my 1st mod's gonna be 10" exhaust tips...i have a set of 26" chrome rims for the CRX

I had a 86 CRX Si back in 87 that I bought with 4k on it. Sold it with 130k+ on it with the original clutch. Only thing I ever had to change was the battery, starter & alternator with regular maintinence and I drove the sh*t out of it. Loved that car!!

It seems harder to find an unmolested Hondas these days than an unmolested 02.

i bought a new 87 crx and like your's, never had a single problem other than front brake pads...i also had an 87 prelude that i drove 329k miles and the only repair ever made was a power window motor and timing belt...

the crx was and still is one of my all time favorite cars

[Jim_75Sahara]

I like the CRX's too. Unfortunately, at 6ft.2in. my head goes through the roof. I remember riding in one down in West Palm Beach w/my wife's cousin. He drove it very fast and scared me since he spent more time checking out the girls along the waterfront than he did watching the road. It was a fun car.

fanatical a following... (several CRX message boards on-line)

I've owned two CRXs, both 85s and both bought as winter beaters--bought cheap, sold at a profit with minimum cleaning and tinkering. Both were ultra reliable, never had to do much mechanically and an absolute picnic to drive. If I wasn't into 2002s, I'd have an '87 SI as a daily driver...last year for the short wheelbase and the SI engine...

Have fun with your new toy.

You gotta start looking over your shoulder more often. What's it gonna be next, a Renault?

CRX's is fun.

if i ever find one close enough to grab....one of these...i've wanted one for years

[Timmer]

Those are 2 Honda's I don't see very often, around here at least. I used to work with a couple people in the later 1980's that had the CRX., one was a lady that drove the car pretty hard. You can do just about as much with those as a 2002. What's the verdict on the 2002? was it a bad brake booster diaphragm?

Seek mental help fast.....talk about a vacuum line disaster!

I worked for a honda dealer for 5 years, most tech's cringe at the sight of those cars.

Best of luck,

Ben

Yeah, but in all fairness, most BMW techs cringe at the sight of our cars.

maybe they do but i've owned a 1/2 dozen hondas and currently own 5 of them...they have been the most dependable & trouble free, lowest cost to maintain and use cars i've ever owned

If you are going to get an old Volvo at least make it a P1800!
