Re: 1st Gen CR-V Buying Tips

With some more searching I've found that:

- Valves need adjusted every 30k.
- Rear diff. fluid may need changed.

1st Gen CR-V Buying Tips

I'm going to look at an AWD 2000 with 100k miles this weekend. Anything special that I should look at beyond the typical Honda stuff?

Thanks!

Re: Paint Options

Good points and that's why I've at least considered red.

Thanks for your input!

Paint Options

I have a 96 GSR that is bone stock. I'd like to get a couple more years out of it, but the last 17 years in OH and PA have taken their toll. The paint is faded, the rear quarters are rusting, there's...

Replace front wheel hub or just bearing?

I need to replace a front wheel bearing on my car. I'm sure I can do it on my own, or take it to a shop to press out, but I'm sure it will be a pain with lots of swearing involved either way. Would I...

Re: Insurance for Track Car

Thank you for the help. Not in the best mood today and should have chose my words better.

Re: Insurance for Track Car

Yes, I'm friends with the agent and he knows about it. It's liability only coverage so I'm not getting compensated no matter how I wreck it.

Obviously if I'm complaining about $30/month then a...

Insurance for Track Car

I just picked up a 97 GSR for autocross and HPDE events. I picked up a liability policy for it for $30 per month. I rarely ever drive it though and wonder if there is something cheaper available?...

Yea, he posted the link earlier:

Either way, you have to be a NASA member. I've been meaning to do that so I took care of it today. Here's that link:

Re: Mid Ohio HPDE Aug 14-15 w/ NASA

So how much more track time do you get with the HPDE session vs. the Hyperdrive session?

Trust me, my cherry is ready to be popped. I should have got started with this years ago before I got...

Re: Mid Ohio HPDE Aug 14-15 w/ NASA

I'm going to try and get the funds put together. I'm only an hour and fifteen minutes north, straight up I-71 almost to Cleveland. I'd also like to go down the weekend before for World Challenge /...

Re: Mid Ohio HPDE Aug 14-15 w/ NASA

I've been waiting to do one of these for a long time. I just picked up a 97 GSR to use specifically at the track. It's bone stock right now, what kind of prep work do you recommend for HPDE1? I'm not...

Re: One GSR slower than the other.

I didn't want to admit it, but I think that might be the case. I'll have to get some more miles on it and see what I can find out.

One GSR slower than the other.

I've had a 96 GSR for over a year now. When I got the car it was stock except for the exhaust. No clue what type of system it is, but it is stainless from the cat back.

I picked up a 97 GSR the...

Re: Are Manuals rare enough to jump on one right now?

I looked for about a month before I picked up a TSX for my fiance. Its an auto 05, black on black, dealer maintained with 78k. I paid 12k for it from a private owner and was very happy with the...

Re: Noise when turning straight or turning left

Its a whining noise and not a clunking noise. That is why I originally thought it was the tires. I know that I need a new tie rod on one of the sides (probably both) but that shouldn't be causing...

I thought it was my chunky winter tires that were making a the loud noise, but it is still there after I put the summer wheels on. I notice it when I am driving straight and getting worse when I turn...

Re: Should I get another GSR?

You're both right. My fiance doesn't want me to buy it and I'm not getting a positive vibe here either. I'm going to pass on it.

Thanks everyone.

Re: Should I get another GSR?

I guess the way I'm looking at it, the drive train is at least worth what I would be paying. Then I can always pick up another chassis dirt cheap if this one proves to be too much work.

Re: Should I get another GSR?

I'm assuming your $600 GSR had a bad motor or something though. I don't have the budget to build a racecar from the ground up. Just trying to put something together cheap that will get me through the...

I already have a 96 GSR. Its in decent shape, no mods. Its starting to rust. I found a 95 GSR for sale locally with a lot of stupid mods that I could get dirt cheap. Needs bumpers and a windshield,...
