Hello my name is Alex I got a 87 CRx for $80 bucks its rough on the edges but really clean body no rust I'm guessing it came to Utah from California and we found some smog stuff on it

I got the little CRx with a blown clutch and the trans pulled out already and it was missing tires/rims but I have e30 rims (80's BMW 3 series)

Another member and my best friend has a CRx as well right now he has mine and we are going to put bike carbs on both mine is being used as a doner car so we don't have 2 CRx's taken apart

Welcome to the site.  If you guys do end up swapping bike carbs, please log what you do and post it up on here.  I think a few other members are collecting parts to do the same thing and there's really not much info out there for swapping onto our cars.

We plane to log every little thing we do from tuning to setting it all up and we have help from a former motorcycle mechanic so I feel we should be able to pull it off an get them working

We have bought cbr600f carbs an a set of cbr1000f so we will see how it varys on jetting and tuning I also would like to find someone that can make a flange for a intake manifold so we can play with runners I have a good ideal just need someone that can do the machine work

Is it just me or are you missing more of your rear glass window? You Crx needs a bit of loving but I'm looking forward to see some work into this :)

It does need help but that's why I got it :) I have always loved the crx and after a friend got one a year ago and iv seen some of the things he has done and parts are cheap haha I may get a replacement motor just cause we have so many in the junk yards around us there is even a 1 gen teg brown top in one yard

And yes the back hatch glass is broken out and was replaced with pexie glass so I'm just going to redo it in pexie glass but do it better its just glued on no bolts or screws
