Sup guys! We get more work done on Chris's 1988 CRX Si. If you want to skip ahead to the exhaust install part, go to the 15:23 mark. Either way, enjoy and let me know what you guys think of the overall progression on his CRX. You can also watch the other 3 previous videos by skipping to the last 10 seconds of this video, all 3 links are provided and clickable on screen! Thanks peeps!!
What up Jon!! Just wanted to check in Lol. ah good ole single cam A6. Yeah everyone swears by those ebay cheapie exhausts including myself. I just switch out muffler like you did before to high end brand. Can’t beat the price on those exhausts.
@@2_2_4_3 wrong dork. I drive nothing but nice hondas. I know how to save my money and use it wisely when buying good , nice parts and not some cheap halfass crap you fools still put on cars to this day like that crappy 92.00 wraspy junk.
@@ninjafit3275 why so angry? He clearly stated it was for track use and if it gets damaged it won't cost too much to replace. Sometimes people have priorities and a family to provide for and spending thousands on a exhaust system is not #1 on the list.
For those hating on the exhaust, for $92 ship, i don't think you can beat it. sure an $$$ sounds a lot better, but he could buy another muffler and/or resonator and weld it on for less money than a quality exhaust and make it sound better. I'm a fan though, I may have to look at a similar option for my 89 Civic Si once I get it running again
Great comment! Did you see my video on my 91 Civic Si with the Skunk2 vs eBay exhaust? That was the best eBay one I've ever heard! Nobody can seem to find it anymore though.
So lucky to have you there Jon, wish I had that awesome support most of the time! Taken a few months but Im almost rust free on the chasis now! Just an electrical issue I cant figure out... Great stuff as always mate.
@@GarageBuiltHondas Hey Jon mate, yeah... fist sized rust holes in the sills and arches :( All good for now I hope! Sorted 7 big issues to clrar the engine check light and ABS/SRS errors it had...and finally the major rust, still dozens of issues to go... some confusing electrical ones :( Keep your awesome content coming mate, no friends really due to career/work comitments so your channel is a real social point for me.
...p.s.s. d16a6...crank bolt...place bolt in a hole of pulley, wrap wire around it and to LCA...heat bolt, lube...Impact... should work everytime...everything going smooth per your vids J... big up!
You guys are cool and knowledgeable. I wish I lived out there. I'm working on my 91 Tahitian green Crx. Original owner. I'll keep an eye on your videos. Thanks guys.
great job, I also have a Honda CRX coupe 1991. I also have a problem with the exhaust. Now I have a house with a garage, and I am going to try it myself. I am not as technical as you guys nice video God bless you guys
When i had my 1990 crx I did the same things you guys did minus the exhaust install. I too saw all that rust behind the water pump. I guess it's a must to replace or at least take a peek behind the water pump when you get these generation civics. Awesome video man 👍
When I first got my HF I got the same exhaust. I bought another once i got my Si and spent a weekend and some beers welding on a walker 17733 so it doesn't sound like a ricer. I love how quiet on my Si it makes my B20 swap.
I love your videos man. I picked up a 1988 crx si in June and have slowly worked on it. Now it's my daily driver dispite needing some parts. I like your videos very informative and knowledgeable.
Finally finished the video had to do something but as soon as I got done I came back SUPER THANKS to all the guys putting in work and sharing it gives me joy when I'm down nothing like some wrenching to life the spirits keep it up
BTW Jon, this channel continues to be pure EF car pron. Still one of my favorite channels on here. Ready to my own hatch up and running to rock a GBH sticker (somehow I don't think a GBH sticker would find a proper home on my 5.7 Charger!)
That exhaust is super loud compared to the yonaka! But I love the fitment on that exhaust too. Learned a lot from the beginning of the video too thanks for posting!
Garage Built Hondas of course! Your videos have helped me with my crx and past hatchback so much over the last few years. Your explanations are great which gives me confidence to work on my own car without a worry 😎
Thanks for using my clip! my girl was cool and helped haha. Another cool and helpful Video! I need to do my belt and pump soon. Also, was that a IceCream truck at 11:25? lol
Yay! I rock this exhaust on my track car too though, but mine is hacked into a center dump right in front of the gas tank. This one is loud but great for taking abuse and possibly dents.
try out vibrant exhaust parts, i used a vibrant ultra quiet resonator and streetpower oval muffler, loud when it needs to be with zero rasp, pops and cracks sometimes too, it's great. Mine's 3 inch piping and sounds great, $400 or so welded up and everything including a V-band flange in the stock muffler bolt location.
Yes don't buy cheap ebay exhaust, you're car will sound like shit, I have a skunk2 megapower r on my ep3 and it sounds amazing, with no rasp or ricey sound.
