So excited for this build! I started re-watching your 88 restore because it feels like UA-cam has a lack of CRX content these days, everyone's moved on to other chassis or sedans
The CRX content is definitely lacking, probably because it's such an old chassis now. But it seems they are as popular as ever.
I’m another one looking forward to this build. My Blade Silver ‘89 Si is languishing away in long term storage. I’ve got a crap ton of parts I bought that and have yet to install - Fastbrakes big brake kit, rear disc conversion from a ‘90 Si, EX master cylinder, 4040 prop valve, lots of NOS OEM parts. A few months ago I even dug out my OEM louvers and found the original mounting hardware. Seth’s meticulous builds are an inspiration and will eventually force me to get my project going again.
@@tirider8990 Don't wait too long to get to work! You should be able to enjoy the car!
I am currently fixing my moms old 1990 CRX with my grandpa. Love your videos, keep up the great work!
Awesome! Good luck with your fixes!
that's really cool.. Cherish that time and learn as much as you can!
@justaguywithcrx what's your IG bro! I follow as many EF builds as I can cause they have my heart as 1st tuner I owned
Y49 Crx is the best! 💛The only car I miss that I no longer have. Glad it’s getting the restoration it deserves.
:crosses fingers: that it goes well and turns out nice!
@@crxsethYou’re going to crush it! Looks like it lived a lot of its life in warmer climates.
In also had a 1989 Y49, and just like you, I definitely miss that car. It was so much fun to drive
I like the direction you are heading with the level of restoration. I cannot wait to see another successful Crx rebuild and on the road. Glad the out of state buy was smooth and successful. I get very eery about sight unseen and sellers hiding things. Sounds like it was a great out of state purchase on your end. Thanks for being transparent on cost, you absolutely deserve a good profit. You are really helping the EF community.
Thank you! Hoping it goes well and I'm able to find all the parts I need!
@@crxsethwhere do you get the rubber dash mats you mentioned? I have had any luck finding any
I've grown up around these cars since I was a baby, I have 3 uncles and they all still have their CRX's to this day, I really wish I could've experienced these cars as an adult keep up the awesome work.
It being an 89' and making it a B16C is a perfect combo. Color rarity is a plus in a mild restoration for me. Always loved the white 89's with the close ratio.
Doing the same to my Y49 right now. Love to see it
Gonna be another banger series. Can't wait 🤌
Can’t wait to see the finished product. B16 in a CRX is super OG.
That's what I'm thinking!
こうして見ると初代NSXのリヤデザインはCRXの影響を受けている様に感じます。
どちらのデザインも素晴らしくて好きです。
インテグラの仕上がりも楽しみです。
I got my 2024 all planned out. ❤❤❤
Can't wait to see this one done. Love the quality you pour in and the passion you have for these restorations. True motivation for my ef hatch
Thanks 👍
Your channel is the only honda based content channel i actually watch. Keep it up!
Appreciate that!
Glad you got another CRX. CRX Seth. I’m excited for all the videos coming. I lost out on the last one you sold. 😢Once this is all build. I hope for a fair chance to buy this. 😊
Good luck! With the build. 👍
Keep in contact via Instagram through the process is the best way. I’ve already had someone expressing interest. I have no timeline yet on completion.
Looking forward to seeing this series! I am working on a 91 CRX with a B16 swap. I don't have a whole lot of knowledge when it comes to repairs and restorations so your videos are always insanely helpful and motivating!
This build is gonna hit home for me! Like literally she’s from my home state of Texas! That truck stop she got loaded up at too that loves I used to stop in there all the time when I was delivering beer statewide for a local Fortworth brewery named Martin House. You’re kill this one! Can’t wait! Your videos inspire me a lot! I’m an EF guy till I die 😎🤙🏽
Nice find Seth all the best with the build. Love the OEM plus direction and keen to see the what the original colour looks like once paint begins. Enjoy the restoration process.
