I'm looking to see if anyone has a spreadsheet that has dimensions for a few civics. I really just want to know how long your typical 89-91 CRX is, and how wide it is. Same for the 89-91 Civic or even the 92-95 or whatever year they went to. Thanks, Scott I searched but found nada.

Is it possible to create a carbon fiber fender your self? Like purchase some carbon fiber sheets, epoxy and any sort of other tools & materials you would need to produce a part. Maybe foam to make a shape to lay the fiber in to epoxy and cure it? Has anyone ever tried this, or are there even...

My stero hasn't worked in my VW since probably 2 weeks after I bought it. (I know I know, its not a Honda, but I still <3 Hondas and my exRex). Anyway, I have a crappy Sony head unit, which every review I've read on it says it sucks and dont buy it, but this is my problem. When I turn on the car...

This is just something that popped into my mind earlier today (I'm sure someone else has thought about it). So what do you get with down force, better handling at high speeds, better traction, better stopping distances and lower MPG. That's what I was thinking about, MPG (miles per gallon.. duh...

I'm in the market to buy a EF9 hatch ( if i remember the chasis code correctly ) or a 1988-91 rex. I previously had a 89 rex but the hatch is a tad bit more practical for a daily driver (2.5 more seats and room to spare). The main thing that I am wondering about is handling. For those of you...

What other kinds of cars do people put Honda engines into? :P I'm looking into buying a Pointiac Fiero or a Lotus Esprit (1st gen.. S1?) and if a swap is feasible, getting into it. I like those cars but they could use the greater power and reliability of a Honda engine. I'm pretty sure it...

I am planning on buying a circa 91 hatch or CRX in a few months and I have a question. First of all, I have always been a fan of the DeLorean and its bare metal look. My question is, if I took a hatch etc. and sanded it down to the metal, polished it, or whatever I wanted to do with it, could I...

At my last local employment facility one of my co-workers had a EF Hatch with a B18b in it. When I took my first look at it I said, "You have a stock exhaust?" and in fact it was, BUT he told me that he had cut 'slots' in it to act like a nice expensive exhaust kit, it was pretty loud, but not...

I'm looking at a 1992 Integra LS Hatchback for sale, its going for $3950 off the bat with 146k miles, original engine all stock interior, exterior and mechanical. New front axles & cv joints/boots, new front brake rotors, new radiator. Engine has no blow by tranny is in good condition, shifts...

Last time i was at Home Depot or Lowes.. forget which, I saw a rack of lawn mower batteries. I took a look at them and saw that they were 12.6v 500 CCA batteries. Wait.. my CRX had a 12.6v 500 CCA battery... but this one was 4 times smaller, $19.99 and weighed only a fraction of a full size car...

My uncle and I got to talking last month about cars and what not and he started telling me about the ol' days when he and his pals were causin trouble with their Cutlass 442s and GTOs back in the 70s (and flipping their Ford Pinto :P ) . He told me that what they used to do is coil up a fuel...

I was browsing the auto trader ads for a new civvy and I came across a Civic hatchback that says it has a 4 speed manual transmission. I've never heard of this before, could it possibly be a typo or are there actually 4 speed manual civics? If I swap the engine & transmission (lets say B16A 5...

I have another question about identifying exactly what youre looking at. I am in the market for a new car and I might be going to look at a 91 Civic DX Hatch tomorrow. The add says that the car has a JDM Front end with a 'new' GSR motor blah blah blah etc. So what I would like to know is, how...

**SOLD!** Moderators, feel free to delete.

I am in the market to purchase a new hybrid, I preferably would like to buy a CRX (1988-1991) with a B16 or B18 swap in it but I don't know much about the B18. I am going to go look at a 91 CRX with a "B18 DOHC VTEC engine" in it (as the seller has on his add). I know there are several different...

Ok so I did a compression test a few days ago and these were my results. Cylinder #4: 80 PSI A lot of black oily soot on spark plugs. Cylinder #3: 65 PSI A lot of black oily soot on spark plugs. Cylinder #2: 150 PSI Normal looking plugs Cylinder #1: 190 PSI Normal looking plugs I'm...

I have a pretty nice subwoofer setup in my 89 CRX DX (i think so) but lately my "6 Channel Electronic Crossover" blew a diode and I cannot find out what kind it is (previous owner didn't know squat about wiring). The controller says "Precision Audio Hot Shots 6 Channel Electronic Crossover"...

I always knew something was up with my piston, especially when i saw black oil inside of the exhaust port (when I removed the headers). But now I noticed that if I unplug the spark plug wire to that cylinder there is NO change in engine sound or speed (uh-oh). My ECU never gave me any codes as...

I found a buyer for my B16A CRX but now I think I'm really screwed on all of the paper work. Someone told me that all you 'need' to sell is the pink slip/title to get rid of it. But I hear the law says that you need to have it smogged up and all, but the problem is, my check engine light is on...

I would like to know what I should do with my blow by tube which is supposed to connect to my cold air intake. I want to take off the long aluminum tube and mount the air filter directly onto the manifold, eliminating all aluminum tubing. Whats to be done with the blow by gas tube? Thanks, Scott
