Just picked up an 87 CRX Si

**amped4life33** · 05-18-2009, 02:27 PM

Needs some work, but hey i got it for 800 bucks...

Im gonna fix the side skirts and the fender thats got a hole in it..and probably repaint it..and im gonna fix the interrior so i can get rid of the extremely gay flowery seat covers...its mostly just a daily driver, but i dont mind droppin a few bucks into it just to clean it up...anyway this is what it looks like right now..

**Revmaynard** · 05-18-2009, 02:33 PM

Seems clean for the money. Recently painted?

**DeeAOne** · 05-18-2009, 02:33 PM

**92mr2T** · 05-18-2009, 02:36 PM

**WTF?** · 05-18-2009, 04:38 PM

**93Altima** · 05-18-2009, 04:40 PM

I had a blue one, fun as hell. Nice pick up. And you talked him to letting it go cheaper? Good job lol.

Pm me if you have any questions about hondas, I don't know everything, I know enough haha. *Cocky voice* lol.

**Nerdsrock22** · 05-18-2009, 06:18 PM

I'm getting one soon as well!

You looking at any motor swaps?

**BITCHING** · 05-18-2009, 06:32 PM

**imports** · 05-18-2009, 06:34 PM

not bad for $800 im pretty sure you can slap in a EF b16 on it.

Put a b16 or a LS in it and gut the interior and you have a track car.

1950 LBS stock. You could easily be 1600 LBS at 145ish WHP.

**okra1981** · 05-18-2009, 06:49 PM

I was looking at this car, but I can't afford anything with the project outside my apartment right now. I'm jealous that you got this one.

Full interior, B16A swap = 13's all day long. That's before putting more mods into it.

Hell yeah man. I/H/E and gut it. Possibly high 12's, really low 13s.

**DEL_SLOFTW** · 05-18-2009, 08:12 PM

Haha i didnt think you swung for the four cylinders?
Like it man cant wait to see the finished project

**JEY$JDM** · 05-18-2009, 08:22 PM

hell yes... rep foe Si rex!!!! nice buy

**amped4life33** · 05-19-2009, 01:21 AM

Thanks guys...I dont know a whole lot about hondas, and by that i mean i know literally nothing about hondas, but i needed somethin to keep from drivin the mustang around all the time. I would like to clean up the exterior first, fix the body imperfections, and get my buddy to paint it. Im about to put some money into the mustang so i dont wanna spend a lot on this right away. Eventually though, i would like to do something big with this car. Anyone here who knows me personally will vouch for me, i dont halfway do anything, and i always roll in style, so sooner or later ill go big on this. I was actually thinkin about an H22, ive seen a couple of really quick H22 CRX's. I also have heard that a LS Vtec would be a nice fit, but like i said i dont know much about hondas and im going to have to study into it and sort of find out which direction i wanna go. Thanks for the input to everyone.

**03RCode** · 05-19-2009, 01:26 AM

Nice tow rig.

**Dwisforme05** · 05-19-2009, 01:29 AM

hey i know a guy who paints...lol

definatly funny seeing you drive a honda. slam dat bish son

**msanch24** · 05-19-2009, 02:48 AM

h22 sounds like a splendid idea

**six7teen** · 05-19-2009, 02:50 AM

looks good man!! reps comin your way!!

**FasTech** · 05-19-2009, 08:53 AM

Glad you got it cheaper than what you told us in the previous thread. Doesn't seem too bad. It needs a few things from what I see in the pic's but it looks to be pretty clean. Have fun with it, man.

Brian* · 05-19-2009, 08:56 AM

Nice DD, well except for the hole in the fender.. But nice for the price*

**rbwdriven** · 05-19-2009, 11:30 AM

www.redpepperracing.com

specialize in that generation crx's.

I had a 87 si, I put a bigger throttlebody and a free flowing exhaust on it and it brought the car to life.

They are not too hard to work on. Only real engine issue is the spark plugs and wires so close to the radiator.

**Dev** · 05-19-2009, 11:57 AM

bout time you came over to the dark side

nice buy. im tryin to get one myself, but i gotta come up with the money first, and if i get it before you get new interior ill sell you the interior out of it for a good price.

the interior is perfect, i have pics so just hit me up in town one night.

**dabuilding** · 05-19-2009, 12:19 PM

great car for the money man reps for the find

**amped4life33** · 05-20-2009, 02:09 PM

thanks guys...ill let yall know when i fix it up a little more...

be sure and look for the Mustang at the next V Meet or out at the track...because thats the reason i bought a DD to begin with haha

**Z0_o6** · 05-20-2009, 03:30 PM

you won't be able to put a H22 swap in that model CRX without considerable fabrication. go with a B18C and it will be plenty quick.

**DC2NR** · 05-20-2009, 03:44 PM

Just get a boat for it and you're good to go.

**Dwisforme05** · 05-20-2009, 05:46 PM

hes got a jetski on a trailer lol.

**4DrTeg** · 05-20-2009, 05:51 PM

looks good decent for what you paid for

**Elbow** · 05-20-2009, 07:46 PM

Nice, I use to have a 87 CRX, gotta love the plastic body pieces.

**MkMugen** · 05-20-2009, 07:48 PM

**89preludesi** · 05-21-2009, 02:22 PM
