Re: Replacement Motors for 85 crx
Welcome to the world of the 1G!
A friend of mine ran into the same problem when looking for a JDM motor for his carbed CRX. Engine importers don't see the point in importing these motors because there are very few left in JDM land and there is not much demand on this side of the pond. Eventually he did find one locally, but this was about 7 years ago.
I ran into the same issue when looking for a ZC for my car. Engine importers will not import a 1G CRX SI motor because it is a DOHC motor in Japan and won't "drop right in". Fortunately the 1G Integra has the same ZC motor and they're still imported. However, I ended up using an '89 Integra D16A1.
Anyway, I'm not sure where you can find a motor. You might try Ebay(?). Like most parts for these cars, you really have to dig deep and search hard for the parts you want.
Good luck!
