Yeah, it's getting harder and harder to find clean CRX's and if you do you'll pay for it.

I finally got around to take a pic of the engine bay. It's nothing special, just stock.

I don't get it, is it faster? The steering wheel is on the wrong side but that's all I can tell other than a different badge on the back from your average CRX.

Not trying to be a downer, I just don't get the added cool factor the rest of you seem to have found.

Well, the differences of the japanese crx and US crx is quite a bit. A US crx si for example has a 1.6 sohc non vtec motor and no power options available. even A/C is an option. A SiR from Japan standard options are a B16 dohc vtec engine, power windows, power mirrors, power steering, automatic climate control, A/C, Integra brakes, ABS, factory tinted bronze windows, upgraded front end and different taillights, rear seat, and the option of a glass roof. That's the reason of the cool factor for these cars, plus there aren't that many of them in the US. Glass top SiR's are very sought after.

I didn't realize these had power steering and ABS.

Where's the battery?

Unfortunately the previous owner relocated it to the trunk and I haven't had time to put it back under the hood. Plus its been way too hot to do anything. I plan to put it back this weekend. Saturday is supposed to be in the upper 80's

That's an easy enough job though right? Get it relocated back to where it goes and a nice cleaning an your in there like swimwear on a fat chick!

I need you guys' opinion. What do you think about muha22752's Watanabe RS-8's on the SiR? I need to see what they look like on the car to make up my mind

They'd probably look good. Just drive over there and test fit them.
