I found this old pic of my brothers 88 DX CRX. When the old DX motor went south at around 200k miles a 95 D16z6 block and head went in. Not wanting to attempt a whole MPFI swap the old dx intake and exhaust manifolds were used. VTEC was activated by the wire going to the shiftlight and adjustable to whatever RPM. The stock DX tranny was also used.



With all this done it ran a 10.5 1/8th mile. This was also done with the stock dx ecu dumping small amounts of fuel through 2 injectors and the little dx throttle body. This was back in the old rice days (98 or so) so yes the stripe, and one wiper has gone away now and the engine is now a B16, I just thought all you dx guys would get a kick out of this.

 

what were the 1/4 times?

 

It never went to a 1/4 mile track. I would guess it ran 16's. Much faster than a regular dx but still dog slow

 

mpfi would have made better power with my std head back many many months ago i did high 15s with just mpfi

 

We did the MPFI later and it did make a big difference in power.

 

with my stock motor i ran a 10.5 on the 1/8 and a 16.2 in the 1/4.. hopefully soon ill take out the z6 to the track to see what it can do now that it runs fine....

 

for some reason that looks awefully (sp?) nice. good job!
