In Topic: Need Some Front Da Brakes
14 October 2005 - 02:51 AM
Which DA? DA1 and DA3, if I remember correctly, are 86-9 Integras, and their brakes bolt onto 84-7 Civic/CRX's. DA8 and DA9 (again, I may be off on the numbers) are 90-93 Integras, and their brakes are 10.3" bits that won't work on the smaller hub/knuckles.

It is $65 here in California plus $51 to register the car for a total of $116.

Wow, that's out of control. Here in AZ, I spent $27 for an every-other-year emissions inspection (dyno/sniffer, and a fairly weak visual) plus $15/year to register my '87 DX.

In Topic: 1g/3g Brake Conversions

Sell the rear trailing arms, complete with the brake stuff (hoses & ebrake cables included), to someone with an 88-00 Civic. They're more or less useless to a 1G CRX owner, but there's a slight track increase with the DA trailing arms that makes them good for the later cars.
The front brakes won't bolt on. They also don't fit under any 13" or some 14" wheels (stock 86-7 CRX Si wheels won't fit), and you'll need an adapter of some sort to mount the calipers. I've heard that Fastbrakes makes a bracket to mount the 10.2" caliper on a 9.5 or 8.9" hub (like you'll find on a 1G), but it's not on their web site.
The independent rear suspension definitely won't work. It requires a whole bunch of mounting points that you won't find on a 1G chassis- there are 4 various arms & links connecting the trailing arm to the body.

In Topic: Short Connectors On Wire Harness
11 August 2005 - 02:33 AM
A few wires (4?) have to be extended/moved when swapping a D16A1 into an 86-7 CRX Si- the emissions box ends up on the firewall, instead of over on the driver's side. I ended up building a jumper harness, since I was starting with a parts CRX with the engine swap already in it. Of course, I could be totally off base, since it's been about 2 years since I put together an EFI swap .
