Default is anyone elses like this? CRX info

i just was able to get my car on the road at the end of aug. and i only drive on the weekends ( i work away from home during the week)

b18a engine (11:5:1 compression) in a 91 crx hf

there is a serious vibration (inside the car)... but outside the car you can't even tell the car is running... is this common for the swaps?
and steering is less than desirable ( its really squirrly around 120, so i am affraid to take it over it) really squirrly!) if i was to try and take a slight corner at 120 i wouldn't be able to move the steering wheel more than a 1/16th of an inch

i know slow down (i really don't drive that fast all the time)... but i would still like to see what the top is on her

most mount kits for the b-series are solid mounts so you'll get alot alot of vibration,,sounds like bass inside,dash is rattling at idle..its normal...for the steering its an old *** car ,,so get a new bushing kit to help bring back the steering

check your grounding straps. No joke, if there jacked, your car will vibrate... Also, make sure your spark plug cables are on there securely and in the right order.

Fresh poly mounts will vibrate like hell give them a little and they will loosen up a tad, my car was pretty bad after my swap and I only drove mine on weekends like you, give it a few weeks and it should get a little better
