The Honda Civic Type R EK9 may be a performance three-door hatchback designed for the Japanese Domestic Market. The formula employed in building all Type R Honda vehicles is weight reduction and high rpm power. Honda strips everything the automotive doesn’t want such as sound deadening and bolts in a very hand ported B16B engine mated to a close ratio five-speed gearbox with limited slip differential. Honda conjointly used strategic seam welds on the monocoque chassis to improve chassis rigidity. The interior featured red Recaro seats, Type R floor mats a Momo steering wheel and a titanium shift knob. This initial generation of the Type R Civic was built from 1996 to 200zero. The Type R was the top level of performance from the Civic and was solely released to the Japanese Domestic Market.


In 1999, Honda released The Civic Type Rx that featured a compact disc player, body colored retractable powered electrical door mirrors, power windows, air conditioning, key less entry and alternative additions.

In search of sports-car kicks, but with the abundance of speed parts and vast modification potential of a Civic? Look no further than Honda's feisty little CRX.These pocket-size coupes made their debut in 1984. Essentially a two-seat version of the redesigned Civic also introduced that year, the CRX was initially aimed at people looking for frugal displacement (base 1.3-liter versions had EPA rates fuel economy of 51 mpg city, 67 highway) .


But the real news for enthusiasts came the following year, when Honda CRX sport if his version, which included upgraded suspension, performance tires oriented, and hotter than 91 horsepower version of its engine 1.5 l - good for sub-nine-second 0-60 mph times in the featherweight car.For the year 1988, a completely new CRX bowed, based again on a new Civic platform.Wheelbase increased CRX, and this second generation design was somewhat heavier and larger in general. Fortunately, performance remained in the same league with the rating of the horsepower increased to 105 Si, then 108 the following year. For 1990, CRX four-wheel disc brakes.As sweet of a car as it was, this generation of CRX was destined to be the last - Honda discontinued the line after 1991, replacing the similar but open-roofed Del Sol several years later.Today, CRXs used are fairly easy to find, but can sometimes be difficult to gauge its true value - full actions are occurring less and less, because these cars became immensely popular sport compact fans. The price of a particular CRX can often depend on the number of updates you received.Mods are the most popular body kits, custom paint, wheels, parts, and hotter VTEC engine swaps. As with any modified car, look closely at the way the updates are running fine. In most cases, the work has been carried out by the car's owner, whose talent, budget, and experience are unknowns.Most CRXs now sell for under $ 5000, with many of them under $ 3000. The sub-$ 3k CRXs tend to be modified. And without changing CRXs also tend to be restored.

That may be an important point, since all CRXs at least 14 years - a lot of them are pretty tired. That is not likely to find a CRX with less than 100,000 miles at this time. Therefore, buyers who want a complete example of values ​​will begin to consider carefully the amount of money and patience who are willing to spend to basic mechanical repairs.

The first generation are scarce CRXs type, but if you have your heart set on its size and lighter weight trimmer, cars can be found with a little patience. And one more is that they tend to appear in the lower end of price range.

Regardless of what generation or modification level, CRXs little Honda can offer fashion and fun. They perform well, for starters, there are plenty of things available aftermarket, and prices are as low as performance cars go. Check 'em.

K24a1 Vtec Killer Head-Complete
Block cracked around the oil pressure switch so I bought a TSX engine and will no longer need this head. 

Head has 80K miles on it, was only used for about 2k miles 

Parts it has added:

  • K24a2 Exhaust Cam
  • K20z1 Intake Cam
  • K24a2 Cam Gear
  • New Style Ep3 Rockers 
  • CorSport Vtec Killer Block Off Plate

The car felt faster with a stock k24a1 and this head then this 06 tsx engine I have now so I would suspect you can make around 220whp on this head and a good stock k24 block
