Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

i hear they may bring the rex back but what i think it wll be is a fit with a k20a2 stuffed in it

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

they cant really bring the rex back anything that low couldn't pass the new side impact crash test standards for suv's that make all of the new cars look completley retarded.

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

honestly, i hope they never try to make another crx or anything like it, new cars look gay :7 ef's own

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

I think Hasport makes a mount kit for some of those Honda engines.

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Au contraire, there is no CRX like the 1G.

:y

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Torsion bars for life or what :D

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Correction, torsion bars + panhard rod = bleeding edge suspension technology. hahahah
In other words, its on par w/ your average foxbody. >:D

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Might as well make it rwd.

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

it's been done... There were penty of GT4 and GT5 RWD 1g CRX's and 3g civics back in the day, but they tossed the panhard bar and usually went with a mumford link.

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

IRON BLOCK lovin yo. 2.5 bar? that must have been done on benzine and xylene or some other kind of rocket fuel/paint stripper

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Toulene ftw ;)

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Rocket fuel is typically monopropellants, which paint strippers or anything mentioned so far are not.

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Yeah thats the one i forgot, i knew there was somthing... At least the compression is pump gas doable lol

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

just curious, has anyone ever seen an ef sedan converted to a jdm SiR sedan? i seen an SiR sedan on passwordjdm.com.

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

JDM= JUST DONT MATTER

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

JDM= Japanese Dicks are Miniscule

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Back when I was a honda guy I had a ---- load of pix. You know before the Miata the 3g/1g Civic CRX was the winningest car in the SCCA. Good luck finding pix since it's old 80's ----. Most were setup with mumford links so you're better off searching for mumford link info and stumbeling across the pix you want. It's really hard finding info on this stuff since setting up something like a mumford is expensive and you could've just got a miata by then. I saw a 1g CRX RWD with a 12a and a FB rearend latterally supported by a mumford and for aft with 3 link sus. ---- pulled like 1.4g's on 9" hoosiers.

Taken out of context like this some people could mistake you for a homo.

Thanks for the $0.02, btw. ;)

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

so why do some of those race engines have the throttle body on the turbo? i noticed that before lookin at some bmw race motors

sick ----

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

Most of the new F1 engines have it on the intake manifold. It is used to spool the turbo faster and to close the pop-off.

Pop-off valves are handed out to every team before the race by F1 officials. They are set to open at a certain psi. They don't close as fast as they should, so they use that throttle to SLAM them shut with engine vacuum.

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

1st gen CRX is lighter, i'll give you that

Re: When Honda ruled the world
 

I wasn't thinking light when I said that. They are easy to work on, and handle best.
