Here's my 1988 Honda CRX Si. Bought it on July 7, 2010 out in Anaheim, CA (from CRXrex) for about $940. Much love/thanks to my bros Andrew & Brandon + Nate for tagging along/photographer & especially Moog for a big help as he scoped out the Rex for me a night before for the go ahead on the purchase as I was way out in Lancaster, CA.

"'88 CRX Si, 100%stock, new fuel pump new fuel filter, runs very good and very good gas saver too, the speedometer cable is squeaking because it can use some lube or replaced, small crack on windshield,front bumper is a bit slanted, paint is fading(come on its an '88), no back seats no cargo cover, it has a 12" sub and some speakers bumps good, needed the car to get to school and work but now I'm buying a car from a dealership so you can say I'm upgrading..i am a Honda enthusiast so i did treat this car like a baby, never revved passed 4500rpms, changed oil every month and 2 weeks washed every week and vacuumed every Sunday kept it as clean as possible"
I'm surprised I was able to dig these up and still even have them
Now I was only able to attain this car with the help from a friend (Moog) here on the CRX Community site as he inspected it the night before my purchase. Here are the pictures he got of it July 6, 2010 before I bought it the next day. I'm beyond very thankful for his help to this day.
Also I posted stuff elsewhere on here so ya can read up on little things right ---> here <---

1988 Honda CRX Si SMOG (2010-07-07) - YouTube
Same day as when I purchased my rex (July 7, 2010) I arrived at my parents pad to clean it up and show it off to my family (bros/friends in the pictures)
These edited photos bellow I posted online elsewhere. Ran across them and their the reason I started digging up my old photos and wanted my 1988 Honda CRX Si back on the road and share it on here.
These fuses and Chilton manual are probably the only thing I bought for my rex after purchasing it; went super broke and homeless, but I had a 1988 CRX Si!! So I started to review it till I got most of it in memory for my engine removal, to motor swap, and electrical wiring (although it didn't help much). More on all that next time...
The stock D16a6 engine lasted me about 4-5 months after purchase. Oddly, tranny was still perfect with no grinds!! Ended up selling for my "CRX fund". But this engine ended up sending me into a world of mess with the loss of 2 jobs. Now this is a late low budget build thread, so I won't be doing anything to crazy or super fast.
