Iv got a 1989 crx witha blown engine, its a 1.5 sohc i believe, and im jsut wondering what type of engines i can put int here, what are my options to look for?
enough, it cmae stock with 105 i think, which is no where near enough, i jsut want to knwo what my options are, cause i dont have a lot of money to spend on it, lookin hopefully to get a cheap 130hp, maybe a vtec to put in there
awesome thanks a lot, cheap is what im doin for, like i said vtec preferably, and all of these will go in there with out any major modifications, like transmission matches up and ecus and everything? now all i have to do is hit up ebay see what i can find ahha, ill keep it posted how im doin...
well if you go d16 its going to be at least obd1 and you will need to get a conversion harness(correct me if im wrong), or you can do it yourself(if you can follow instructions well they have guides online) and youll need to wire up the vtec since you dont have it on your car originally, but you should be able to use your stocks axles, mounts, tranny if you get a d series. another option you can do is get a b16a1 obdo(160 hp stock dohc) but u still have to connect vtec wiring and get new mounts, axles, linkage, and a few odds and ends. im leaning towards the b16 right now unless i can find a cheap d16.
sweet, ill definately look into that, but what bout the year models and other stuff liek that, like what if it isnt a 89 or it doesnt say crx on it, cause a lot im seeing only say lik 99 and up civic or 95 up civic...does that make a difference, as u can probably tell, this is my first civic, hell everything else iv had is a ford sooo, yea thanks
