The first gen CRV is criminally underrated and unlike any other mini SUV. It has 4 wheel double wishbone suspension and is basically a beefed up version of what 90s Civics and Integras came with.
I like the gold emblem. I painted mine gold with translucent paint and called it the “gold edition”. Then the other day I saw one with a gold emblem at the wreckers and realized it’s a thing. I also painted the bumper and will paint the side trim. Wax from car washes always turns them grey.
Sweet rd1, Im running the same maxspeedingrodcoilovers for 2 years and they're still holding up great! Picked up a set or Yokohama A/T's can't wait to get them, thanks for the info on the upper control arm spacer for ball joint correction
You have the cleanest 1gen. I'm still working on mine, I got it a week ago. I hope to have all the bodywork done and have it in the paint booth by next month.
I know this video is old but I like the build you have! I have had a white 01 all is stock but I want to have a similar build like yours; just seeing a lifted crv with beefy tires looks so satisfying lol. the only thing that is stopping me from doing so is the fact is not going to be my forever car, the first mod I am going to do is tint the windows
I got a 2000 off a buddy when I needed a car in a pinch, knew nothing about it. Its been a year, and I wouldn't sell it. Im putting some money in it soon
hi, your crv looks great, can you send a list of thats parts, we could find in a website, but i don´t know the names of those parts, please, thanks an congratulations.....
Just an advice. Do not upgrade ur sound system. People will just break your window and take your sound system. It takes few seconds to break your window and grab your nice expensive speakers. Just an an advice from an old man.
Around $770 give or take. I also have coilovers $220 if you add that probably around 1k. I went the coilovers to give it a even height. Then alignment was about $1xx can’t remember.
How does it drive ? Does it shake when you accelarate MIne shakes like it has parkinson desease when I accelarate. The tires look good when they stick out but I removed my wheel spacers..they are useless.
It drive smooth. No shake from the axles that’s some are having on acceleration. But you can feel the power loss from the wheel weight and bigger tires.
Thank you so much for the reply! I am picking one up in the next week, I wasn’t a big fan of the first generation until I saw yours lifted. It’s going to be my daily driver but also my work vehicle I do Instacart and travel about 150 miles a day so I was concerned about the gas mileage with the lift on it .
Where to find the headlight and rearlight protective grills. I been looking for those for ages and can never find them. Would you be so kind as to share the info?