@ 19:02 - You mentioned that the timing was off by a tooth so you had to forward the cam by one tooth. Question, when you forward the cam by one tooth, did the two lines on the cam sprocket still aligned with the head?
the D16A6 uses the timing mark on the cam gear that's at 7 O'clock. it lines up with a mark on the plastic backer behind the cam gear. not the two side to side marks. im not sure if any other D's use this mark but the A6's do
Are you 100% positive? Because I've only ever used the 2 marks on the side. He was off a tooth and I saw it but wanted him to learn from it. I could tell right away when he thought it was lined up.
thehaloguy is it obvious. I have a 88 si that has 127000 miles but has been sitting a while... feel like I need to do the belt kit but it seems a bit overwhelming by watching, do you start this job by finding top dead center?
im thinking of getting one of those exhaust but using a quiet resonator, the only thing that i don't like is the 4"inch tip and is not centered the silencer, but a cutting disk and some welds it will fix it.
@@GarageBuiltHondas 9 months later the $152 is the new $92 lbs steal of a deal but $152 for what u get and that sound is well worth it if the quality is there how is it holding up after the time its been on
Do you really think this muffler will get quieter? I gotta hit redline in my '91 CRX Si all the time! I don't think anybody would appreciate that loud exhaust in my neighborhood.
I guarantee you that on the ebay exhaust the "resonator" is not actually a resonator, just straight piping. Buy a jones resonator and a thresh muffler from ebay and hack out the originals on the ebay exhaust. 100% would sound way better and still cheaper than a yonaka.
Nice, thanks dude! I know some stuff is backwards like some bike pedals. Someone was helping me replace my timing belt and an impact didn't even work hahaha don't remember what finally got it loose. Wanna be able to do it myself next time, it can seem intimidating but this vid gives me some confidence for the future :)
I'm going to try and get a full DIY done when I change mine on my CRX especially since mine still had the AC components also. *That'll* definitely help out!
@@GarageBuiltHondas well that isent really bad for around there tho bc it's not hot and cold there all the time, but it does have more miles then my wifes car and it's a 97 teg, think hers has 245 or something. But hell hers has alot of the year of hers lol, that's all but double of mine haha
Hey, weird question. I own an 88 wagon of the same body style. The question is about cup holders. How do you cope without having any cup holders? Any ideas on modding in cup-holders that doesnt look bad?
This is a decent option www.ebay.com/itm/88-91-Honda-CRX-Ash-Tray-Cup-Holder-by-Gregparts-LLC-ashtray-cupholder-cups-trim/113001730504?fits=Model%3ACRX&hash=item1a4f6d91c8:g:E6oAAOSw1nRa~zSe&vxp=mtr Otherwise you can swap in a hatch dash and use an integra center console.
@@GarageBuiltHondas it's a nice exhaust and I wanna make it work. I'll tweet with it. Like the videos man. You have great taste 👌 I've had my crx for almost 10 years now. Love love the car. Check me out on Instagram babyrex91.
lol outsiders again with the brand name ish.....stop it most brand name parts cost hundreds and give you nothing much actually a home made setup from a local shop would cost less and give the same out come or better if you over time developed a mix of parts to give you the sound and performance you need
+black nindo now this comment comes after the installation of the exhaust .....it how this car should sound ...the only way he can change the sound is to go bigger pipes
Is there any chance of messing up the timing when changing the belt or taking off the cam gear etc? Do you simply line up the 2 lines? I had this done at a shop for $225 labor (ouch) bc I hadn't done it before.
I know this an old video, and I might be wrong about this, but at 10:02 in the video it looks like the key is set sideways in the key-way for the crank pulley.
@@GarageBuiltHondas That's D series reliability for you lmao, when I got my ef sedan the pistons were in backwards along with just about everything else. Rebuilt her and she runs like a champ now haha!
@@GarageBuiltHondas the guy I got the car from daily drove it like that for 4 months haha, no idea how long it had been like that before him either. Someone had no idea how to put together an engine and/or a lot of drugs were involved in it's creation lol. I'll also add that I was told one of the previous owners put 10psi of boost through it with everything in backwards like it was when I got it, it's a D15Z1 meant for fuel economy, people are insane 🤦🏼♂️
The only gloved I like are the gorilla gloves from Home Depot because I had the same issue, you can feel most things, after seeing my fathers hands after him being a technician for 34 years it makes me wanna wear gloves
I have a 1989 Honda CRX that is my daily driver. I just finished swapping to a b20b running a pr4 ecu and it is running rich/lots of backfiring. I looked around and can't seem to find the issue.
Could be a handful of issues. What's the maintenance look like on the chassis itself? How was it running before in the previous vehicle. I ran my B20B with a PR4 for 2 years and no issues. Decent gas mileage even with my short geared trans and track days.
