VegaS10 and I installed my runs. We used the factory grommet for all the power runs and drilled four nickel sized holes for the grounds. The factory grommet in a Rex is a little smaller than a baseball.

Really silly question, but is that even a Honda? It looks like a Suzi, but that motor pic above it is throwing me off...

The black one, the turquoise one and my white one (not pictured) all have B16's. The light blue one has a cr-vtec.
Chad explaind perfectly how we did the runs. We used the factory grommet for the positive runs. Figured it be safest to have the "hot" ones surronded by rubber. We then drilled nickel sized holes for each negative run. If a negative run gets "knicked" at the firewall, no big deal.
It is very easy to get 6 hot wires through the factory grommet, and there is PLENTY of room to safely drill 6 matching holes for the negatives.

B16 and torque, now that's funny.

The white one is a "stock" B16, even using an si stock intake. Has the S1 tranny which is good for daily ciy driving, but, is higher geared, so, at highway speeds the rpm's are kind of high.
The black one has a Y1 tranny, which is geared lower, similar to an LS. Is great for highway driving and a really enjoyable car. The invidia exhaust adds a super great low tone and not anything raspy.
The turquoise one has a "mystery" B16. It came with a Spoon ecu and Spoon vtec controller, Jasma header, toda flywheel and LSD tranny. Whoever owned the donor car in Japan obviously had some work done to it. The car also now has a full Greedy exhaust and AEM hybrid intake. It is significantly stonger than the other B16's.
The cr-vtec walks all of the others. The torque of the B20 is ridiculous. I have a J1 (Integra xsi I think) tranny. It is running off a Zdyne custom tuned ecu. Vtec kicks in around 5200 rpm and sounds like a raped ape under the hood. By far the funnest of all to drive. But at 80 mph in 5th gear, it turns 5300 rpm. NOT a car to take on the long highway trips (due to the short gear tranny). During "spirited" drving, I get about 22-25 mpg out of it. If I stay out of vtec, it gets 30 +.
CRX's are alot of fun, even without stereo stuff in it!
