Best way to setup the front end on a CRX (Suspension related)
I was told to use 90-93 Integra Knuckles on my 88 CRX because I'm swapping a B18C1 when its back together. I'm wondering what would be the best thing I could do to my front end? Also, would Aftermarket shocks/springs still work from a CRX or should/can I get them for that Integra? I wanna go with Simple GC with Koni Yellows all around also, I don't plan on doing a huge drop of any sort, maybe 1-1.5".
Anybody have any tips or tricks to help me out? Thanks!

If you use da nuckles ues the whoile thing including the a arms are you will have some camber issues, i also recommend energy suspension master kit.

Thank you for your misinformation!
I just swapped in Integra disc brakes. Literally. Finished this morning. I used the knuckles and hubs only.
Camber is unaffected. Toe-in, however, was 1" total (1/2" both sides) after the swap so an alignment is not only advised, but almost a necessity.

Have you have your car aligned yet with the DA knuckles? When you took it in was the only thing that needed to be fixed was some toe and camber?

I had had the car aligned about 2 months previously, and I don't have an adjustable camber kit. The camber was unchanged from my last alignment (they give me printouts showing before and after). The only thing needing alignment was the toe, yes. My theory is that the knuckle attachment point for the tie rod ends is placed further inward (towards the center of the car) on the DA, causing toe-in.
The car was just aligned about 2 hours ago.

you don't have to use the DA knuckles to work.. if your car is not an Si, you'll atleast need Si hubs.. other than the must have Si hubs, you can use 90-93 integra axles as long as you remove the dust shields behind the hub.. or, you can get Si-R axles from http://www.raxles.com which should just plop right in..
So the DA knuckles are all we need to have the bigger brakes from the DAs?
Do the lower balljoint and wheel bearing from the crx fit the integra hub and knuckle?

i had camber problems (neuspeed race springs) and after i did my 99 si fronts and rears it now is near perfect i did the alignment myself (just eyeballed it took it down the road and then adjusted it agan and it feels like stock) but i had no camber probs at all acually im not even going to get a camber kit thats how awsome it is it almost looks like 1 or 2 degrees positive
very old post but i need help. my lower ball joints on my rex are shot and for the price of a new lower ball joint its almost coming out to one integra knuckle. so all i need is the whole front knuckle? nothing else? are the lower and upper control arms of my rex ok to use with the integra knuckles? and year 90-93 right?
just wanna double check, thx.
