The black one does look nice in the pics. HF's didn't come with an electric fuel pump, so something is not stock.

I'm 99 percent sure this is my old car. Its really a Dx and it has a bunch of stuff done to it. No cat side exit exhaust. 5speed si trans. Wrecked on the passenger side. I painted this car in my front yard. Has msd coil. LOL this car has been passed around like a 2 dollar whore around redpepper. Most of the parts were done by other members. I'd buy it back but no money.

Don't tell him you know where the car came from.

It is 100% your old car. I was so sad when I found out it had a Si transmission... he said mpg is 20-25 sad.gif I was willing to trade my perfect dc integra +750 cash on his side but then I found out it got low mpg sad.gif

The car also has an si head, broken fan, unmatched seats (not bolted in right), poor wiring (speaker wire lol). I did none of this. I think you could get more mpgs out of it if you wanted. It runs a little rich too.

I used BMW jet black 2. Did a damn good job for doing it outside.

I wish I could get those ls meshies back.

Well I went and saw this CRX today... wow.. I can't believe how much I really miss these little cars until I actually got behind the wheel of this little car. It has all kinds of problems... I'll try to make a short list...



damage to the rear passenger panel above the plastics
missing header panel
poor mounted driver seat



shift linkage is horrible
oil leaks from valve cover, oil pan
A lot of oil leaking from the crank seal, the side of the engine is covered in fresh oil, timing belt soaked in oil.
distributor cap zip tied on
runs rich
has a ticking valve noise from the #4 cylinder
all of the heater hose are toast


I offered my good condition DC hatch for this crx with 1400 on his side.. I'm really reluctant to drive this CRX for long without repairing it up to par. It has a Si head and a Si transmission which is not my prefered choice but its always fixable. What do you guys think?

I have the quarter panel that you can have. Or maybe I gave it to him already not sure.
I also have a distributor, couple heater hoses, and a cvcc head if you want.

I think Zak has an extra crx linkage. Not sure what's wrong with the one that's on it.
I wonder what he did to the header panel? I repaired it awhile back.
Also check the front end. I believe it has damage. Not sure if you caught it.

Yeah I forgot it did have a header panel, it looked like it had been repaired... im just so used to seeing them missing a header panel LOL. I would love to have it back to CVCC status... and a hf/dx tranny. He said he might have found a buyer that wants it for a daily for 1k, i doubt the guy will care if the car dies... just another lost to LKQ sad.gif
