Title: Thinking of selling my crx, How much do I ask for it?
Post by: ratcityrex on August 12, 2010, 07:29:38 PM
Well Im not a big fan of doing this but Im really thinking of getting rid of my crx. My plan is to pull my motor and turbo setup, and drop a stock Ls that I have sitting on my stand. I want to get a 94-01 integra. Then drop my turbo shit in there. So I have been looking on craigslist to see what the asking price is, but they range anywhere from a B/vtec swaped crx thats had the shit beat out of it for $1500 to $5000. So whats a fair price for shit listed below? I was thinking of putting it up for $3500.....IDK? And going from there.


Quick rundown.

90 crx si
Stock B18a1 w/ hasport mounts
2.5" exhaust
Full obd1
Wire tucked  ::) by me (never again)
Batt in the trunk
Weir tract. bars
Stock 91 integra struts with H&R springs 1.5" drop from stock
Full energy suspention inserts up front
Integra front brakes and hubs
Stock rear disks
Walbro 255
Im sure Im missiong a bunch of shit Bla Bla Bla............

I woul be happy with a trade for a 94-01 CLEAN integra

But I figured I would ask 3500, and get lowballed for 3k.

With the wire tuck you should get atleast 13,000.  It probably gets +17mpg with said wire tuck.  Ask johnny. 

srsly tho, you're going to have to lie to get the most amount of money out of it, say things such as.. "GSR transmission, koni shocks, etc etc"  Just a bunch of bullshit cuz you're likely gonna sell it to a dirty beaner.

Let's get this straight.  You expect me to make it home on Skank9 valvesprings without a turbo to propel me on my way?

Fuck you, sir.

I can't believe you'd remove the heart and soul from your car and then try to sell it to me.

Dont do it man, i got my crx when i was 17 and i still have it (25). I wouldn't even think of selling mine, i almost did around 5 years ago, but then my wife told me not to be an idiot, and i kept it.


you will regret it! It isn't costing you any money just sitting there.......
Title: Re: Thinking of selling my crx, How much do I ask for it?
Post by: Towdogg on August 13, 2010, 11:20:27 AM
Put it away in the backyard or something... (Store it)   If you sell it you'll regret it...

Think of the time and effort you'll never get back...

I would get it out of sight and go buy the integra...   You'll recognize the integra ani't shit sell it and be back in the crx before long...

Chris might ban you for getting rid of a uber clean rex sir........

Title: Re: Thinking of selling my crx, How much do I ask for it?
Post by: glustic on August 13, 2010, 12:09:18 PM
I've thought about selling mine a handful of times, but remember like everyone else said, you've pit a lot of cash and time in that car

I have a tahitian 91 Si in my garage with bodywork done, just need to fix my compressor so I can shoot it.  I paid $400 for it and could easily get a grand for it as it sits.  I would never consider selling it.. rust free crx = gold

It is a sad day that forces me to do this to one of our own, but I hereby nominate AJ for Banhammer Wednesday.  To forsake the One True Chassis in favor of another is unforgivable.

You would really treat a crx like this?
This is a plea to you, my friend. A fellow NW'er that knows what the potential is, don't fucking do it or your throat will get slit.

You guys make me laugh. My wife keeps shaking her head saying that I'm a stupid nog if I sell it. Idk I just want a new project. Maybe I will just save up a little coin and pick up a teg shell and throw my boosted shit in it. Fuck it I'm sure I will keep it. Every once and awhile I think of dumping it but just can't put a for sale sign on it. :'( :'(

How about I put my motor in your car, and you put yours in mine and we call it a day.

At 2500... I would be interested. It would go to a nice garage and I would care for it as if it was my own child.
Title: Re: Thinking of selling my crx, How much do I ask for it?
Post by: chris on August 13, 2010, 04:52:11 PM
I say keep the crx the way it is, no point in selling a classic clean car for a couple grand. Only reason to do it if your were stone broke and needed rent money etc.



Save a couple grand and get a clean integra to drive around in with all the nice stuff. Im sorry sir you are not allowed to sell that vehicle.

Man if you'd have posted this last week before I traded in my car for a corvette, i'd have traded you straight up for my 98 integra and we'd have both been happier.

Well I got the mbc working good now and 20psi rippers are now making my pee pee tickle so there is no way in fuck im getting rid of this car. But I do think that i will pick up a beater dd.


On a side note I think i need a new turbo, this one is starting to smoke a little from time to time. I think im gona keep a eye out for a hy35.  ::)

I drive this car from my house to work and back (Less than 4 miles round trip)and I want something that will hit full boost a little sooner. 5k is a little late when you are only reving this bitch out to 7200. So I would like to have it all in by 4k. But I would like a little more power too. So thinking that a holset hy35 would meet my needs. Or a h1c with a smaller than 12cm housing.


So Im thinking:
new traction bar
upgrade to a thick half core rad. That will fit above my new traction bar and not have Gangster lean
get a bigger turbo
put a 4bar map sensor in
have the nog tune it

Id love to get any one of my crxs back but i doubt i will own another crx :( . If i got rich all the sudden i would buy another in a heartbeat. Just right now a clean crx pulls like $3k. For $3k you can buy a badass shell and drop a good engine in it

I've considered selling mine because sometimes I would like something a little more refined O0  Luxuries like power windows/locks, and air-conditioning are sweet to have, as well as plastic that hasn't changed color from age and everything else falling apart...

But, I'll keep it.  After all the work I've put into it (so far), it's really not worth the effort to sell for a month's pay.  I know I'd want one again down the road and finding a clean one is getting to be a bigger pain in the ass every day.

Keep it and just save some cash for a beater.
