Default CRX DX and some SI parts

I own a 1990 CRX DX and have a (think 91) civic si with a hole in the block. I am going to send the civic to the junk yard. But, sould I consider taking the fuel injection & intake off the si and put it on my crx. Is this a bolt on swap? Is it even worth the trouble?

i would try parting the si out if it is a 91. it has a lot of stuff people would buy like rear disc brakes conversion $150, mpfi ecu & harness intake w/fuel components $100, front bumper(good condition) $50, wheels $75, trans $100, sunroof assembly $50, and so on. you could also transfer all that stuff to your other crx. you could do a mpfi conversion on your dx but it probely wont be worth the hassle without the better si bottom end and a better head. in my opinion, not worth it. this is all just my opinion, do whats easier for u.

Ya thanks for the feedback. I rather spend the time and put a faster motor in the CRX. I was just wondering.... Also, the civic has drums in the rear, But it has a rear sway bar. I was thinking about moving that over to the crx. but I would have to swap the arms out. Im not sure they are the same size...

saved in faq 2.0

D16A6 Honda Civic Si/ CRX Si 1988-1991 108HP/100 TQ
-MPFI(4 injectors)
-mated with 5spd tranny(4.25 final drive)
-best candidate for a swap or A6 buildup due to little modification of wiring harness and the hubs will accept most axles
-90-91 CRX Si's had 4 wheel disc brakes all other models (exc EX coupes) had rear discs-common swaps: ZC DOHC, D16Z6/Y8(sohc vtec), B16A, B18C, B18C5, B20Z/B, H22A
D15B6 Honda Civic HF / CRX HF 1988-1991 62HP/83 TQ
-MPFI(4 injectors)
-crappy 5 speed tranny geared for gas mileage
-good candidate for a swap because: lightest chassis, little modification to wiring harness, although hubs will need to be swapped for SI/DX hubs to accept any other axles if using a non HF tranny
-common swaps: ZC DOHC, D16A6, D16Z6/Y8(sohc vtec), B16A, B18C, B18C5, B20Z/B, H22A

D15B2 Honda Civic DX/LX, CRX DX 1988-1991 92HP/89 TQ
-DPFI(2 injectors)
-5 speed tranny geared for MPG, better than HF tranny, STD models have 4 speed tranny
-for swap you must first convert to MPFI via an HF/SI wiring harness and resistor box. Most abundant model in my opinion and cheapest but most work although you can also add your own wiring to become MPFI.
-common swaps: ZC DOHC, D16A6, D16Z6/Y8(sohc vtec), B16A, B18C, B18C5, B20Z/B, H22A

Well, its a 91, so I don't have any 1990 parts. As for the center console, you say "Like the crx" this civic shifter is not part of the dash like my crx. I will have to check in the daytime if it has the rear speaker trays.
