That’s the beauty of Honda, you can mix and match parts from different generations and models 30 years apart and make it still have that factory feel. Awesome build! I’m sure it’s a blast to drive.

Same bro. Don't get me wrong, k swaps are badass and if you have the money then fuggit, go for it. But I have a 97 Civic with a b20v in it that has a built gsr head on it and it shits and gets pretty damn good and I'm happy with it. But I would still do some weird shit to have a k swap for sure lol
it all depends what kind of power you aiming for, if i really wanna go fast i go ls vtec with pistons rods in a chassis like that and trust me no one can catch up with the right tire set up and aggressive suspension
My first and best car I ever had was an 88 CRX. I had an absolute blast owning it. Plus after I invested in an exhaust and intake a a set of tires I learned how to drive with momentum since the engine was stock. I’m sorry I got rid of it lol
Wow, what a wonderful Car ! I'm from Germany and have a black one from 1990 in VTEC-Version with 110kw in original Condition with history Registration, in the moment official costs €13000,- upwards and it's still going higher, because this is very rare !

I am literally about to do this same swap in my 88 Si. I was going to do B-series, but bang for the buck, this can't be topped! Parts are easy to find, just looks to be a lot more work, not an easy bolt in!
That’s my first car! Such a fun go kart ride. It’s such a well balanced car. Even though it’s front drive, you can snap that back around. Doesn’t oversteer badly. I miss mine.
I'm an original owner of the white and black 88 CRX . I use it daily . It still looks good and it runs like a champ . You can't beat the gas mileage !! She's 35 years old now so Im thinking about finally getting a new paint job and rims.
Ok since everyone wanna talk about money I’m literally at a lil over 20 grand on my car 1990 civic wagon I bought a K20A type R full swap off the DC5 hassport mounts Rywire mil spec skunk2 alpha headers, speed factory tucked radiator insane shaft axels, Acuity 4 way shifter hybrid racing shifter cables hybrid racing fuel rail and fuel regulator hush performance cable to hydro conversion kit still buying a few more parts I need but yea it’s expensive if your not going to be cheap about it I’m hitting my 2 year mark with the car almost done wish me luck 😂🤣🤙…………..years later……… I’m almost done
Can’t fault the K series at all! It’s got torque unlike the B series, all while still retaining great power and reliability. And 6-speed availability makes old Honda restomods worthwhile given there’s a cruising gear for the highway, not to mention the slick shift action and perfectly weighted clutch this brand is known for. I’m surprised no other manufacturer has followed suit.
Would love to setup my CRX with that S2000 cluster. K swap is a long way off for my car. Mine is stock without power steering and it’s a blast to drive
Been 20 years since I lost my CRX (someone decided to crash into the side of it) and it's been itching a lot lately. I am however an old man now (41) and I want something less noisy. I think a K24 with stock Accord mufflers would be ideal for me.
I'm the proud owner of a 89 CRX dx with a built b16 swap. I built the motor 10 years ago, back then B-swaps were still affordable and K-swaps were rather expensive in comparison. Not to mention the amount of aftermarket parts and understood tuning potential of the K motors were still poor vs what people were still doing with B-series. That said, If I were to build another EF today, it would be a K-series. Would I swap my b16 for a K? No, the b16 crx is a solid platform. I'll boost it before I swap out again.
@@nicktorres4064 it’s not fun but Hondas are on the easy side of swaps. Going through the BAR process is stressful and can get expensive if you need to go multiple times. Depends on what you swap, you’ll need the obd port to work properly, all evap and smog equipment working (cats, fuel tank, smog pump, etc). Most of the swaps here are illegal though lol
@@nicktorres4064 As Sammy put it "Most of the swaps here are illegal" I did my build while living in SoCal. It was always sketchy to bring the car out. Cops will just pull you over simply for a loud exhaust and they can just ask you to pop the hood too. Getting Reffed sucks. You have to track down so many random bs OEM parts just for inspection. Only to take the stock parts off and box em up till next smog date. Best (most difficult) thing you can do is be friends with a Smog tech and keep him happy. I moved to WA state a couple years ago, registered my 89 crx as a "collector vehicle" and now I don't need to worry that anything I do to the car will be illegal. The Plates are permanent, never have to renew stickers. No inspection, let alone smog check.
