In August I bought myself this beautiful '91 CRX si with 230,000 miles. Engine had low compression in one cylinder, failed leakdown everywhere, slipped in every gear, but was in beautiful shape and was exactly what I wanted (black si).
So I endeavored to do my first major mechanical project - An engine swap. Got the b16 ordered from HMotorsonline with y1 tranny, OEM LSD, mounts, shift linkage, axles, ECU, sub harness, the works.
Here are the pictures I managed to grab during the engine swap process.
my buddy and I being real hip hop right here
Honda Family
Out with the old
In with the new
exedy clutch pack
resurfaced flywheel
my life for over a month looked like this
BOOM (fixed the clutch cable routing shortly after this picture lol.)
And now she is all done just in time for the Pacific Northwest world famous endless rainy season!
Thanks for checking it out, couldn't have done it without HMotorsonline, VIPperformance here in Portland, Thomas Automotive, crxcommunity, hondatech, google, and my buddies and dad's help thank you everyone!
