1. Had kids
2. Transmission blew up
3. Don't have anymore time off work to leave that Friday before
4. Need a passport now
5. My wife doesn't like riding in the CR-X anymore, too rough a ride, LOL.

I went to the one in 2002 or 2003, had a good time. Saw the Falls at night, went gambling at the casino, went to some tourist traps, had fun. I loved Canada. Maybe one day in the future I'll go back. I hope.....


i didnt realize you went. is this your car from n10?

#495076 Cr-z Pricing And On-sale Date Annouced

QUOTE (1stgenhybridCR-X @ Jun 30 2010, 10:07 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
The the CR-Z looks sweet from the front, the rear/back looks really ugly- like an honda insight so that messes up the whole design, this car is not anywhere close to a hybrid by mpg standards today, and it weighs too much, unless you are willing to waste $25-30 G's to buy it and swap in a k20, and modify the rear, then you will have something to be proud of IMO, that was the decision i made from fixing up my 86 crx, why should i buy this new cr-z when my crx will always have more potential to run people off the track


the CR-Z seems to be holding its own on the track. So it's a pretty good contender and people usually like the rear of the car better than the front...seems like you're the odd man out... tongue.gif

Yes the black car which I bought almost 10 years ago to the day was used sort of as a parts car.
basically everything that wasn't being used on the red car was put on the black car and all the good
bits from the black car went onto the red car.
in the end I had two complete running cars.
The Black car then was sold to a good friend in Halifax.


gotcha. man i wanted that black car...

#491868 Importing

I think the Mugen CR-X was imported by N1 Concepts. You would also want to try Japan yahoo if you can find a seller to deal with you and find a way to get it to a US Port for you to pick up. If I had to import one, here in MD after 20 years cars don't need to be inspected. So, I, would get a VIN plates, some double sided tape and put them over the JDM plates. In the case a cop checks, most won't try to pull the plate just read the numbers. But you'll still be able to retain the originality of the original by keeping the VIN plates. Not legal, I know. But since government isn't perfect, and makes things more difficult for us and requires bribery and fees, I say one over them. Just keep the paper work at home with copies in your glovebox in case there is a problem and you can prove it isn't stolen. I would love a real JDM CR-X, but don't have the time or money for it so I am cloning one. I don't see CRXs becoming like old muscle cars at auctions or shows so I am not too worried about authenticity, just overall theme and appearance. It's kinda easy to pull one over on the system if you know the know what you're required to do. Except in Cali, most states overlook our cars. My car used to hit the emmisions dyno with the ZC and passed, and NEVER got even looked at. Check to see what vehicle regulations are for your state. Buy a same year junked CRX part it out and keep the dash, door jam, and radiator support plates. Put some smooth tape over the number on the firewall, and spray it with some body colored paint, then smear a thin layer of oil over it to absorb dirt to age it. Just my $.02 since the govt makes you jump thru hoops for everything. Just go around the hoop.


instead of doing that illegal, i am pretty sure that the EA can be imported legally since it's over the age of 25. So all you would really have to do is have it shipped to your nearest port. Plus I think they are a lot cheaper in Japan, so it may be worth it. You could probably get a stock one with ZC for $4k shipped.

A JDM Mugen CRX was imported about two years ago into Califronia by a company that brings in a lot of cars from Japan. Keep you eye on Yahoo Auctions Japan, interesting stuff turns up every so often.

I would think that the hassles of bringing over a single car for a private individual would make that a rather large task. If you really want a D16 in a CRX, it is easy enough to drop one in yourself (or have your lcoal shop do it).

but the problem is finding a decent shell to begin with, especially in the Northeast.



#491791 Importing

Has anyone imported a JDM/EDM 1G CRX or 3G Civic into the US yet?

I'm pretty sure they are legal now. Would be nice to have a 85 CRX Si with a ZedC. ph34r.gif
