1991 Honda CRX Si hillclimb car

Post by DaveEstey »

I'm not happy to do this but drastic times call for drastic measures. I lost my job the day before Ascutney II due to cost cutting and now times are tight. With that said my CRX is up for sale. Upfront, the rockers are soft and the right rear fender is starting to get crusty. The engine started to spin a bearing on the fifth run up Mt. Ascutney this fall so it needs a rebuild too or you can drop in another Honda 1.6 from just about anything. It still runs to get it on and off trailers but I don't want to go more than that. It's a very solid base for someone to start hillclimbing or make an EP Solo car. It ran a 3:28 with a novice driver and engine with 190k miles on it. It is also VERY competitive in AutoX classed CSP.

The rear bumper mounts usually rust but have already been taken care of. Car is painted with white rustoleum (indestructible).

Bunch of pics here:

NO A/C. NO Powersteering. NO sunroof. NO stereo.

It does still have the heater box, which proves useful when you go ice racing. You could easily drop another 200lbs out of the car (will still be classed SP5).

Smart-arms all around
KYB AGX shocks all around
Extended top hats
QA1 400lb springs all around
3-way adjustable 22m Suspension Techniques rear sway
Braided stainless brake lines
EBC Yellow Stuff pads
B&M Short throw shifter
Custom 2.25" cat back w/header
Corbeau A4 drivers seat
Gforce 6-point harness
Momo wheel w/NRG quick release
6-point custom welded roll cage by Kale's Customs
5lb fire extinguisher w/double band mount
Oil pressure gauge (not installed)

The car was always capable of making more powerful cars blush while sporting 205/50-15 Toyo R888's. Racing rim/tire package is not included unless you want to pay more. Car is currently rolling on super studded ice racing tires.

It will and has passed NH state inspection but I wouldn't call this a street car.

Car is camped out in Springfield VT right now.

$1,800 for the car. $2,000 with the rims and mounted R888's.

Buyer must be willing to see me tear up a little as he drives away.

He loves hondas, and has a fleet of them. He expressed interest in the car on the grm forum. His hesitation was only whether he had enough room on his property for it. He wants to hillclimb.

But knowing you, you probably bought it for Julie.

Hmmmm, that would have been a good idea. But, we already have two hillclimb cars.... I figure that is enough for us.

Car is sold. Rich Manning picked it up Sunday morning so the car is now a Williston resident.


Now all I have is this pesky 300hp Subaru to drive. :x
