do i need to get a crx jdm hood to fit a b18c in my crx? how is the clearance on underneath also? which engine mounts do u guys prefer?

 

Go hasport and use spacers to drop the engine abit lower. Mine barley hits this way. ALl you need to do from there is cut the web under the hood alittle and youll be good

 

wat about the headers or oil pan? any problems there

 

would you be interested in cf hood that was reverse jdm stlye but still fit the stock headlights? vis sells one last i heard, also check carbon creations

 

you dont NEED the jdm hood or even the jdm-style for the US front end, but it would definitely be nice to have. I have a b18c1 in my CRX w/ AZRace mounts, i trimmed the hood supports out a bit, and it still rubs a tiny bit. I'm not really worried about it and personally, I would rather not shim the engine down.

Anyone have a picture of what part of the webbing needs to be cut. Im trying to finish my crx si. And want to know exactly where I should cut.

Thanks in advance.. Pic of the car so far for views not complete!

 

 

I layed down some tape, and cut where it picked it up, dont over cut, it will wrinkle.

damn thats a **** load!

I have a ef hb si
hasport mounts
I just did the swap like 3 months ago.

All i ended up doing was cutting about 3inches worth of the underside metal bracing of the hood. (skeleton of the hood)

i don't know how to alter the picture and rep host it up but i did it within like 5 min using a pair of WIRE cutters!
not hard.
if you have a sprint phone I can send you a picture.

Awesome thanks.. Cant wait to fire this beast up.. Its almost done.

Im hoping for some mid 13s

 

listen guys thats just a general area. if/when u see my car, u will see that i let it rub, so that the hood would have marks on it so i would know where to cut it out.
unfortunatly, i let it rub a little too long and my valvecover looks like ***

 

this is a trip to listen or read???

as I have a CrvTec in mine EF and have no issue whats so ever

using PR mounts
