What motor?
 
I plan on getting 1990 crx hf. I want a motor with low miles. Which year motor should I look for? I want one with low miles and easier too swap and it has too be a d-series. I know the 88-91's would work but hard too find low mileage. So should I be looking for 92-95 d series? Also Im goin too turbo this motor with injectors and afc hack so would want non vtec. And the 92-95 would that require motor mounts?

if I were you i'd get the CRX Si. (90 or 91).

the hf isnt just a lower hp car. its got no sunroof, no ac, ugly blue interior, smaller brakes, smaller knucles/spindles.

easier motor. Id say a d16y8 w/ a afc and obd0 intake manifold w/ dizzy. d16a6 ecu.

I'd suggest swapping to a 2.4 LD9, an ecotec or an older 2.3 HO motor.

Come on you know you want a Jbody engine in your honDAH ;)

HF is one of the lightest honda ever made! Im goin for weight. Im getting brake swap from ls integra and putting on hf. With hf I'll have the lightness of car and lightness of d series motor and then boost it. Where can I find lsd for d16?

through in a zc or a b18a. wont be too much and you get a better platform to start off of. or to ease things more, try finding a decent low milege d16a6 motor from the si's and then turbo that bitch! trust me, it'll run! ;)

I want too stay single cam run this motor on stock pistons and rods learn about turbo and then buy another D series motor for 300$. Motors are only 300$ so if it blows im not as mad as ls 1800$. Im trying too get this crx too run 13's. I just want a clean quick car. I just want this car clean quick and able too beat mustang gt's. Would I need motor mounts for any certain year engines?

88 are the lightest 4g cars.

88 hf is the lightest hf
88 si is the lightest si

mostly because of seatbelt locations.
