I would like to see your CRX setup

A friend of mine just picked up a clean 1986 CRX and he want to build a little show car. He hasn't decided if it will be SQ, Street Beat or SPL. I want to show him as many different vehicles as I can so we can plan out what HE wants.

1st gen crx's respond alot diffrently then 2nd gens (which most use) but they can be loud.

we only played with our first gen for a few weeks, but were able to do 153.5 at 2005 world finals with 2 12" l7's and 2 crossfire 1000d's.

There was a single kinetik HC2400 under the hood, a gm large case alt, 4 runs of power 4 runs of ground wire. box subs up port to the drivers side. with 2 4" ports

They get SB Loud for sure! spl is another story

second that motion spl

Sell the 1st gen, & get a 2nd. Here is some info you might find userfull when looking:
88 has seat belts in the B pillar, 89-91 has em in the doors....biggest differences..others are flywheel in the 88 takes a smaller clutch, different looking tail lights (89-91 are JDM looking , while 88 is all amber. front corners in 88-89 have 2 scews, where 90-91 don't. The front bumper mounts & bumper lights are different in the 88-89, 90-91 are different...but are all interchangeable. The lightest one made is the 88 HF. 88 SI also does NOT have rear discs, where 89-91 does. LS integra are the same thing though, & a bolt on swap (some E-brake cable mods MAY be needed). Instrument cluster is also different on the 88-89 more square, the 90-91 are more rounded. Molding on the outside (1/2 way up the side is different in 88 than 89). NO US sold CRX was offered with a rear seat BUT JDM ones were...though do not fit a full sized person. SI have cloth on the door panels, where HF & DX were only vinyl. Also SI seats & Headrests were different. There are Engine, brake, axle & wiring differences too, but are mostly due to trim (SI, DX, HF).

I think the only 1st gen with Fuel Injection was the 86-87 SI, all others were carb.

wow.. thats alot of info..

Lots of great info but still no pictures.

Our First gen at 2005 world finals

First setup in the 2nd gen


another view of the 2nd gen setup


Sorry I dont have detailed pics
The 2nd gen setup consisted of
(4) Kicker ZX1500's running at 1 ohm each
(4) Kicker 07 L7 10" Dual 2 ohm subs
(6) The "V" 12v/16v batteries
alpine deck

was good for 159.3 outlaw and 157.8 on the dash after playing with it for about 2 months. This was a nice setup I wish i would have went back and spent some more time on.

I can say that I'm lost with the new

Highest with the two 10s was 153.1dbs
Highest with the two 15s is 158.5dbs

some interesting and just straight builds poasted...

basically.... from what i am gathering is.... throw a sub in.... welcome to loudness... lol

Really not that easy, but close to upper 40's and lower 50's. Takes work to get higher 50's and low 60's. Alot of work actually.