@@GarageBuiltHondas the previous motor that was in the car was a stock d15b2 (DPFI) that had high miles on it (300k plus). When the d15 was in there it was running pretty good besides the oil Burning and leaking out the head of the engine. After the swap i noticed it would smoke alot out of the exhaust when the dizzy was set in the middle lots of white somke appeared. Right now i have the dizzy set all the way forward. Forgot what its called but the smoke stopped and now it seems to be running alot better then before. The cassie has seen better days.
im kinda new to the car maintenance/mod scene and ive just picked up a ef wagon, and my timing belt broke what the benefits of going with an aftermarket system rather than oem?
After doing the rear disc brake conversion on my CRX and bleeding the brakes 3 times I still had a soft pedal. Does the proportioning valve need upgraded, perhaps? Another great informative video!
I'm looking to build my d15 and transmission for my crx but I can't seem to find anybody to build them. Is there a book that I can order and rebuild them myself? I plan on doing a lot of modifications to them but everyone around me does American engines. It's all brand new parts.
El CRX es muy ligero, regularmente se les monta un b serie por ser un motor potente y accesible. Sin mencionar que el CRX es uno de los hondas más queridos por la gente "hondera" y que además los CRX ya no se ven en la calle como un coche de uso común. Sin duda alguna, eligo el CRX ante el ef. Pd: tengo un crx y lo amo.
I didn’t run long but I turned it on and turned it off 4 times the first 2 times it was running weird the other 2 times I tired fixing it but I made it worse and it didn’t turn on. I didn’t run long when I did tht I just turn it on and turned it off right away
i bought this exact exhaust to chop up and put on my VG stanza. it sounds pretty awful but i always wondered what it sounds like on the car its actually made for. i guess now i know lol
Garage Built Hondas i think the main issue is the headers, i replaced the muffler in the system which was a major improvement because that muffler is literally just a giant resonator made of tin foil lol i have videos of the car on my channel if you wanna check it out.
Garage Built Hondas i have had the car for like 7 years and am attached to it, i always wanted to make it fast and for whatever stupid reason wanted to put the v6 from my z31 into it. the fact that absolutely no one on earth had ever done this swap before appealed to me as well lol its basically just a lighter, smaller maxima. no real benefits outside of that but im planning on building some turbo headers for it at some point and making it a burnout machine.
That's cool, and I love the unique factor of it. My stuff is pretty "cookie cutter" but I can't help it, I love these damn lunchboxes (I'm making fun of the shapes of them). 😁

On a d16a6 should the tensioner have a location pin on the right side

Someone had no idea how to put together an engine and/or a lot of drugs were involved in it's creation lol. I'll also add that I was told one of the previous owners put 10psi of boost through it with everything in backwards like it was when I got it, it's a D15Z1 meant for fuel economy, people are insane 🤦🏼♂️
I hate gloves ! Can’t feel a thing ! Who agrees?
Like "rubbers"? Lol
The only gloved I like are the gorilla gloves from Home Depot because I had the same issue, you can feel most things, after seeing my fathers hands after him being a technician for 34 years it makes me wanna wear gloves
Yup.
Thanks for the video tutorial.
Hope it helped!
I have a 1989 Honda CRX that is my daily driver. I just finished swapping to a b20b running a pr4 ecu and it is running rich/lots of backfiring. I looked around and can't seem to find the issue.
Could be a handful of issues. What's the maintenance look like on the chassis itself? How was it running before in the previous vehicle. I ran my B20B with a PR4 for 2 years and no issues. Decent gas mileage even with my short geared trans and track days.
@@GarageBuiltHondas the previous motor that was in the car was a stock d15b2 (DPFI) that had high miles on it (300k plus). When the d15 was in there it was running pretty good besides the oil Burning and leaking out the head of the engine. After the swap i noticed it would smoke alot out of the exhaust when the dizzy was set in the middle lots of white somke appeared. Right now i have the dizzy set all the way forward. Forgot what its called but the smoke stopped and now it seems to be running alot better then before. The cassie has seen better days.
Possibly the fuel filter, dirty or clogged injectors.
Do I have to do this same exact process if I were just replacing the cam gear only ?
Not at all. Just need to remove the cam cover, loosen the tensioner, slide off the belt and voila, cam gear access.
im kinda new to the car maintenance/mod scene and ive just picked up a ef wagon, and my timing belt broke what the benefits of going with an aftermarket system rather than oem?
Only one, price.
@@GarageBuiltHondas thanks for responding! i just realized your mentioned the reason at the very beginning of the vid lol
👍
Got same exhaust theynhold up well for what you want
Nice, thanks for the input!
looks like fun!!
Always is! Have you been wrenching?
@@GarageBuiltHondas no I've been away, I'll be back soon tho, have some stuff I need to button up on my car
Ok nice
cool...
