Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

Got a later model D handy? See how the 87 mounts fit on the newer D.

Alright thanx! O0

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

You can use the teg mounts from a 89 teg, with the trans and half shaft. If its a si turning it to obd1 is cake.

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

ya thats the easy way and the old 1st gen teg transmissions is very nice. You also need the front brakes/suspension from the teg has well for the axle splines


I believe rywire has a wiring kit for the car



If its carbed you got alot of work ahead of way and finiding a 1st gen crx/civic si to swap


gas tank/lines/pump
wiring/ecu/cluster

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

it is an si model and fuel injected. i just dont want o dump a lot of money into this car since im doing it to my 93 hatch.

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

boost the stock motor then those little 12 valve motors are fun

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

yea finally got around to go pick it up and the fuckhead cut the harness at the firewall. so i need to talk to him about what he has and seeing if i can repair it.. idk ----.. the body is so clean tho...

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

I had a first gen rex a long time ago. The body was super clean, but under the car was super rusted out :P. It was so bad the the lower control arms where about to full out, I ended up having to junk it :'(.

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

this one was sitting in a shed for like 7 years before this kid got it and fucked it up.. :( i still want it just to see if i cant fiddle with it on the side.

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

i agree with the guy that said z6+14b, and first gens are light as heel strip the bitch and you will deffenitly own n00bs

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

who sells mounts or do the gen one bolt on a z6?

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

Word.. by the time he fights the OBD1 conversion, mounts, axles, new motor etc.. he'd be money ahead going w/ a small block chevy

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

Not really. For mounts you use th 89 teg ones. BTW wiring is pre obd 0, but can be made into obd 0, then a jumper to obd 1.

Re: 1987 crx engine options! d series
 

d16a1 ftw...

if you get the second gen d16a1 with the black valve cover than you'll have to convert to electronic advance, because the stock si uses vacuum advanced distributers. so look for an old integra with a brown top vac advance for a direct bolt in with integra transmission and rear mounts. i think, don't remember too well, but the driver side mount should be stock.

they boost well, and they are the least painfull. for axles all you need is the integra inners, and you can make hybrid axles.

i put in headers, and waaaaaaaaah, then i put on the turbo kid and ------ hellllll :y
