Wow! I can't believe you swapped to AWD. How'd you get 17th, wouldn't the del sol even with AWD be pretty absurdly light compared to the subies? Was this a very long/sweeping/high speed autocross? I've only been able to attend to one and my AWD vehicle is out of commission for now and...

Wow, that's crazy. I couldn't find too many sources but I get the main idea of stratified charge. I went out and put a spark plug in and was suprised I couldn't see it, so I guess that protrudes into a cavity and I think that large 'spark plug' looking hole in the head and that small hole are...

I want to try Somender's Grooves out on my DX head, for fun and because the head is already off and well why not because if I grenade the drivetrain it's an excuse to look for a D16A1 and transmission. Anyway what's involved is adding grooves like this...

Well either way it's claimed, let me know if it falls through. I'd offer my truck but you're in the opposite direction. I don't know your plans for it, but if you ever decide to part it or change the drivetrain let me know, I've been watching for an HF trans (and looking for a parts car for...

I love the 4g63 and there's nothing wrong with putting it into a honda. If it mounts up and you have axles made it doesn't sound super difficult. Wiring won't be too bad, as was said just cut up a DSM harness for pure engine management and feed into the Honda harness as you have to. Doesn't...

Celerity: So your car was a first gen Si, right? Is that the same block and probably same stuff as mine? How much did you calculate your compression to be at .060" milled and do you think it'd still run fine on 87 if it were carbed instead of FI? I'm just trying to decide how much I should...

So did you get it, is it all gone? I wish I saw this earlier, sounds pretty close for $100 full of parts.

Yeah, it's in the basement right now, so it's pretty ok. I love how light it is, very easy to roll into the basement (still not sure how I'll get it out :p). The only things I'm hung up on are how to remove the carb and how to verify the autoinjection of 2cycle oil is still working. The tank...

Yes, I am a loser, I had no exhaust and looking around (I looked for months) the best price I could find to replace what I lost was like $100, which I just couldn't put into a nonrunning POS, so I had a cherry bomb laying around and figured.... that's pretty much straight through with some sound...

Yeah, motorcycles are awesome. I told myself though, if I ever start getting really comfortable with them and start modding and thinking about tracking riding and etc (like I already do with my cars) that I would stop. Because... unlike with my cars, it seems much easier to get in over your...

Nice MR2, I love the supercharged first gens. You seem to find very clean examples of things. I bet your GPZ is pretty too. I really miss my 1st gen MR2 but I really didn't have time for it and the body was far too rusty, someday I'll get a clean example of one. And I wish I could get my...

Wow sweet, I'll look up your thread. That's a lot to mill off, do you know how close the water jacket is? I don't want to cut into it. Sounds like it's quite far away.

really shaving only 0.060" you think you've raised the compression that much? Or did you deck the block too? I thought you said it was running on 87 at .060, that can't be true at 14:1 compression, that's crazy. I only want a little bit, like 10-11:1. Do you have measurements on the cc...

Sweet! Yes I'm new to the board and haven't caught up on active projects, etc yet. As for parts available cheap, I've only been looking for a week or so. I don't mind the wiring stuff for EFI, I'm pretty good with that, I just didn't want to deal with the gas tank, fuel pump and fuel line for...

What year DX and what's the 4spd out of? I thought all the manuals in the CRX were 5spd, is it from a same gen civic or is it automatic? Oh and are they down in Maryland?

Ok, I've decided that I really want to drive the car and can't hold out for a cheap EFI engine and I really don't want to deal with converting the fuel system at this time. So I'm still going to look for a manual tranny, but want to rebuild my D15A2 ('87 DX). It pretty much just needs the...

So that's really depressing that stuff isn't compatible with 2nd gen/4th gen stuff. There are many more engine options available to that generation including the VX engine (D15Z1 ?). So even though nothing is compatible between the two drivelines, how far off is a complete 2nd gen driveline...

I've been researching for a week, as many forums as I could find and gathering as many bits of info as I could find. I was really hoping someone had a faq or tranny list and it was just not easily found. jlicrx, thanks for the info, that is basically what I had found so far just didn't have...

Just as the title says, I haven't seen a list (or even a partial list) or what exactly will fit directly, easily or at all and where it came from. I'm very new, I just bought an '87 CRX DX automatic, the front end is completely apart and ready for engine swap and I really want to get a manual...

As I says. I just found a very clean 1st gen DX automatic. The thing is already prepped for a swap and I hate automatics and would prefer EFI. The guy I bought it from was planning for going for power and performance, I'm going the opposite, I want 50+MPG. So I want an HF tranny and would...
