thank you! mine was a 99 DX. It was an awesome car, but getting it above 40mpg for one tank was like pulling teeth. It was also crashed when i got it, so that prob hurt areo a bit haha. Im sure it would have done better with a taller final drive or 5th gear also. The CRX does indeed rock though, its a lot easier to find info and parts for, and when i read about the 40mpg epa ratings i was pretty surprised. Im actually shopping for a d15z1 right now!
