I have had the basic wear and tear of city driving. I am a pizza delivery driver and my car runs all day, and most of the evening. Recently I had to replace right front tierod, bushings, brakes, and sport rotors. My car is lowered 3 inches using Ground Control lowering systems and this has caused most of my problems. The clutch is also starting to fail, and will be replaced within the next few weeks.
What I love about this car is that with little modification you too can have your own rice rocket. My car originally came with a 1991 Si 1.6 liter engine and it had 180.000 miles on it. I have just recently swapped motors to a Japanese spec motor called a B16A with 180+ horsepower. If you have the time and cash, this is the ultimate in 4 cylinder race cars you could design.
Uh...a B16A was the VTEC version of the D16A and it only produced 160HP. Check out www.ardperformance.com.
No, the D16A is a Vtec SOHC 1.6l 108 hp.
The B16A is a DOHC vtec 160 hp USDM, 170 hp JDM.
You are right my friend, never sell your rex. I have the DOHC Vtec version and I will never sell it. It has a custom kit (simular to the cyber kit in Australia) and it also turns a lot of heads. I eat other hondas for lunch (I forgot to mention it's turbo charged)

Both wrong!! haha.
D16a6 = CRX SOHC NONVTEC 108hp
D16z6 = 92+civic/delsol SOHC Vtec 127hp
B16a1 = 89-91 Crx SiR (japan) 160hp.
170hp is a b18c.
Although a b16 did range depending on year from 158 - 167 or so.
OK guys I've got a 1990 crx si and it is down need a new motor, but do not know what to go with. Need a little help with picking the right motor and prefer one that is not real costly or needs a lot of mods to be placed. Please hook me up with a good idea and a reliable dealer if that's possible. Thanks.

D16a 88-91 civic hb si/crx 88-91 si usdm 108hp SOHC non-VTEC
b16a1 88-91 JDM crx 160hp DOHC VTEC
d16az 92-95 hb si usdm 126-129 not sure SOHC VTEC.
B16A1 - 160 p.s.
B16A2 - 170 p.s. (Japanese horsepower. the conversion charts are on the web)
OK what's the biggest engine that can fit in a 91 Crx?
I think that would be a b18. You could slap the next size up in there, but you would have to move the steering wheel and driver's seat back to the hatch :)
I own a crx vtec (b16a1) the dyno found (after some mods) 196hp on the front wheels,non turbo charged. when I pass the 5000rpm I think that I am in paradise with god and drinking tequila sunrise!!! god bless vtec!!! johnny g7 piraeus.
I finally have enough to buy a CRX and get my B18, I can't wait to feel that V-tech vroooooooomAMMMMMP.
Biggest honda motor that will fit a crx is the h22a.
The biggest motor I seen that fit in a crx is the jdm h22 type s motor. lots of mods needed, but nothing really major.
All you need I a rex is a gsr with a good head pkg.
