Dons03EP3 1990 CRX - Eugene, OR

[Dons03EP3]

Just picked this bad boy up about 2 hours ago. After 4 years of no CRX I'm happy to say I've found another one.

1990 Honda CRX HF
D15B8 Motor w/ 16V head.
CRX SI Tranny
PM6 ECU with Turbo Edit
14" (:meek:) HX wheels painted black
Full SI interior

It's lowered on no name ebay springs with a camber kit on what I believe to be stock shocks. It's pretty clean and I'm really looking forward to having a project again! If anyone is familiar with turbo edit or just have suggestions or know where to source CRX parts now-a-days post up and let me know!

:rockon:

you've got me confused with 'holy EFFING cow'

[its a ivtec]

shits clean as hell..good find..how much did u drop on it and do u plan on making it K ?

[Dons03EP3]

I paid $1900. Talked him down from $2,200. I don't know if a K swap is in the future or not. I'm trying to figure out which swap would be most worth it or if I want to swap it at all. I'm sure that I'll do something wild since it's not my daily.

If you're planning to autocross, familiarize yourself with the SCCA rules & mod to class.

nice crx. i wish i could find something like that here in cali. either run into something thats cost 3k to 4k or one thats all riced out and crap.

[Dons03EP3]

That is the same situitation I was running into around here. Found this one and decided to jump on it before I could talk myself out of it.

[shadowmd]

cool!

[L337Ep3]

wow
I freaking love CRX's, looks like a good project.

[lostep3]

Sell it to me

[Breakep3]

sorry cow, lol. To many cows on one forum.


Personally I think a kswap would be sick put a k20a2 in your ep3 and put the a3 in the crx and you have got it MADE.

[PAPITUYO326]

Perfect

[oldschoolimport]

nice pick up! did it have a total repaint sometime in its life? I never knew that you could get an HF in red. I thought it was an Si only color, kinda like the yellow. :confused:

Nice find. Don

[cow]

sorry cow, lol. To many cows on one forum. It's all good, but yeah, that guy is a tool. I'm glad he didn't re-register.

BUMP FOR DON'S CLEAN CRX!

[Rep]

The body looks really straight! I'd keep the SI motor and trans, it's plenty of power to keep up in stock class at autox. :mwink:

HF's came in a maroon color with black interior in 90-91, I think. ive seen another in person.

[ClouD]

Great find, and it'll be fun auto-x if thats in your plan.

[ep3moschini]

nice find! I think im going to start looking for another one again. . . :mcry: I wish I had never gave mines away lol

[ohdamngetit]

:bump: for a clean crx!!! Nice find.

[ZCCRX]

Love it! Si interior is a huge improvement to the HF. It's nice that someone already went through the hassle of puttin' it in for ya. Whats with the driver door hinge?

lol, the HF seats blow. One of the first things I did on mine.

[Dons03EP3]

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I'm pretty stoked and looking forward to spending lots of time on it. The paint is original. It was just maintained really well I guess. The Si interior is a vast improvement over the HF. Although my old DX had the cargo cover, tilt steering and AC. But the way I see it now is it's all dead weight I don't have to worry about. The drivers door hinge rusted out. It's the one spot of rust I can find. Not a big deal though, it still opens and closes great. I was glad to see the stock shift knob but it's stripped out inside so it just spins. Going to have to see if the EP's will fit for now.
And the Maroon color Replica was talking about I know came on the DX too cause that was the color mine was. With a full black interior. Color code R-72P if I remember correctly. Overall I think it was worth every bit of the $1900 I paid out.

I had my EP knob on my CRX. Fits like a glove, but looks kinda tall. The best shift knob for a CRX is the Integra GSR knob, from the DC2's. Great knob.

[Dons03EP3]

It's still up in the air, I'm thinking either clean, subtle, JDM inspired daily or Autocross. Haven't really decided.
