I might be picking up a CRX soon and i have a few questions...

I would like to kno if i swap the motor out with a B16, would i need to change hoods??? I really dig the JDM hoods but i dont want to go all out since this would mostly be a daily driver and i'm going into the sleeper look...

I hate having a loud exhaust after i went thru a Apex'i N1 exhaust (well, not really since everyone thinks im a motorcycle)... So i was wondering if there was a brand that makes very little noise as possible which still makes good power, so please list the brand names... And ground clearence is another factor...

I have a set of KYB shocks and Skunk2 coilover's and would they fit in the CRX... The suspension was off my EG6 which i had for a little trial until i got JDM LCA and went with Apex'i coilover's so i dont want them to go to a waste... Sway bar's is another thing... Do they come stock??? If not, would Integra's fit???

Thanx in advance

you don't NEED the JDM hood, but they're just tite so get one anyway, you need the whole front clip if you are doing that too.

for exhaust look to thermal and greddy for quiet deep tone, i have a friend with a b16 in hes crx with a thermal catback and it sounds real good.

and the suspension might not work on the CRX. i am almost sure that it won't.

 

the SI does come with front and rear sway bars, the others have front sway bars but i think you have to add either the rear controll arms or an aftermarket kit

No, B16 clears stock hood.

 

i sure hope the suspension fits..
i got a set of delsol coilvers and was told they fit before i bought them..

 

well from what a guy i know told me, the civic springs will not work on a crx. b/c when i wrecked my crx i wanted to use the eibach's on the hatch that i now have. he said that they wouldn't fit so i ended up buying some new springs and shocks.

one thing i do know will work. the camber kits for 5g civics work on 2g crx's

Thanx for the info guyz... Well my friend told me the springs are the same but the rear shocks would fit only if i change the bushing...
