I already have the same manifold, I bought it earlier this year, but this kid is sending the manifold with it.... he was too lazy to part it out, so he bit the bullet. The CRX might be drivable in a week, but not all put together till spring. I got to see if this will rotate the tires like I want, if not, I'll resale them and just go with a bigger engine.

I already had one mani, but this many has been ported...so now I guess I'll just pull the head again, and match the port, and might as well toss on the rusty old header.

And the picture is the cover photo of one of my favorite bands...kishidan

if you've been to Japan, you might have heard of them...

I can parapara. But these guys weren't even born when I was in Japan. The "White Samauri" was still on TV back then, if that gives you an era, and I'm not sure if they even had ouendan back then, altho BaseABalloo was quickly replacing Judo as the national pastime.

I've seen one of their videos where one girl had an Afro the size of a Thermo-Nuclear explosion. Can't imagine where that came from!

I still think your Avatar should be hosting "Tokyo Bandstand" or something!

This is reminding me of a CRX I saw over on Skiff St. in Hamden a
couple of years ago, I think it was at the Midas Muffler shop or one of
those. The kid had a 2.5 liter Acura engine in it that sounded pretty
wild but he and his buddy couldn't seem to get it to run just right.

Hmmm, 2.5 liter is a little bigger than a 240Z engine, how much does
a CRX weigh? Similar horsepower-to-weight ratio maybe?

Clay ~ would this CRX be of any use to you? It's dying slowly in a field.

Rick, it weighs about 1800 lbs, and the motor I'm tossing in will be a 2L, about 150 hp/140 tq... :twisted:

Frank...wrong year on that crx...nothing works from those to older crx's, but if there was an old 86-89 Integra somewhere...... :wink:

I'm surprised that didn't sell, those are hot car for the kids these days. There is a Honda club here were I'm at, maybe try craigslist RI. I'd rather have the Integra you just mentioned. I had an 88 Limited edition, and that was awesome. Wish I still had it, I've never seen one since. It comes factory with a full body kit, gold rims and fully loaded.
