Hey everyone.. im honestly pretty new at CRX/EF tech, so help clue me in. What does a 88-91 CRX run with a stock GSR motor in it out of the box? Also what is required to drop a GSR into a CRX? I have the motor in a EG now, but am tempted to switch to a sub or around 2000lb car.

Thanks

 

Couldn't tell ya what it would run, too many variables, suspension, driver skill, etc.etc.etc. But I'll tell ya this, I got a 9.0:1 compression LSVTEC in my 90 CR-X and I put 2.5 lengths on a 50 shot 97 Lude yesterday, and put one length on an auto LT1 from a 65 punch on the freeway yesterday too, I just got the motor in the car and broken in, and I'm starting to see how much of a difference weight makes.

 

WAIT A SECOND HERE!!!! Just making sure that you guys know that CRXs aren't always lighter than "EG" hatches....a lot of Egs are a bit lighter than comprable model CRXs.

 

actually he's right, my friend has a strippped out '94 cx with a b16a sir2 motor and trans. removed the power steering and a/c, even the heater system. it weighed in at 1916 lbs. with driver and 1/2 tank of gas

 

well he's got a 4dr, so it is much lighter ....do it N8...it would be the ****, and hella fast

P.S. like the name

it will take motor mounts, linkage, 90-93 integra axles and some wiring. i do not know what all else is needed, possibly OBD 0 distributor, sensors? my guess is that it should run about a 14 flat.

 

cx's dont have power steering

 

I thought there would be a problem with clearance. Isn't the gS-R motor almost 2 inches taller than the ls?

 

Yeah depending on how the motor is installed, you may need to cut some of the webbing out of the hood or even get a new one all together. Some mount kits actually sit the motor lower and a little farther back to fix the clearance issue. HASport for instance.

 

hybrid where in nova? im in va falls church
four bangin, i think there is a team around here called that, your crew?

 

nova nova
nope

 

Yeah but I dont want to gut the interior. It may me 75% racecar, but damn I gotta drive my woman in it, and have to get to school everyday... not having AC in 90 degree+ weather every day sucks enough as it is... THe sedan only weight 2475 with driver and 1/2 tank of gas.. not too bad for a sedan...
