i had coilovers on my accord before i had when with a better setup, so i had put the coilover on the crx and did not get a drop, just did the rear so far , but it should still be dropped

Maybe its because you using a setup for an accord....accord are a bit heavier then then our trusty ef's...possibly and I could be wrong, but possibly the springs are rated for a heavier rear end which on a crx would make the drop less substantial...try using crx coil overs...also, what kinda shocks are u using on the rex? stock?