Thanks 👍
I was a little afraid you would get away from CRX content when you sold the last one. Seeing you pick up another reaally got me excited. I watch you flip Rex's over and over again. keep up the great work.
I was thinking about doing my EG, but it seems there are sooooo many CRX enthusiasts out there, so I may stick with it for another minute or two.
That's a lot of optimism when talking about a Y-49 without even acknowledging the curse 😅
EDIT: ok there we go, you mentioned it 😂 I'm hoping for the best Seth!
Looking forward to another series! I learned a lot watching the last 88 Si build. I also bought a Y49 89 Si back in September, and your videos always get me motivated to improve it whenever I can. Thanks for the great content!
Thanks for the support! Hoping this one goes more quickly than the last, but it’ll get done one way or another! Good luck with yours.
Excited to see a Y49 restore Seth, great choice love the crx series!
Can't wait for another one. We all will be here to enjoy. Because at least we know you will save a another one.👍
Looks like a perfect candidate! I’ve got 3 of these in my barn I’ve had on the backburner for a restore for years and years now! Can’t wait to see another build! I may have some parts you need and I’m in southern Indiana. If there’s anything you can’t find - hit me up!
I need a hood, door panels, tail lights, right headlight and probably more! Message me on Instagram, please!
I can't wait to see this rebuild. I have an 89 HF that was sprayed Y-49 because I loved the color. Let me tell you, the curse is real, my friend.
you gotta include these same walk around shots after its done and show them side by side for comparison, im envisioning it already and i love it
I hope it goes well and turns out! 🤞🏻
Bro im over here stupid geeking for this! Like legit my face hurts from smiling watching this whole episode! The Y49 is my absolute Favorite CRX color! Its sooooo 💥 in your face beautiful like Y56 ITR yellow! I almost died when you said you got this for such a steal at $800! I mean yeah $2k shipped but still you got such a clean example there bro! Ive been wanting one forever! You kno imma keep an eye out for parts for you all day! Man I wish I'd have had the chance at this thing 1st 😂 now im fiending to see this full build now 😫 damn you the man! 💪💪💪
Thanks for the support! Hopefully I can find everything I need. Message me on Instagram if you have anything!
Yes! Im ready!
Im sure its in the right hands, but man thats a project! Cant wait to follow along Seth
Haha, I didn't think it was too bad! The last car was a JOB! It needed so much. I feel like this one doesn't need as much.
Awesome find bro. Just some advice from a guy who has multiple projects going on at one time. Finish the Type R swap first. You'll thank me later. That way you can not only be able to move it, you'll also have that peace of mind knowing that it's done. Just trying to help save your mental state from getting overwhelmed.
Thanks. Yeah, I do get a bit of anxiety if I have too much going on at once. I’ll definitely get this black one back on the road first.
That thing is hideous 😱 but I’m sure you can breathe some new life into it. Exited for this build series, be sure to upload everything you do on it please🙏🏻
Looking forward to the Y49 build. Cant wait for the next video!
awsome!!! Really looking forward to this build, im currently building 90 si have another 88 that im taking alot of parts from thanks for these vids seth!
This is so good man! Looking forward to the series
can't wait to see the progress ! currently rebuilding my own and it is a fun process for sure
It’s a lot of work, but very rewarding once it’s all done!
Nice pickup! Excited for the new build
Damn...poor CRX...looks like someone loved it at one point.
You know its bad when the passenger seat has bolster wear haha.
That thing is rough but sadly cleaner then most you see now days. It’s painful in the walk around to see things wrong on every side you look at. Leaving it struggling to idle while shooting that was a nice touch
I can’t wait to see what you do with it 😊
I have an '89 in my garage. Can't wait to restore it. Love your vids!
Good luck!
Im really looking forward to the restoration videos for this CRX. I wish there was someone around on youtube with your kind of passion, style, and ability that was restoring 92-95 civics, basically you with eg's instead of crx's. I learn so much watching your videos and it motivates me to get my 93 hatch back on the road.
