Hello all

Hopefully embarking on a VTEC Mini project shortly. But which cars had the B16a2 engine fitted?


Cheers
Lee

Its all in the above link mate, they were in all the crx's

The early crx up until '91 has a B16a1 which has a cable operated clutch
The later crx from '92 (also known as del sol) has a B16a2 which is a hydraulic operated clutch like the mini

You'll have no trouble finding either engine but the B16a2 is more common out of the two for a mini conversion, and it has an extra 10hp which is helpful :unsure:
