I sold my 77 Chevy LUV and bought this terd to drive around. Hell, its nowhere near as nice as Coolrex's new ride but im still happy. I got a SUPER deal on it and with just a few repairs done today its running perfect. :wiggle:
HAHA! it has a friggin padded nos racing seat style cover on it..its straight JDM yo! adds like 17hp..... No, but seriously the seat cover is ghey but it covers a giant hole in the drivers seat lol. ne one have a hookup on some seats?
cool, I have a 240sx that gets great mileage too, if i ever manage to break a KA24DE somehow, replacements are everywhere just like yours
Does it have a bump the near the gas cap? If so, I owned that car 8 years ago!! It was running awesome!!
While the ride height looks silly and I don't know what's going on with the hood I wouldn't knock a second gen CRX. Second Gen CRX/EF Civics have some of the best suspension geometry (double A-arm all around) on a FWD car versus the mostly McStrut layout that Subarus have.
It's not that bad of a car on a new moon night and I think it has more ground clearance than the Ranger
LOL yeah it's up there. I'm gonna be lowering It sooner or later. A friend of mine just donated a vtec head for it. It's sooo tempting to slap that on there for more power but I think I'll leave it alone for now. I spent today rebuilding the brakes and wiring in a radio and speakers. It's coming along nicely, all it really needs now are some tires.
Here is a pic of mine: Not as low as my civic, but I can pull into my driveway without scraping I have a couple of D16Y8 VTEC heads if you need them. Both of my cars have the stock D16A6 in them. I also have some D16A6 heads.
i have a full ground control setup on my 2003 WRX. the reason i choose ground control is because i had that setup on my 91 CRX HF. i loved that car. been driving since 68 and the CRX is one of my favorites of all time. i am tempted from time to time to see if i can find one i can bring home.. my car wouldnt go more than about 90. but it got close to 50 mpg and with the suspension it was like being in a go cart. and it was mega cheap to maintain. if honda made a real up to date version of that car, i would have one (CRZ doesnt count because it neither gets great gas mileage or like the CRX SI has good power). I've always had more than one car at a time. my toy is my WRX. But to replace my CRX (which got t-boned in a wreck) i currently drive a FIT. Hondas are great cars for what they are. and the CRX was one of their best. on an aside, i always wanted to drop a big motor into the thing. at one time i i was considering a DART based block. but the cost to get the built motor in the car was 12k. too much for a front wheel drive car.
That was my car!!!! :banana::banana: hahaha! We are living in a small world! and I'm glad it still running!
lmao yeah me too, although it was in rough shape and wasnt running all too well when i got it. I drove it to work for the first time today..do you have any old pics of it? i wonder how much better shape it was in when you had it
awesome! nice cars man, thanks for the offer. im still undecided if i want to do anything at all to this thing other than just fixing whats wrong with it
What's with the min in that pic? I just got a 96 Civic CX for a daily as well. It came with an ITR swap so it's fun but needs some TLC. The front upper ball joints and tie-rod ends need to be replaced. Probably do that when I install the 11.1" rotors that I just ordered. The same kit will bolt to your knuckles as well.
