    The Honda CRX SiR (V-Tec) is good, upgrading this car is good for "Practice" in tuning and building, but you will eventually need to move on to somthing bigger, ie. a 1g dsm or a mk IV supra. Light, extremely good handling, good gas mileage, alot of potential along the lines of a highway racer. Absolutly not good for racing from a dig

    Great little car with loads of potential and can without many larger modern engined cars. Good looks and interior. fun fun fun.
    Reliable little pocket rocket, good fuel economy if driven normally. Good fun to drive and very modern looking for a 18 yr old car.

    I've had mine couple months. It's a project car - poor condition right now but parts are cheap so it will be nice.
    Love the car and shape, and acceleration on the little car it may be little but its packs a wallop. Once you get the right stuff I'm putting a invader full body kit, exhaust, headers, fuel injection, B16 motor ecu, stage 3 turbo and stage 3 short shifter clutch it should top out like 170 maybe also maybe racing chip then it'll be nice but you should get one plus I got the SI so sto ...

    I have owned many cars over the years, Hondas, also owned turbo cars, but recently I've bought a Honda CRX 1994 SIR, no mods yet but this thing moves being a high revving engine. Slap it on third gear while you're on 100km/h and you're can feel the thing pulling. In the years of experience in street racing I would say the Honda 1600 DOHC VTEC engine is the quickest you'll get in the non-turbo range cars.
    Best of all, it's hassle free. Here is some basic mods that is very effective in these engi ...

    I had the Mk2, not a bad car, very nippy. Handled like a loony. fast off the line.

    Tried to replace it with a Mk3. This is definitely one for men who appreciate fashion.

    Excellent 2 seater semi-sports car. The Honda CRX SiR is an absolutly stunning car, I have the 92 CRX Del Sol SiR, 1.6 litre DOHC V-tec and these cars can move, turn heads, impress the ladies and beat down cars with much bigger engines, handling is excellent as is top speed and acceleration.The feeling of the Vtec in full roar is amazing. I would recommend this car to anybody, I will have it for many years.

    I have owned a 1991 Honda CRX SiR VTEC since 1998, and still love driving it. It is the best car I ever bought. It is perfect for cross-country motoring but nippy around town too.

    I own a 91 Honda CRX SiR (V-Tec) Sports Car and its gotta be the fastest thing Ive ever driven, beating integras, audi tts and even scoobys in a straight line. Bought it stock 3 months ago, i've already fitted a full exhaust system, induction kit and superchip. Favourite thing about the car has to be the noise though when I put my foot down and get that vtec smile. You know what Im talking about.

    Hehehe with a big grin - that's all I do - laugh and smile when I'm behind the wheel of my '86 import Honda CRX SiR sports car. I wish I had a VTEC though, but I read that the Jap spec was 150bhp, and it appears to weigh virtually nothing. Although a little bumpy, the handling is out of this world for the money. It does have a rather exotic clutch, described by my local garage as more of a switch - but you get used to it and learn to love it! I'm nearly six years into this one, and will be repla ...

    I own a Honda CRX SiR (V-Tec), and I dont know about the (SIR's) and the vtec b16a1 and all but I dropped a jdm b18c5 (type R) engine in mine! my car is so fast! It redlines at 9,000 rpms! I have about 195 whp! I wanted to run boost, but I think it is much more fun to run all motor and not lose!

    The best car in the world for that money. I have had three a 16v, a UK VTEC, and an SIR.. they are all bad. but an SiR with PAS, LSD, A/C is the mac daddy. Fast, fun, and to good.. get one!

    I own an 88 CRX si, and the title says 2100 lbs, but i weighed it at a weight station, when i was using its spacious rear to haul my new engin around. The car only weighs 1950 lbs
    since then i have modified the car slightly and put into it my 1.8 Litre LS engine (b18b) and bought my vtec head from a b16 parts store.
    i have to say whoever said the crx weight 2400 lbs really doesn't know about the rex...
    I don't got it running just yet, but its soon to be a very fast car. The engine is expe ...

    Hello CRX fans, I own an alpine white 91' Crx SiR B16A1, and this is the best i've driven. Although it's a stock b16 jdm engine, i've wooped 5.0's, and camaro z28's like nothing. Too bad it's not smog legal in the US, so to get your hands on one of these is to consider yourself lucky. I plan to fully mod the engine, don't know if all motor or turbo is the way to go though, so if you guys know or own one that is all motor or turbo, give me some feedback, okie? IIghtz then, just to coment o ...

    POCKET ROCKET. When these compact japanese racers (Honda CR-X SiR) They were extremely popular mini sports cars. The long sloped hatch back gave the CR-X it's unique and sporty image. My first glimpse of the CR-X was the Super charged 260hp Mugen factory model. Lowered, kitted, charged and completely decked out in full show gear, the CR-X instantlly became an obessesion. I searched all my contacts to find a Mugen tuned model but they were no available locally not to mention export.
    After settli ...

    What can I say... this is the ultimate of the 1.6 VTEC engines available its also ultralite, super sexy and blows away most of my mates, one of whom has 323 BMW :-) it's de-limited so no more cutting out @ 118mph I have a full greddy stainless system, jacksonracing supercharger, 18" OZ polaris alloys, it's silver and it also has the electric trans-top i'm hoping to get a VIS bodykit for it eventually but as u can imagine i've spent a fortune already and bodykits dont make my baby go faster.

    I lived in Germany and have the USDM (United States Domestic Market for those far from import knowledge like M3) 91 CRX Si which came stock with 108hp. I altered the intake, custom exhaust, headers and ignition and while on the Autobahn (German Highways M3!) I very easily kept up with Bimmers to include 3 and 5 series. Yes the BMW M3 will outperform a CRX, but not without having to work for it (not to mention the owner so he can pay it off!) I have now a B16A1 (JDM Si-R engine) same as the revie ...

    i miss my Honda CRX SiR as do my mates. It never cost anything in parts for my 92 model. Love the revs but needs tints and torque. fun toy that reacts well to breathing aids. beats fat bouncy gas guzzlers that americans throw out in a bid to poison earth. smooth power comes and then at revs becomes a fast fun drivers delight. Brakes are very impressive.
