Default CRX DX, got it today...!!!!!!!

Hey all, I picked up my new car today. It is a 90' DX CRX. I already have a 99' GSR ready to drop in. All I need to buy is some mounts, axles, and linkage, oh ecu + jumper and I am all done. Wish me luck guys. I will post some pics of the car in a few days...

Good to hear that you got a CRX. I built one for my finace - 91 CRX DX with 96 B18B1. I never get to drive it anymore Which tranny and mount kit are you planning on using?

I am planning on going with a Kenji-made jumper to run a p72 and most likely hasport mounts and linkage, unless, the linkage is that easy to make. Do I need to get the Si hubs to fit the 90-93 teg axles?

The 90-93 Integra axles will fit the DX hubs. Only the CRX HF and Civic STD need to be changed the DX or Si hubs since they have a different amount of splines. I have the HASport billet mounts and shiftlinkage.

If you plan to use the OBDI ECU, then you will want to use an OBDI distributor and injectors without a resistor box.

Also, is there room for A/C. I heard that someone is working on a bracket to use B-series A/C in the 88-91's

You can get the HASport A/C bracket and use your stock D series A/C compressor. It's a tight fit but there's no modifications needed, just bolts in.