I feel the same about the EG’s! I would love to do some of those, especially since they seem to be more common. My first car was an EG. Maybe I’ll eventually do one. My issue is there aren’t as many people hoarding and parting out EG’s like there are CRX’s. So finding parts would be more challenging for me. My resources are EF specialized.
@@crxseth oh there is a bunch of people hoarding parts AND chassis, just not a bunch of them selling them, lololol
@@rgreerjr That's unfortunate. I don't live in an area where I can just go to the junkyard and buy a bunch of parts, unfortunately. I think it'd be cool to get into the used Honda parts business, but I don't have the means.
You’re the best man, love your content.
I appreciate that!
excited for the next build. keep it up.😊😊
That is like DIRT CHEAP !!! Wow ! Sure, it needs a lot of TLC, but like you said: it's looks to have "good bones". For a good dash, you best look here in Europe, as we don't usually have cracked dashboards due to lack of sun and temperature. Looking forward to see the whole process and learning to know the car more. Great stuff! Love from The Netherlands.
I agree! I had to rewind the video to make sure I heard the price correctly!
Thanks for watching!
Yesss the OG Y49!! roughly just as many miles as mine lol😅
disregard the y49 part of this...
Awesome! Can't wait for another CRX Seth build!
You and me both!
i just picked my CRX up in September and i love it so much, although she's got a few issues she's a good girl. Working on making her better than i got her. Hopefully gonna rebuild my B18 here this summer, we'll see.
Good luck!
The more CRX content the better. 🙌
Danas the plug for all this stuff
He's on the other side of the country! Shipping costs....
i would love to own a yellow CRX one day.
Hi Seth,
Finally you stay on CRX, that's good news 😀 !
Finally !! Let’s goooo Seth !
The curse of the Y49 is when you try and color change it! Lol
I guess I’ll stick with the yellow.
ooo yeah! crx reloaded
please make it factory spec!
WTG! yeah another build.. lets go!!!!
Yes! Another rebuild!
Transparent and good video. Thumbs up.
Thanks, I try to be as transparent and up front as possible. Not a lot of reason to hide all the details.
Nice one bro 👍 💪 🤝 💯
ありがとうございます！
Thank you!
Wow Y49!!! 🤤
Only 800 bucks??!!? Man that’s awesome.
Best channel ❤
Nice score seth. ✌🏻🇳🇱
Thanks!
Very awesome, congrats on the y49
I have my own project this year, a 96 civic ex. I'm thinking of creating a UA-cam channel for it. Any tips on resource like music or cameras & such. I have a simple little camera I got from Amazon a while ago but haven't really used it
Start using what you have and focus on quality and content. When you feel like your camera isn’t giving you the quality you want, upgrade. I say go for it! I’m always down to watch a rebuild of old Hondas.
You know what would be pretty cool/interesting, swapping a double d (dohc zc) into it (yeah yeah yeah, its an SI with what appears to be the factory vtec motor).
Whatever you do I just gotta say, you are single handedly saving these amazing vehicles from inevitably being sent to the scrap yard to be crushed and thats awesome. Keep making these videos and we will keep watching.
I may be wrong about the 89 si coming factory with a d series vtec. Im an EG guy not a crx guy.
No worries. It came with a 1.6 liter non-VTEC single cam engine. This one in it is out of a Civic VX or HX.
Japanese Si had the DOHC D16... such a sweet motor. But on those rare occasions you can consistently keep it over 6k the B16 wins, (apart from its cost).
It's already a job to restore the car , you have to record and edit the video too. 👏 👏 👏
Yes, you are right about that!
Nice!
Legend!!
Nice car. Looks like a p07 long block with p06 intake and exhaust manifolds. Needs an A6, hood bra and sunroof visor imho.
🔥🔥 Badass 🤘🤘
It’s my car 🎉
Это будет крутой проект.
I would like to see you restore and keep the hood that is on it
I had an obd1 d15z1 vtec e motor in my crx for a year or two. Florring it everywhere I would get a minimum 48 mpg.
