I have 4 5zigen N1R QF in 15 x 6.5 with the universal 4 bolt pattern. 1 need to be welded and need a repaint, they are really light. Are they worth anything? No center caps and no tires. They look like this but this isnt my picture. :

Steering has some play and will need to be addressed as well, any ideas what this thing is worth?

Well when I bought my K swapped CX hatch to do my little switch-a-roo and resell it with my boosted B20V, I paid $7200 for a clean white CX chassis with full SI cloth interior, working heat/defroster, radio etc, 06 TSX Block with built K20a2 head, ported RBC, rebuilt 6 speed with aftermarket diff, Kpro, coil overs, etc. The car was ready to go, passed local emissions and inspections, daily drive able plus could see high 12's at the 1320. So with that in mind, bein that this one looks clean but isn't quite finished and also can't be tagged in your area, I personally wouldn't spend more than maybe $5500-6000 for it.

I've been looking for a Jackson Racing supercharger (kit) for my 1992 Civic Si (with the D16Z6), it looks like they've been discontinued, and they seem somewhat hard to track down online, does anybody know what I should be expecting to pay for one? Here's the link, part number 989-100. MossPerformance.com High Performance Parts & Accessories

They are indeed discontinued so your going to be looking at buying one from someone that has one for sale. Check EBay and things like that, but they tend to go for around 1800-2k for a good complete kit. IMO it isn't worth it for a D series as a well setup turbo system can be had to make more power for the same money. The only real benefit to a JRSC on a D16 is they compliment each other well in the TQ department, but this is a stock D series were talking about so your still well under 200 HP/TQ after a large investment.

You posted in the correct stickied thread, in the correct subforum. You're already leaps and bounds above the average new member

$2500 is a bit much for a car with 190k on the clock. If it's in good condition, with records of recent maintenance (timing belt and water pump, specifically), I could see $2000 for it. You're looking at a dirt lot dealership though, so expect to pay a little more than it's worth.

If it was well maintained then $2500 is a fair price. $2000 would be better, but if it was well taken care of it should last another 190K.

It'd be easier to swallow $2,000 for a car with 200k on the odo if it had the 98-00 grill. I don't think he would've paid much more than a G for that car.

Lmao, at first when I read the car belongs to a "local corner dealer" I thought you meant like a drug dealer standing on the corner slangin dope haha. I was like who the hell would buy a car from a corner drug dealer, and why would you think they're honest haha. That's funny as hell man.

Default Fair price for a new installed cat?

2000 Honda Civic EX. Pretty worried my cat is going out and will not pass the next emissions test. What is a fair price from an independent shop for buying and installing a new cat? In Southern California if it matters.

~$250 for the cat, plus an hour of shop time. Be ready to pay $350+. Or call around and get quotes. Or go buy a cat and do it yourself. It's like...6 bolts.

I'm looking at a 93 del sol with an obd2 b18 swap that pretty clean and new weather seals. Nothing that I noticed to stay away from and I was surprised that it wasn't beat up. I have a $2900 offer on the table, is that fair or am I paying too much.

That depends entirely on what swap was used, how it was done, and how the car looks.

It's a B18C and overall it's pretty clean. Interior is good, seals are good, and no rust dents or dings. It has a 70mm tb, buddy club rims, XTD flywheel and clutch and a hondata s300. I've definitely seen worse. I've also been out of the project car thing for awhile so I'm relearning the price curves.

I'm also not looking to turbo it or do any high powered mods, I just want to do a few thins here and there and focus on suspension and rear disc brakes.

Doesn't sound like a horrible price then, assuming the current owner isn't trying to hide anything.

The teg seems like a better purchase. The EX might have been better if the mileage was as low, if it had the correct engine, stuff like that.

So I bought a 93 Del Sol Si with 130,000 miles on it. It needs a little TLC, but it runs great. Paint is good, interior is good. I paid $1500.00. Was that a good deal?
