Had the choice between getting a new 04 GLI Jetta or rebuilding an old CRX and now i've been having my 88 HF CRX for about 2 months now as a daily driver. I bought it with a d16a1 /w matching tranny for about 900 bucks. After about a month i have already changed out both lower ball joints, replace mounts with filled ones, rotors/pads, front brake lines,4 tires (falken ziex-512) and cleaned the ---- out of the interior (took days) with the little time i have (working 40hours).

Since i want the entire car to feel like a new car i am going to dynamat the entire car (i mean entire) and redo the entire suspension over by
-Replacing all the rubber bushings with polyurethane counterparts
-Replacing the strut assemblies with new pillow ball adjustable style
-Upgrade to DA front rotor/hubs and replace the Brake Booster/Master Cylinder assembly with the larger prelude setup


My question to you guys is what suspension combination do you guys recommend for a comfortable (like stock) ride but an upgrade from a performance viewpoint (i drive very aggresively)?
Also i heard from a buddy at work that dynamat can be substituted with a much cheaper alternative (12.47 Vs. 59.95 for 15sq ft) called peel and seal http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?actio...page=none&bc=c
Anyone else heard of this?


Turbo to be put in soon, but i preffer to improve my cars overall feel. For now we can all stare at Vida Guerra's sweet ***

now that's a nice ***, and a nice way to finish a post with a question in it.

im not sure if it would fit, but maybe you could try DA suspension. i've heard of people with EG/EK's putting in DC2 suspension in, for that stock height and comfort with a little more sport too it

definately good that ur upgrading the master cylinder. i know a guy with EF hatch with just the front brakes/rotors with stock mc.. he has to downshift more than he steps on the brake pedal to stop, and about twice as early as my grandma brakes

When you're broke you got to do what you gotta do . I've been looking long and hard at the TEIN SS Coilvover setup nice price for a shitload of adjustability with pillow ball mounts .

that's an oxymoron. tein's are nice, but expensive as ----. get some decent springs with moderate drop and adjustable shocks, so u can make em soft for more comfort

I was in the situation where I was broke as ---- and am not now, and am now able to afford more quality products. Which is why i am looking at that tein setup.
