Just found this site by accident. But seems to be good so far.Some info about me.

So far I had 4 crx's. Got my first one (90 blakc si) in 2001, and wrecked it 10 months later. Then I bought a 91 crx hf drove it around for a year and then got a 1990 Integra For a DD car while working on the crx.
The plan was to buy a b16 swap online for $1300, But I found a 1990 crx si that some kid cloped a truck with for $1400. The previous owner (before the ricer kid) was a girl that did all the monds B16A1 AEM CAI, AEM Fuel rail, DG exhaust, ITR IM, Tokico blues, Nice cd plr, JDM Tail's and a brand new paint job.
Since the car was too much to repair (Pass Side door, fender, and roof)
I just swaped everything over to my mint condition HF. The si came with the most amaizinb interior so now my hf has is interior. I combined my GC coilovers with the Tokico blues and topped it off with some Flat black Rota Slipstreams (15's).
Drove the car around for another 6K miles, and broke my tranny in a mall parking lot. It wouldnt go into reverse so on 20th attempt I forced it in. And that is when tranny fluid started to leack. It hav been sitting in my garage for the last 8 month now. Since I cant find an LSD cable tranny anywere for a decent price.
But right now I'm rolling around on a 1990 crx dx with a Sohc ZC. And my 1995 integra should be on the road soon too. THE END

I'm new as well and yes, it was from black_krix_si's post linking to his photos on this forum.

I've got a white 1990 CRX DX stock D15B2 with catback Dynomax SuperTurbo mandrel bent exhaust and a Momo shift knob! LOL!!! Lots of mods to come in the future but I need to take care of the Honda cancer first as well as either completely replacing the interior plastic trim pieces or repainting them black as the previous owner painted them black and did a crappy job!

I'm in the same exact boat as you, except my idiot previous owner painted them red. :evil:

If the guy actually painted or stained the whole interior rather than skipping sections, it would've been nice. Looks like he didn't even bother to take anything out of the car and just masked the windshield and sprayed away!! He even was too cheap to buy a performance muffler so he decided to punch a bunch of holes in the stock muffler for that nice "ricey" sound!! Idiot!!Oh well... I do have my eye on an 88 HF that has flood damage and may sell for next to nothing. I'll be able to pull a few things off of that for my car and maybe sell the shell.

Welcome to the site! This is the CRX site that I can proudly call home. If you need any tips or ideas on any of your projects, be sure to post your questions. This is a much friendlier and helpful site than a lot of others that are out there.

We were in the same boat in that regard. This is definitely much, much better. The atmosphere over here has done wonders for me. I have never once before had the urge to make a "How-to" article. But over here, I feel like any and all contributions are genuinely appreciated. And here's the best part, I actually had fun in the process.