Love the intro
I miss my CRX SI 1991 :(
Get *anutha one*! (In DJ Khaled voice)
Hahaha i know, but they are hard to find! keep going work on!
Will do man!!
Hell yea love your videos man
Thank you!
Will CRX, sedan and hatch exhaust fit our wagons ?
Unfortunately no. Different exhaust path. It'll need some modifications to fit.
What white wheels are those on the CRX? Size? Thanks

Do you use a water pump oem or aftermarket?,
I personally use OEM. He is using an aftermarket.
How have those emusa rear lca’s held up? @Garage Built Hondas
We're gonna find out.
After doing the rear disc brake conversion on my CRX and bleeding the brakes 3 times I still had a soft pedal. Does the proportioning valve need upgraded, perhaps? Another great informative video!
No it doesn't. I've been running my sedan with the stock prop valve for a few years and no issues.
Whats up bro what the proper gates timing belt to get for the d16a6 they gave me a t244rb i saw some t145 or 141 which one is for the d16a6
Who's they?
@@GarageBuiltHondas a performance shop out here in jersey I looked it up it says t145rb for the crx they gave me the t244rb belt it was to short
Go exchange it out with them.
Time for some 1320 performance B series unequal length headers to give that Subaru rumble!
Need a B series first! Lol
More smoke from the exhaust than the tires lol
Yup, 279,000 miles. The oil falling onto the header didn't help either.
I'm looking to build my d15 and transmission for my crx but I can't seem to find anybody to build them. Is there a book that I can order and rebuild them myself? I plan on doing a lot of modifications to them but everyone around me does American engines. It's all brand new parts.
Not that I'm aware of. Sorry!
Amigo, porque le gusta Honda CRX?
Porqur inviert dinero en esos motores?
Quiero comprarme uno, me gusta mucho el CRX y el EF
Los Honda crx son unos de los más chingon hondas!
No pesan nada y son bien rapido con motor de integra 👌
Y el Ef tendra las mismas caracteristicas
El CRX es muy ligero, regularmente se les monta un b serie por ser un motor potente y accesible. Sin mencionar que el CRX es uno de los hondas más queridos por la gente "hondera" y que además los CRX ya no se ven en la calle como un coche de uso común.
Sin duda alguna, eligo el CRX ante el ef.
Pd: tengo un crx y lo amo.
What happens when you start your engine but it is not timed correctly?
Off one tooth, it'll run rough like this. I'm not sure if it's off more. It probably wouldn't even start.
Is it possible to get a bent valve or a damaged piston if i started it that way ?
It's possible, did you run it long? Is it make a crazy noise?
I didn’t run long but I turned it on and turned it off 4 times the first 2 times it was running weird the other 2 times I tired fixing it but I made it worse and it didn’t turn on. I didn’t run long when I did tht I just turn it on and turned it off right away
Pull the valve cover and crank the engine by hand. See if any of the valves aren't moving.
Here in the UK I can get it on eBay for 86 pounds... But delivery from US is 252 pounds.
Ouch!
Fuck 92 bucks that's a steal
I agree!
Yonaka is awesome
He ran that crx with just city water lol
Only way to do it. Lol
Slap a small turbo in there & your set for life
Wouldn't that be the poo!?
sick man!
For sure homie!! Thanks for stopping by!
Paint job white on white would be amazing blackest tenant windows ever will be cool
That'd be nice, but I think he wants to retain the silver!
Crx with a Accord engine???
F swaps for sure. I've seen a few online. Never in person before.
The belt os blue why? I want one!!
👍
Can you link the one that’s 92 dollars please

i bought this exact exhaust to chop up and put on my VG stanza. it sounds pretty awful but i always wondered what it sounds like on the car its actually made for. i guess now i know lol
Lol, at least you didn't spend a fortune!
Garage Built Hondas i think the main issue is the headers, i replaced the muffler in the system which was a major improvement because that muffler is literally just a giant resonator made of tin foil lol i have videos of the car on my channel if you wanna check it out.
Interesting choice of vehicle. Why the stanza? Not hating at all, just curious! 😀
Garage Built Hondas i have had the car for like 7 years and am attached to it, i always wanted to make it fast and for whatever stupid reason wanted to put the v6 from my z31 into it. the fact that absolutely no one on earth had ever done this swap before appealed to me as well lol its basically just a lighter, smaller maxima. no real benefits outside of that but im planning on building some turbo headers for it at some point and making it a burnout machine.
That's cool, and I love the unique factor of it. My stuff is pretty "cookie cutter" but I can't help it, I love these damn lunchboxes (I'm making fun of the shapes of them). 😁
what size tire where on the white wheels?
205/50
@@GarageBuiltHondas thanks for reply it looks good.
