Project IRX: CRX-Insight Renaissance Experiment
I'll try to keep this first post updated with recent information, and leave all the anecdotal stuff to later posts, so let me know if I'm not staying up to date or am straying off topic with it.
Goal: To get the full insight hybrid-electric system into my CRX in working order AND to have it get better mileage than my currect Civic VX d15z1 swap.
Progress:
08/24/09 - I have all or almost all of the parts in the garage, but haven't started gutting my car yet. The Insight manuals are either here or on order and I have most of what I need to complete the swap.
Costs:
Direct costs:
- Swap: $750
Secondary costs:
- New jack: $145
Current Issues:
- New project title? I find the current one a little lacking.
