whats a 93 hatch shell worth?

clean title, no rust, no dents, needs paint. black interior, no wheels (just spares to help it roll), no exhaust, no engine/trans. manual pedals.

basically drop your swap in (with stuff like engine harness, ecu, radiator), hook up an exhaust, toss wheels on it and go for a ride.

I have no clue but I'm thinking $600?

Thinking about selling it this spring... 6500 OBO most likely...





Hoping to get at least 6k...anyone who knows hondas in and out knows that would be a steal for this car.

Just a quick list of what it's got:
95 GSR Block bored to 82mm
GSR crank, rods w/ RS PR3 slugs (11.4:1)
00 B16 head, 3 angle valve job
Supertech VS/R
LMA's rerounded
Delta 282 cams (comparable to S2s2) on S2 Tuner gears
ARP headstuds
Maxbore TB 68mm tapered to 64mm
P30 IM portmatched to TB
RMF Narrow
RC 310's
Gates Belt
00 S4C B16 tranny, added quaife LSD
ACT streetlite flywheel, Exedy stage 2 disc and pressure plate, BC short shifter, ARP flywheel bolts
Apexi WS2 catback
Suspension Modifications:
Omni Power sport spec full coilovers
Blox LCAs
ASR subframe and 24mm swayar
AC Autotechnic CF front strut bar
Beaks* lower tie bar
MOOG adjustabe ball joints& tie rod ends
Wheels/Tires Modifications: White Rota GT3's wrapped in TOYO Proxes 4 rubbers held on by Rays Engineering Extended Blue Lugs, topped off with honda "H" center caps
Interior/Exterior Modifications: Tenzo Sports Rally Race Seats, 3 gauge pillar pod w/ boost, oil and water
Corbeau 4 point harness for driver, stock belt for passenger
Type R black carpet w/ CTR black floormats
ITR red stiched shift boot, ITR shiftknob

WWRS front lip
JDM clear corner lenses (I imported them from japan)
JDM tail lights
Spoon mirrors
15% tint all around
8k HIDs
Car made 180whp 125tq on a dyno dynamics w/ the exhaust on. Opened up I would expect mid 190's and w/ a better IM (Performer X) over 200whp easy.

How much would a 1996-2000 Civic coupe (Not hatch) cost that's around 100k miles?

Without pics or any other info you should have just gone to Kelly Blue book to get an idea.

I'd give you that for it but you can keep the Beaks bar.

Hello guys, need your advice on buying 1992(?) Del sol 1.6 soch vtec. It has a strange vin-code...
Could you decode, please? Especially 10'th digit.
JHMEH62600Sxxxxxx (last 6 - serial number, right?)

240 000 km (150 000 m), automatic, fresh paint, was a front hit, so radiator is new, also gearbox oil leaked, but they* are going to refill it, new lights, filters, liquids, spark-plugs... engine is not renovated. * all work is done by professionals.

This left hand drive Del sol was first registered in 1992 (Europe, Estonia) - how it possible? Japan?

Should I buy and how much should I pay?

Thank you in advance!

Basically it just leaked after the accident.. They are offering a 2 month guarantee on the transmission and engine. Final price is 1800 euro.. What do you think?

Im looking into buying a roll bar for my 96 hatch since I do a lot of canyons runs, wanna be safer. Found this one on craigslist, guy wants $150, looks like it only bolts in with only 2 points behind driver, is this even worth it or is it just bling factor?

Def pass, im not too familiar with european market, but seems overpriced and likely has frame damage and is salvaged.

hey everyone, just picked up a 2000 civic si with 97k miles on it. i used to have a 1988 celicaall trac turbo with an st205 swap in it so this was a big downgrade in power for me. it's si blue with coilovers, hids, fogs, intake and a dc sport 4-1 header. no exhaust which i love cause it's nice and quiet but throaty at vtec and up. i ended up paying 5900 for the car and just want to know if i really got a good deal or not, it has a rebuilt title there are a couple flaws but nothings huge, just cosmetic things mostly. i'm assuming its rebuilt due to theft/interior/motor and tranny stolen. reason i think so is because when i brought it home i noticed there was no vin tag on the dash, the tranny, or the block. the engine bay one still matces the title. i even found a sticker with a barcode that says "b16a2" on it lol, assuming it's been bought from an engine place? it runs so amazing, doesn't burn or leak a drop of oil, and hangs with my friends gsr. anyways what's the downside to this whole rebuilt title and no tags that i may encounter in the future? :/ here's the car:

The vin thing could issue in the future if you ever try to sell it.

Basicly, the the engine/trans, and dash could/ more then likely are stolen.


The only reason some removes the vin tags is if they are trying to hide something. Sadly, finding engines with vin tags these days is pretty hard

anyway i can call state patrol and ask to get a new vin issued or something? that was it's at least legit? idk much about this stuff, i am mostly scared if i get pulled over and i get a cop that check the dash "oh, whats that? no vin tag? no engine or tranny tags? step out the car!" lol. i love the car to death and i wanna keep it for years to come cause i have a huge build plan coming for this guy.

Head: $178
resurface, valve job, grind and clean valves, hot tank/clean, install skunk2 valves with new valve seals, skunk2 valve springs and titanium retainers.

Block: $225
decked,bore and hone .5mm over to 75.5mm, hot tank/clean

im fine with the head job the only problem i have is the price for the block
IMO
BLOCK:
decked-$50
hot tank/clean-$40
bore and hone .5mm over $20 per hole X4 = $80
$170

thanks for anyones opinions
Wait, why are you having a valve job done if you are replacing the valves???

they grind the valve seats so the new valves seal well . most of a performance valve job is in the angles cut into the seat

Sounds like you got screwed. You will have your car impounded every time for not having a vin on the dashboard. They think its stolen and then will have to do a investigation. PITA. I would of paid 5k tops for a clean title. I would try to get ahold of previous owners and try to find out what the deal is
