"Cheap sporty car for a lot of fun!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The wheel alignment has a nagging pull to the left. A simple wheel balance will fix that up.

I have 16" mags and the wheels rub on the rims of the car when I go round the corners with passengers. Lower performance wheels should reduce the problem.

General comments?

This is an exellent reliable and economical car for any would be racers.

Power steering and electrics are very nice, it feels like a shuttle cock-pit.

The back seats aren't designed for big people in mind and a few extra kilograms in the car does reduce its performance, but me alone it's awesome to cruise in.

I have recently fitted a K&N filter and air intake, plus have had a 2 1/4" pipe and big bore put on it. These have dramatically increased my red line ability immensely.

It's a fast light car which can easily be modified for fun.

I don't think I understand when people talk about the "back seats". Do you mean the bench behind the front passenger buckets (i.e. the hidden locked cargo box on the floor) that people can sit on? There are no seat belts of course... I don't think that any CRX ever had legitimate back seats. Or were the interiors of UK or Australian models different than North American?
