it nice ...

 

yea unfortanatly nothing from the 88-91 will fit on the 84-87, well not directly anyways, if you know how to cut and weld and get mounts you could do it all but i wouldnt really recommend it

 

87's are really cool but its really hard to find good pieces for it. check out mine. nothing to dramatic

more pics please!

 

i like 'em:




is yours an Si, DX, HF?

It wont matter when it comes to body parts, but it will come into play when (if) you decide to swap motors.

 

quad 4 engine ftw!

 

Go with the original look of the car. It's an 87, why act like it isn't?

 

Yea I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with it yet..it cost me $300..runs and I drove it about 30 miles yesterday, but had been in storage since 1998. I'm not really familiar with what swaps are "easy" in the 87 CRX..I don't really know all that much about these pre-88 crx's, I've got two integras and had a civic, pretty much spend most of my time in the Integra scene. This one has a decent amount of body damage so we're using it as a test car to repair and paint ourselves.

It's the base model, not the SI but not the HF..is that a DX?

I've got a B18a engine/tranny/wiring etc sitting in my garage...is there any chance that will fit? From what I understand I thought 88 was when honda started making the engine mounts in the CRX teh same as the ones in the civic, integra, etc, so maybe a swap into this might be difficult.

sorry for the long post.

actually i am about to swap the b18c in mine. you can get mounts for the 84-87 crx for all b-series swaps from hasport. and if you dont want to spend $600 dollars on mounts you can go with the slow d16a1. thats what i have now

 

here is a bdykit the rear bumper is ugly but the front bumper looks like a wings west 88-91 replicahttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...wItem

 

I say definatelly keep it stock on the outside!

thanks mate Love it every time I look at her in the garage!

IF you do anything to the outside of the car. Buy a housemanautosport.com body kit for it. I can't find any pics, but they are sweet. There is a guy that goes to Niagara with one every year, it is a super nice 1g.

 

is it blue??? I remember seeing pics of a blue one..

 

 

^^^^ not the houseman kit^^^^

that is a custom kit made by a guy in canada. i believe they are only on 3 cars.

 

 

oh god, a replica of a replica