I have a 92 eg hatchback, with a k24 swap, with a k20 oil pump. 50gear. I have it to rev 8k kerp it safe. Car is gutted. Is tune on 93 Fast little car.
If it’s a street car, I’d recommend the B series, especially if you plan on lowering it. I own both a K and B swapped CRX, and the B swapped car I don’t have to worry about at all with oil pan and exhaust clearance issues like I do my K20 car
I've had my b16 crx for 10 years, it was cheaper to B-swap back then and K-series was very expensive. The amount of aftermarket parts and the understood tuning potential of the K motor has come a long way in 10 years too. That said, a simple b20 non-V would be the best bang for the buck swap. It would be the simplest to add on a turbo as well. As @billy Bob said, it all depends on what your plans and expectations are for the car. If you have nothing but time and money. K-swap and build from there. But if you have a set budget and want to just see gains, a B-series CRX is very respectable.
My first car was a rare 1990 model Honda CRX moonroof d16 twin cam, wish I still had the car my dad sold it on me for $800. And it got stripped then the rest of the car got crushed at the wreckers.😢😭 As a year ago when I last looked the cars were going for $40, 000 just for the car let alone shipping etc on top.🤬
need to see the clearance from hood and ground, bc that engine is a pretty tight fit in the CRX and im wanting to k24 swap my DA but worried about clearance
Just imported mine from Japan, a D series and looking to K swap it. Can anyone recommend any workshops in Sydney that would K swap and if anyone has gone through this process, what is the total cost of the K swap?
I came here to say this. I own a K20a type R Si CRX and a B18C Type R CRX. The B series is more enjoyable to drive on the street. I can keep the B series car lower due to not having to worry about destroying the oil pan if the K car was at the same height as my B series car. I couldn’t imagine having to deal with the taller K24 in that regard. Getting the exhaust to fit right with the swap headers that are available for them is difficult too (some point the collector at an odd angle which causes the exhaust to not fit right under the car). I also don’t care for the K trans like I do the B trans. Shift linkage feels better than the cables. I was also able to retain the AC compressor with my B setup, and I didn’t have to buy a different hood due to fitment issues for my B series car, which are getting expensive. For a dedicated race car, no doubt do a K series. For a DD, I would stick with B series in a CRX/hatch. Just my .02
I have an 88 with a B18b1. You can't beat double wishbone front suspension, lightness and simplicity. PS Who here thinks vividracing is a scam?.. I've been waiting for a cat-back for over 6 months.

hey, ive just seen your video on the honda integra type r and that there were only few that were actually legally imported to Australia. I'm just wondering, is the type s version of the integra legal to import to Australia without living in japan for a year?
Interesting project but the B-Series engine is the one for the CRX. 200 HP is plenty of power in that great chassis. 3x the power does not mean 3x the fun. K24s belong in newer Hondas ad the S2000. Good video though!
now imagine it with a pair of inline 100 mm ducted fan units (for electric RC jets), forcing the intake with 4-5 lbs of boost at whim, without any turbo spooling lag. you do pay for it at the alternator bringing battery back up to full charge, oh well! anytime you wanted more hit in 3rd 4th 5th gear, just push a button and GO.
The electric turbo gimmick peaked 15 years ago. The 4-stroke combustion engine is already a huge air pump, any fan "pressure" you are trying to build up on the intake is very minuscule to the amount of CFM the pistons already move. Maybe You can build 2-3psi in front of a closed throttle plate, but as soon as the motor is full WOT. Your fans are just in the way.
No airbag, no power steering, no traction control, narrow wheel base, weights only about 2200lbs. So safety is not an issue because it will be a quick death. Lol
