I have been thinking for the past few weeks since I obtained my CRX. Everywhere I look ppl are doing B16a, K20S, H22S,B18C, swaps. What about a B16B? ALot engineering went into this motor and a lot of ppl write it off as 15hp for another 1000. I want to build this motor into my car, because it reflects me. It has huge potential, but it is often underestimated and looked over. How hard woul dit be to swap into a CRX and if anybody has done this swa p please help me in getting info on the maitenance and tuning options. Plz do not give me the research the internet response. This swap is so uncommon that it is almost impossible to find info on it.

 

the b16b isn't much different then doing any other b-series swap..also that its an OBD-2, so all the necessary requirements for making your car obd-2 compatible will needed to be performed...but thats about it..


p.s. A LOT of people have done this b16b...its fairly common..

edit: "Your search for crx b16b returned 9 results."
"Your search for crx ctr returned 29 results."

 

not to throw u of subject. but if u wanna be even more original drop in an h series. not a lot of ppl have done it yet and u have way more potential thatn that b16. u can get up to numbers that b16 would never get to.ikd. just my 2 cents

 

B16b's are not really as strong as people make them seem.

You're pretty much just paying for the name.

 

The H-series ihas potential, but I am planning on doing circuit racing and auto x. I do not want torn CV joints every week.

 

so you have potential, and you are often underestimated and overlooked?

are you the scrawny type?

The B16B is a good motor, but with a title thread like Ultimate CRX, You need a K20A type-r. Forget the H series for circuit racing. They are for one thing way to cramped in an EF bay, for another they add weight, that would make your suspension harder to setup, not to mention there isn't much support for that engine, and with a K swap placing the engine on the pass. side, helps with corner weighting. Since it's on the opposite side of the driver. Bar none if you want to make power K series is where it is at nowadays.

 

in a thread titled "ultimate crx" your reffering to a motor with very little displacment.

im not knocking you, i run a b16 but itd be ludicrious to call it that when mildly worked gsrs walk me....

get me?

 

if you want to rev high go with the CTR , yes it would be pretty cool cause of the rare factor of the CTR , but for the price of dropping it in , you could build a z6 boost it and smoke the **** out of some CTR , h22 and gsr equipped crxs and still have a lil change left to buy a sonic drink and tater tots
