How long more can a stock 91 CRX Si engine with 225,000 kilos run with a proper maintenance? I won't do any swap until it goes but it runs great so far and I don't really have any complaints.

tnx

Depends on how well maintained it was. The D16A6 can go way past 275 with a little love. But keep in mind when it goes... a replacement from nippon is only $395.

 

i'd rather go for a ZC than a staight stock engine ...

 

well people usually go way over 250,000 before anything really expensive happens, but theres no real way to know how often oil changes and regular maintenance was done before you got the car.

best bet is to always do right by it, youll def get a lot more then you'd expect.

my 85si had over 250k

the folks across the street have an 89 sedan over 200k

id say you have a ways to go on that stockie.

 

with the proper maintanance a honda engine will last for a while, just be sure to change your oil regularly and regular tune ups

and dont drive it like your at the track. your tranny and clutch will thank you later

 

Are u saying miles and kilometers ... my odeometer is 225,000 km (140,000 miles) ... i check oil daily and change it every 5-6k km (3-3.5 miles).

I hope to run the stock to 300,000 km (190,000 miles) ... would be cool

 

I recently ran a compression test on my 91 d15b2.. 152k miles.. tested 180-180-170-175.. still very strong.. even with 8psi of boost!

 

no i had a crx si 1990 and im the 2nd owner but the guy i bought it from..he kind of gave it hell now and then but he took real good care of it maintnace wise...i got it with 372,000! miles on it and i drove it to 375,000 before i swapped a b16...and it ran real strong with the si motor took it to the track and ran a 10.12 in the 1/8

 

my neighbor has an accord he drive everyday that has 440,000 and counting.

 

My STD hatchback stock engine lasted until 195,000 before being rebuilt. It had highway miles before I got it.

 

Ive gotta 89 crxsi, I put a header cold air intake exaust plugs and wires and I plained the head for higher compression on the stock motor @ 104k. I now have 290k and ive beat the **** out of it and it still runs strong with alittle smoke at max rev.

 

My stock 91 HF has 218,xxx miles on, no problems yet...

*runs to knock on wood

 

ya i have 148 on my stock si motor runnin like a champ

 

The 91 Si I just picked up has 269,000 miles and the compression test I did last weekend showed 175-175-170-175. It has always been serviced regulary and driven responsibly (owned by a family member). It even had the original CV axles (which I changed because of some slight clicking), as well as the original clutch.

 

if you keep up with the car, dont even need to change the oil every 3k miles, thats a myth, check out how long your oil lasts anyways...your body will rust and fall apart before the engine does.

 

i also have a 92 VX hatch, 1.5 D15Z1 with 6 PSI and its running strong at 228K. change the oil offten and ur tune ups.. you'll go 300 easy!

 

88 hf 220xxx and running strong and will be... PLEASE BE!!!lol

 

i was looking at an 88 hatch the other day at the u-pull it and it had 389k miles on it. and a very thick stack of maintenance rediepts in the glove box. it was killed by a sideswipe or i am sure its rusty old *** would still be running.

 

what is nippons website?
any one know
thanks

 

my 90 si has 238,000+ on it and it's still going strong. it'll probably go to at least 300,000, but i plan to have a b16 swapped in before it gets there. i did see one for sale not too long ago with 375,000 on it that was still running well, so yours probably has quite a bit of life left in it. (and those are all in miles, not kilometers)

 

i have seen a CRX Si which had just barely over 400,000 miles on it.

 

You just never really know unless you really look over the car. I had 2 89 hatch's. 89si w/145k and burnt alot of oil and a 89dx with 225k and still didn't burn much oil when yanked.

 

my 88 crx hf had over 220k miles before i pulled it for a d16z6
but a new d16a6 can be found at http://www.kwcengine.com for $205!!!!!