Cool look forward to seeing the progress on your projects. Ever think about getting a b18a/b or b20 block and doing a ls/b20 vtec using the b16? It would be a much better driving experience. Goodluck
I haven't gotten too far deep into building engines at this point. I've always heard the torque increase from the larger bottom ends makes a big difference.
That hood is sick! I think you should body kit it to match the hood... period correct of course. And sell tge si wheels or keep em for yourself but the y49 gonna need some cooler wheels
I think I’m trading the hood for a B16 transmission very soon!
I say get the black CRX done with paint, and B18 swap, then start on the Y49
That’s what I’m thinking.
What is the rubber matt you use on the dash? Cant wait to see the build , your last build helped me out a lot with getting my crx road ready
www.tegiwaimports.com/tegiwa-replica-edm-rubber-dash-mat-honda-civic-crx-ef.html
Seth, trying to source a hood for a USDM CRX with a b18c swap. Any suggestions? Obviously there are CF options ... Though it is difficult to determine whether they are JDM or USDM fit. Any thoughts?
How do you find deals like this? I'd love to find something like this to work on.
Eat, breathe, sleep CRX’s and you’ll eventually run across one. It works for me.
Why not finish the black one first 🤷🏼♂️
In the video, I say I plan to get my original black CRX done before diving into this car.
Loving the Y-49 content! Can I send mine to you for restoration? 😅
If you sell it to me for super cheap, maybe!
@crxseth where do you get the rubber dash mats from? I’ve been looking for CRX dash mats and no luck
Tegiwa
@@crxseth awesome thanks
I have an original barbados yellow CRX with a B18c in it. Love the paint color but since it’s a single staged paint job the clear on the hood roof and hatch is horrible but overall the car needs a repaint on mine.
Love you content. Hey how about a 2.2 SOHC VTEC swap ?
I always wandering about this option since is cheap and there’s so many available.
It’s just not very popular. It’s like an H22 swap, but less power. It’s possible, but not really the best choice.
Yup, she needs work ❤
Does anyone know some good cams for d16a9?
Just make it a track car and have some fun
Don’t know if you look for the rare stuff but there is a 1987 CRX Strasman convertible in my neck of the woods. Colorado Springs, Colorado. Facebook market place.
I am all about the good deals, not necessarily rarity.
Very concise and informative video. You have a very good skill for explaining the steps. Do you have plans to upgrade your lights to LEDs? We'd love to invite you to do a review of our LED lighting product. I hope I can reach out to you with your approval.
Have a few crxs I use parts what all you need
DM me on Instagram!
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO
I need this car
Where do you find these cars!
Eat, breathe, sleep CRX’s and you’ll eventually run across one. It works for me.
2k for a crx in that condition up here in quebec it would of been at the very least 5k that is crazy
Is that pale yellow a rare option?
They were painted that color for three years and a total of 8,264 out of 171,000 CRX’s. It’s the second rarest color behind the 1991-only color of Tahitian Green Pearl.
You going to sell the yellow one after your done?
Most likely, yes.
Damn I was looking at this car
What do you mean?
I saw this car on marketplace, I considered buying, it’s in a good home i look forward to the build.
@@jflyg2652 I never knew it was listed!
Is this a customer car or personal car? Im seriously interested in purchasing, hope to hear back thanks
Well, I currently own the car, just as I do all the others, but I will probably sell this one just like the last two I redid.
Would you recommend a crx to be my first car?
Sure!
@@crxseth awesome would you recommend the DX as well? BTW i love the content i wish there was more vids cuz i almost watched all of them lol
@@SludgeeProduction DX doesn’t have a few features of the Si, but you can always swap it. You don’t have to deal with sunroof problems that plague the Si, either.
@@crxseth thanks man i appreciate you, can’t wait for the new journey and to watch the progression ❤️
Know you like the EU spoiler. I know of one. He was looking 80GBP. I thought that was a good price.
