Building my '91 HF CRX: Part 4

As much as I want to finish painting the car, there's not much point if I can't make it drive, so it's time to get an engine into this car and make sure I can get it running and driving again.

looking really good! I love how you mixed some Si bits into it as well. loving the seats in there. and the exhaust is a nice touch. Great work!! Can't wait for a proper drive on it.

[@RX7RM]

Thanks man. Mostly working with what I've got and trying to make things match, but there are some Si bits I just prefer to HF.

I'm surprised you only have 390 subscribers. The content I've seen warrants more.

[@RX7RM]

I appreciate that. I normally don't upload very often because I can't make the content that fast so TH-cam probably doesn't recommend my channel that much. It will grow over time though.

i don’t think i mentioned it when we talked about it but my 45mpg run was on the super light civic hx wheels

[@RX7RM]

Well, that's good to know. I'm sure the HF wheels will be similar. I used to get around 36-38 with my first CRX, which had an SI engine, DX trans, and some Motegi wheels, so I'm sure it will be better than that at least. Lol

I will bet you get 50mpg with that setup. I have an 89 si. I built a a6 bottom end with a d16y8 vtec head, comp cams Stage 2 cam 60mm gsr throttlebody ported tobthe y8 intake manifold with the stock crx si tranny and I get 37mpg consistently and have seen 43mpg with that setup. I'm positive it would get 50mpg with a taller 5th gear. That setup dynoed 135hp 118tq at 4500 feet above sea level.

I like the way your crx it's looking. Im womdering where did you get those b.calipers and b.lines- calipers look so sweet!!

[@RX7RM]

Thanks. I got the left caliper and all the brake hoses from Rock Auto. The right caliper was out of stock everywhere, so I actually had to rebuild that one myself, but the rebuild kit still came from Rock Auto and I painted both calipers with some VHT caliper paint.
