Default Rust Free EF hatch - JDM ITR swap

SOLD!

Now that the price is out of the way you must be asking yourself why it's so cheap. Well, I have four project cars and want to pick up a different one but need to let one go first. I am less attached to this car than the others so it's gotta go. Originally I built this car for my girlfriend because she wanted to give a shot at road racing but in the two years since its completion she has yet to drive it.

On to the pics:















The features are as follows:

98 Spec JDM ITR swap
Supertech valves, springs, retainers
STR cam gears
Spoon venturi-plate intake manifold gasket
Jun header
Jun oil cap
Jun radiator cap
Feel's baffled oil pan
HKS exhaust
CTR N1 pullley
Avid Mounts
Avid axles
ACT clutch and flywheel
ITR trans with LS fifth gear
Syncrotech carbon lined synchros
ECTuned P28 - dash harness has been repinned for the OBD1 conversion

4x114.3 brake conversion - milled hubs into EF SiR knuckles so the geometry is right
SSR MKI OR Team Dynamic wheels with Falken tires - your choice
Innovative traction bar
PIC select coilovers
K Sport lower control arms
Benen rear lower tie bar

CRX dash conversion
Vision steering wheel
M's adjustable shift ****
Seibon driver's seat
Bride replica passenger seat
Crow harnesses
Custom harness bar
Rear seat delete - fully carpeted interior
Alpine stereo

The exterior is stock aside from an SiR wing. The shell is completely rust free down to the unmolested quarter panels. The driver's door has a small rust spot under the handle that is about half the size of a dime . . . maybe. It is a prior theft attempt with a clean title but the way the guys tried to steal it they marred the door shell where it meets the door frame. This doesn't do anything but make the door look ugly when opened. I was going to source a replacement driver's door if the car was staying. Hopefully its not.

The only annoyance is an intermittent short on the circuit that runs the radiator fan. Occasionally when it kicks in the tach, coolant gauge, and turn signals drop out. It's something I haven't gotten around to fixing but I'll include the 1991 Civic Helms ETM with the car. Knock yourself out fixing what should be a barely shielded wire with heat-shrink or electrical tape.

So that's it. Rust free shell with a JDM ITR swap for a bargain. If you are local to Chicago I will happily meet you at the police department of your choosing for a once-over, test drive, and sale. If you are not local we can make arrangements that suit your situation.

Updated the first post with a picture of the seats and my GF's kick-*** pursee.

Also added the Syncrotech carbon-lined synchros and Spoon Venturi-plate to the parts list.

Headgasket was changed when I got the engine and I threw in ARP headstuds and did the usual timing belt package.

The EF is officially with the new local owner. I wish him the best with the car, I know it won't let him down.
