im thinkin about trading my hatch for a crx... the crx is nasty primered, on ground controls, with an ugly six hole "racing bumper" but its got a dohc zc motor that runs "o.k." because hes using an obd1 dizzy when it needs an obdo i guess.... i will be keeping my new si wheels as i just put new rubber on em yesterday.... lemme see if i can find the link http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/car/446497970.html what do you guys think... my hatch is a salvaged title, with a stock d16ad that has bad rings( smokey little bastard) but has exhaust, bilstein struts gc adjustable perches" coilovers" straight trade or what?

do it =P i traded my hatch for a crx and im happier with the CRX
thats about how im feelin... plus for some reason my wife thinks the hatch is hella ugly but she thinks crxs are sexy.... i have to involve her in my projects since we share finances ya know? to a limit though... she likes big ass body kits, and shiny stuff... im not into that.
Kinda of off topic, Did you ever get the camber kit installed? Oh yeah since I like 4th gen hatches better then rx's i wouldnt trade.
im just sketched cuz its a dohc zc and doesnt quite run right because of an obd1 dizzy... sounds a little fishy to me... and no i have not installed the camber kit yet... apparantly the front of the 4th gens needs to have ball joints pressed out and replaced to use a camber kit on them... so ill figure that out when its time on the crx if i get it..;. if not ill find a way to do it on the hatch cuz i just bought new tires that i dont want to kill.
DON'T DO IT MAN!!! lol..
hey ur from NCT huh? i have an OBD0 dizzy if u wanna get it from me..it's off my 89 crx SI
I believe that camber kit utilizes the upper controlarm bushings which dont need to be pressed out. Little helpfull info for you. If you decide not to use them let me know. I'll gladly buy them off of you.
yeah bro just let me knw
i had the same choice between a crx and a hatch. i traded my hatch for the crx and was happy...for a lil bit then i bought my hatch back and kept the crx.
well i got a 1st gen crx wit probably 1500 including the price of the car lol its a 1986 crx si wit a t3 turbo pushing bout 8psi and i also got a 2000 hatch wit a h22 motor with probably 20000 invested they are both blasts to drive and most of the money in the hatch is type r gooodies i get looks in both but i guess if i was u to choose i would blue book them and keep the most expensive one lol
yeah, i dont do body kits... i try to keep my cars looking clean and stock... thats what i meant when i said im not into that stuff... the crx would stay on si wheels, and all i would do is paint it a solid color and call it good w/ maybe a lip.
I say hatch. If you want a crx, and a 2 seater doesnt effect you, then strip the rear of your hatch. Now your just as light, if not lighter than the crx. It's the same engine bay, you can put the same motors in. I guess in your case its just more of a exterior looks thing. Both cars have the same potential in my eyes. I like the looks of hatches more though.
thats ignorance. and just not true. the crx is always lighter....its a fact. that doesn't change my vote though.
