Okay, so i have a 1991 honda CRX, manual, and its teal, i love it
theres pictures in my bio
I dont wanna sound hella stupid or anything, ( i am a girl and only 16) i know alot about cars, just nothing really under the hood, haha.
so basically, i wanna do more to my car, i just need your guy's help and oppinions

 

hey hows it goin ?? take that filter off there and put a real cold air intake on ,or put the stock back on ,having a filter installed like that is pointless ,sure youll get a growl when you floor it but really its just sucking in hot air

so what do you want ,a fast car ??? are car that corners ???,a car that looks good ,
or all of the above ?? lol
there is so many things you can do ,its endless ,

edit whoops welcome and nice car

 

your license plate is offensive.

 

first thing is an MPFI swap...read all the Faq @ the top of the page and you will be able to school like 30% of HT people, because most don't even read the Faq and post useless ****. You may want to change your license plate because <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by EFinawesomeman &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">your license plate is offensive. </TD></TR></TABLE> and you may get docked points...have fun gl

okay phatboycrxhf
i thought that was the stock filter? but guess not, and someone told me i have the set up all ready for cold air intake, theres like a tube or something
i dunno, but thanks, ill look into that

 

oh and i do kinda want it all

 

Yea, get some kind of cold air intake or even short ram intake.


I have the stock intake tube with a K&N performance intake kit. Would probably be better to go with an AEM or something good.

Also, swap to a MPFI(the Si setup), and also put in a Si transmission.

 

hey i kinda live close to you... wanna buy a motor...i got some other parts layin around..

 

ok i can help u Un screw the three bolts on the distubutor they are 12mill wrench and turn the dizzy back toward the firewall all the way.It is better on gass and is faster.
and get a header and full exhaust like apexi ws2 cat back or dnx dtm.

 

buy an ebay cold air intake and a knn air filter. basically like phatboycrxhf said, figure out what exactly you want this car to be, then go from there

 

yea first you need to decide whether you want a fast car. a good cornering car. or just like a decent car that looks good. first of first though your gonna need to an mpfi swap if you plan on an engine swap well atleast a good one. then 2 atleast get basic bolt ons intake, header, exhaust.

 

Looks like shes already got a header(looks like a dc sports) and an exhaust, so there's a start.

Great advice


Honestly. Read the Faq. Then after that you'll be able to make your own decisions on what would be best to suit your needs.

Besides from that, figure out what your budget is. You'll need to know that before anything gets done underneath the hood.

 

EwwwWW that fart can.... (-.-) also hows it sound? and run, and handle for stock... But anyways welcome to the club. For sure ebay it up for intake.

 

you dont like my fart can
but yeah, it runs great, everythings good, it has a new klutch, new brakes, and a couple other new things
i do want to get a system in it tho. I have a cd player, but thats all. i do have all the hook ups and wires ready for amps and **** tho
the only thing i do need to do, (small ****) it needs some kinda of thing to hold the battery, the battery is just sitting there. And i guess the radiator is missing some kinda of brackets to hold it in too?
but yeah.

Small ****? You need to get that battery tied down RIGHT away, honestly thats a disaster waiting to happen. The radiator "should" stay in place. But yes you need to take care of that first.

 

i meant the cheaper things first

 

yeah you should really look into getting that battery tied down ,they have cheap tie downs at any auto parts store ,ebay even has them ,if that sucker hit the hood ,it will arc and blow up ,cause a fire and lets just say bye bye little honda lol

you can get a tie down for under 10 bucks

ebay intakes for around $20.00
if you by the ebay 2 piece intake ,make sure you by a water by pass ,you dont want to suck water in the engine and hydro lock that sucker
buy some new wires ,plugs and dizzy cap ,not the cheapo ones that a a buck a peice lol spend about a 100 on plugs ,another 100 on wires and a good 50 on a cap

you can allso look into getting a cam ,there is alot of good companys out there ,but i guess you dont want to throw a few hundred at that right now since you said the cheap stuff lol

it cost money to have a fast car ,thats why mine is slow hehe

ebay has strut tower braces for cheap allso ,they are not brand name but do the same thing as the high priced brand name ones

good luck

mitch

if so its called CELESTIAL BLUE PEARL either way i think its a kick *** color. get urself a nice set of rims drop it and it will look more than decent.

 

thats like asking why monkeys eat bananas lol why does it matter if its a old D ,my engine is older then hers . well you dont have too ,but i did and it was well worth it i think ,but i guess i should have said higher quality ones

those cheap bosh ,ngk moto master,acdelco ,plugs are junk ,why put money into a car spend $ on enigne work and what not and cut corners when it comes to wires and stuff ???lol stupid thing to do

thisis what is in my car right now

yes but i dont think she will be doing any engine work anytime too soon, so i think you will be fine with a regular ngk plug from Napa, stay away from copper plugs, all 4 new ones should only run you about $11.
