Ok so I have had a ton of cars since my last 88 CRX. Well some were nice and some were fun, but nothing was like my good old REX.
Anyways, before I get all sentimental on everyone, I just bought another CRX today. Here are the specs: 91 CRX - D16a6 Swapped motor I/H/E/ Drilled & Slotted Rotors Coilovers Stage 2 Clutch Flywheel and Underdrive My question is this. I dont want to swap the motor yet. I prefer to beat on it as the SOHC that it is. So I will be doing the Z6 Mini-me head swap. Has anyone ever done this? If so what type of computer, VTECH Controller, Fuel Pressure Regulator, etc have you used successfully? My last CRX was a ZC with all the mentioned above and a modded Tranny (Final drive Swap). I really loved the balls this car had. Can I get pretty close to this with the setup I mention above? Thanks... -------------------- |

When you do your swap are you gonna stay obd0? If you plan on doing a obd1 conversion, I say buy the stuff now n use a p28 to run the a6/z6...

I agree OBD0 is junk...Convert up to OBD1 and save yourself the nightmare. my opinion on the setup, depends on tuning really.

Yeah i seems the way to go is the p28.
Any other ideas on mods I should do? Maybe some rods, pistons, and slap a turbo on that SOHC? -------------------- |

If you're gonna go that route, I say there is only one piston to put in a stock sleeve d. ycp vitara's. This guy is probably the most reputable seller of these slugs...
http://www.fjdistributors.com/ Since it's an a6 you may want to look into his long rod setup too... http://fjdistributors.com/product_info.php...products_id=285 here's a video of the current record holder with these pistons: http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Speedfa...SOHC_124649.htm oh and he's going for 9's n 140+ traps with pistons that are $125w/rings: http://www.onecamonly.com/turbo/2735-speed...-d16-build.html Idk if I'd say obd0 is junk, this car is obd0: http://www.vimeo.com/2033458 I will agree that obd1 is far superior though... |

Well I appreciate all the help but the A**hole decided to sell it to someone else when I went to go pick it up. Really awesome.
So if anyone knows of a nice Hatch/CRX/Civic for around $1500-2000 let me know. Thx. -------------------- |
