New to the forums since I just bought my first CRX yesterday. I bought a pair of CRXs for 1400 together; one is a parts car and the other is the one that is going to be my daily driver. I am basically just going to be documenting everything that I am going to be doing to it in this thread.

The main one I am going to be working on is a 1991 CRX HF that I am planning on putting a mini-me on it plus going to be fixing all the body work that the idiot who owned it before me did in a half-@$$ed way.

Now for the pics of the car as I found it. Can be found here, since for some reason the boards don't get a long with Picasa all that well.

Any advice as I continue on would be greatly appreciated.

 

are you planning on swapping motors or just keeping the stock one?

 

 

You dont have to agree w/ my advice.. in advance.. sorry for english.. i would rather concentrate only on one car.. lets say.. yeah this one is gonna be my daily driven car.. and this other one ryt here is for my drag or watever u wanna to it.. its saves money and time.. unless if ur guy owns a shop or a hotel that has a lot of money.. u dont have to agree. its not mine its urs.. do wat makes u happy... keep us updated :D please dont hate.. im new here also lol

 

hope u gotta derice the body kit and out ef8 front end

 

kilassapsap, Unfortunately the part car shell is in pretty bad shape. I may try to save it. But we'll see how bad it is after we strip the part off it. We really dont wanna send another CRX to the scrap yard.

 

oh ok. keep us updated :D

 

If u "de rice" the front end i want it.. I love rice..

Im new to this site looks pretty awesome lots of jerks but overall a good place for honda people I love ur Rex btw

 

nice project!

 

De-riced

Ok thanks man. Just let me know. Im a little ricer kid. lol Well iv got a bit done 2 engine but i also like lookin spiffy lol...


:D

 

How do you remove the shift linkage pin?

 

Typically referred to as the Bitch Pin. There are a few options:

1) Specialized tool
2) 'Ole fashioned beat'er out method

I typically use a beater Pozidriv to knock it out with few whacks of a rubber mallet. This is obviously not the proper removal technique but does suffice. Type "bitch pin" in the search feature to discover actual threads on this topic.

 

Thanks man we got it beat out

 

i always wonderd myself. Thanks.. Now i can swap to the Si tranny =]

 

Hey spiffy PM me about buying the entire body kit if you want it

 

D16A6 head? is it any good? I might want that more than the bodykit. :D i need a more agressive cam. My car is fast all motor but i wannna make her faster and well that would do it. Let me know if its good and how much ud want

 

Not with A hf head thats 8 valves. b6 motor if i remember right

 

Your car isn't fast... But FYI you can swap a ZC cam into the D16a6 head.

 

i have a 88 crx si shell im dropping in a b20 high compression in it..im making it vtec with a b16 head..im running it with obd1..but idk what tranny to use b16 or gsr..any advice on which ones better?

 

My car has a D15b1 bottom end, D15B7 head intake manifold, injector's fuel rail and all that jazz. Has a D16a6 computer and dizzy. header,cat-back and 10.2mm wires, long tube intake, Port and polish and a short throw shifter cut short, its pretty fast i just think a D16a6 cam would be more agressive and make it fast i run next to my buddy who has a 240sx and he runs a high 14 and thats with the 4-speed tranny.

Im not saying its super fast but its pretty fast. Most modded cars where i live dont run a 15 lol. It hits 94mph before the 1/4 mile mark. Ill upload a video some time.

D-series all the way.

 

So you saying d series is better then b series?
