Noob Questions
Hi every one I am kind of a noob so plz don't burn me too bad. Well I like CRXes, but i don't know too much about thier speed (any trim but I hope to get an Si). What is thier stock speed? On average how fast does it go with a b16a engine swap with no forced induction. How hard is it to put a back seat in it, I want to fit at least 4 people in my car. I am sorry i m a total noob but i gotta learn some how? Thanks for any help.

Re:Noob Questions
if you can get a stock crx over 100 mph you'll be doing pretty good.
as for passengers, they SLOW YOU DOWN. they don't pay gas, and imo, all you need room for is one woman riding shotgun and make the other ******* walk

Hey once i took my '89 hatch SI up to about 130ish, and I am pretty sure you don't want to go any faster in a CRX, because at that speed stearing and everything else starts to wobble and I'd say it would be dangerous to go any faster... so don't OR DO AND DIE... LOL

Re:Noob Questions
i can cruise at 110 without a care in the world (except cops) if i want to. as for at least 4 people in the rex... i wouldnt count on it. if your concerned for passengers, get a hatch or a coupe or something.
I agree with the chick in the passenger seat 2!

Re:Noob Questions
if you can't afford both at once, go for the turbo instead of the swap. you'll be faster with a turbo crx than you would with a b16 swap NA. plus you can piece the kit together for cheap. check the faq at homemadeturbo.com.

1st... REXes rock!
2nd... REXes with backseat=Gay (even if it's JDM!)
3rd... 1989 Japanese Honda Ad had B16 CRX stats. It was Japanese and the only thing I could understand was this:
0-100 km/h = 6.58 sec (0-60mph)
0-400 metre = 14.12 sec @ 145km/h (1/4 mile @ 90mph)
218km/h = 135mph (Top Speed? I cant read Japanese!)
If you need backseat go get an EF Civic Si H/B
