Mini-me is pretty cheap, but can you do it? I would strip the interior

well, if you know about the CRX Si cam, then you likely know about the rest of my motor.

2 best upgrades for the DX.........
1. EX/Si tranny
2. AEM intake

Do youself a favor and save up some money for a engine swap or something else along those lines. All these cheap little mods arent worth it in the long run.

SI Tranny If you can get the 4.40 from the 88-91 CIVIC/CRX SI swapped into the 92-95 Si trany you'd be set.
Yup, Si tranny would be an awesome upgrade for ~$200. Best bang for the buck for the DX/CX/VX cars!

What type of racing and or driving will you do? Are you going to race wheel to wheel? If you are going to race w2w, I'll be glad help you out. I w2w road race a 94 Dx Hatch. If you just want to do autocross, open track, schools and spirited driving, you have two choices to start with, save up for a swap. The other would be, to do all at once, intake, exhaust headers and full catback exhaust. Those three things will make you happy. If you want the show& shine stuff, I am sure others can help you out. Then suspension. That can be a big can o worms on this board. Do what you want to do and what fits your budget.

but the CRX (L3) final drive doesn't fit in the 92-95 (S20) casing.
Also, CRX never got a 4.40 FD in a SOHC tranny!
