CR-X drag co efficient

[xj0hnx]

Found this, maybe someone wants to know it.

CR-X
----------------------------
Aerodynamic drag factor
CD=0.30
Lift coefficient
CL=0.10
Yawing moment factor
(At the time of yaw angle 6°)
CYM=0.03

what about a 93 240 coupe

 

[sportlinecrx]

what is yawing moment factor??? do you have the skidpad number for the 88-91 crx si's??

an interesting note...the crx hf's had a slightly lower CD (.29) and i think it is because they didnt come with a passenger side mirror. no mirrors=mad aerodynamics boost!

Drop the mirror, add cameras.

John, I could've sworn the CRX drag coefficient was something like 0.34.

i double-checked at quickhonda.net. for the 1990 crx's its:

DX/SI: .30
HF: .29

I got that from Honda Japans website while I was just putting around. I couldn't find any others, if I do I'll post them. There is a lot of info there if you take the time to rummage through it all. I had to run the site through a translator, some of it comes out kind of funny.

wow, I just was searching around since i looked at this topic. The insight is .25 I can't wait to see a swap in one of those.

Wow. I guess it really is that low. Maybe I should keep my CRX instead of parting it out...

by the way...i havent gotten the intake yet. guess the mail is slow cause of the xmas rush.
