Woah! You're getting rid of the popups? They are so awesome though! Nice find man. Not too shabby!

[Hazwan]

Interior is MINT!

[carotman]

Don't get rid of the pop-ups. It makes the CRX Unique.

Wash the windshield!

[Tomisimo]

nice and get rid of that looser badge lol
No man I love it, in fact it was one of my favorite cars when I was 18yr..

[AccordB20A]

the popup header panel is rooted, like 100% fucked, and theres no way in hell your going to find a new one thats not damaged so its just going to have to be face lifted.

Holy shit! I love the first generation CRX, it was the first sporty Honda I ever rode in. Bring it to the east coast meet.

mate has some lowering springs for the rear and i can loosen a nut in the front to wind down the torsion bars but i dont wanna bottom out the shocks so it will be staying standard height until i can find some konis maybe

i just purchased a head unit for it and paid for it. now i need to locate an alarm and install central locking

I looked at a first gen crx before I got my accord. It was just to tinny for me. Awsome car though!

[AccordB20A]

thanks man. got the grinder out and played with the carb hat last night haha


Also checked out why the car would stall sometimes and be hard to start, the fuel level in the float bowl was pretty low so i upped it up to beteen the marks and she runs mint as now. Cant be bothered de vac'ing the card yet but i will some day, its cvcc so i dunno how that will work out lol
next update will be sound system related

[2ndGenGuy]

Now you can stick a taller filter on there

[Hazwan]

That looks better. I bet it sound good too!

[AccordB20A]

Same deal with me. I'd have bought the CRX too, when the seller wouldn't have changed his mind at the pick-up day.

Nice CRX though, I didn't even know they had pop-ups. Nice!
Hope to get a CRX too in the future, love 'em.

i have put aftermarket 4" door speakers in also. Waiting for the right sub box and sub to come up then ill do that also i have a 4 channel amplifier in my room that will go well in this car.

the POS overheats fail motor, My mate has an EW5 enginer which is from a civic, its a cvcc EFI motor so i may install that, i got some headers too pics later

[lostforawhile]

what was the horsepower on those? you got the tiny engine, a stock 81 civic was 1500 cc, and it was cvcc too. had a screaming 67 horsepower. I would have though there they wouldn't be cvcc, we used to get heads out of canada that were cross flow and dump the cvcc heads.

[AccordB20A]

the EW im sticking in is rated at 110 PS (110 hp) 5800 rpm 13.8 kg/m (10.2 lb·ft) torque
the EV in it now is around 60hp haha
