yeah very nice car,

B16A1
displacement 1595cc
compression ratio 10.4:1
HP 160@ 7600 rpm
torque 111 lb/ft@ 7000 rpm
(amazing what a google search can find huh?)
specs are copied from http://www.streettuners.com/curve/engine/engine_specs.html#integra
so if u disagree with something dont blame me, its a damn american site :rolleyes:

being the SiR u should have back seats and a glass roof comapred to the aussie no back seats and sunroof.
why would u wanna put the engine in an ED? (unless u doin b18c swap....or k20a swap for that matter:D)

Yeah I do disagree...

B16A 1st Gen, not B16A1
10.2 not 10.4

Yes it is amazing what you can find beyond the scope of Ozhonda search, but like most things on the net, just fill people with false and misleading info.
*Points finger at American sites*

from my knowledge the CRX sir didnt come with LSD whereas the civic sir came with LSD(optional?), please re-educate me if need be

Both had the LSD as an option - and standard on the race spec.

THe EF8 CRX SiR is the same as my EF9 Civic - a top car.

I have scans of the brochures for both the EF8 and EF9 if anyone can read Japanese - then again - the scans are 40 meg files

www.j-spec.com.au

few times ive seen a JDM CRX SiR for auction on their site, but they go rather fast.

j-spec have had 2 EF9 Civics and about 5 EF8 CRXs plus quite a few Si Civics and CRXs.

BTW - the Aussie ED CRX is a lot lighter than the JDM one - you are looking at about 1000 kilos for the EF8.

Don't get the ABS kitted one - the ABS is old and not worth the added weight penalty.

Um yeah my crx is from yahoo motor sport..... and no huge problems with it, in fact mechanically its *safer* then this other crx that was advertised as a1 mechanically, in the trader and that had 4 a4 pages of stuff wrong with it, the raa dood said to me he had no idea how it still was driveable ...

Yahoo motorsport (aka John "Dodgy" Iverban) is the dodgiest backyard importers in Australia; he abuses a loophole in the consumer affairs laws by selling uncomplied vehicles this way he can operate and sell cars without a car dealer licence(i.e. you have no protection if something goes wrong with the car). Use extreme caution when buying cars from him. There are too many bad stories around
