Default New Formula Red Ej1

Name: Harley
Location: Roanoke Va
Means of contact: PM or Thread
Price: $10,200 PRETTY FIRM.. come pick it up



Description: This car has been my project for the last year and a half. I have put a LOT of time, money, and care into getting this car where you see it today. The car isn't finished (but when are projects ever) however, I have came to a cross roads on keeping it, or letting it go in order to get something more comfortable. I am very hesitant about posting this, so I have no problem keeping it whatsoever, in fact, I probably should but life seems to have a different point of view right now. I am open to trades of any kind, but make sure the offer is fair.. with that being said, here is some more information

Miles on shell - 132, XXX
Miles since build - 300+

-What Meets the Eye-



The outside of this car is in pristine shape. Minus a few rock chips from driving, the exterior is flawless. A local body shop that is very respectable is responsible for the replacement of the body parts listed above that were all purchased from a local Honda dealership. NO aftermarket replacements used anywhere on this car. When the car was painted, it was stripped to the bare shell and done correctly. When put back together, all door, window, and trunk seals were replaced with new ones. This car is very straight and the quality of work that went into the build is something pictures don’t really do justice for. I wanted to personally make sure this car was factory correct as possible so I used all the correct bumper tabs, clips, screws, bolts, etc when putting the car back together.
- OEM Front bumper
- OEM Rear bumper
- OEM Hood
- OEM passenger door skin
- OEM driver door skin
- OEM Driver quarter panel
- OEM SiR front lip
- OEM SiR/Eg6 window visors
- OEM Side skirts with all clips

- Authentic Eg6 Headlights
- Authentic Stanley side markers
- OEM Cowl plastic with clips and rubber seal
- OEM wiper arms with bosh wipers
- J’s racing air duct
- New Formula Red
- Shaved antenna
- Spoon style mirrors











-Under the hood-



The motor and trans both came from Jspec auto as a complete swap. The motor still remains relativity stock but has a complete gasket kit on it. When I stripped the motor down for cleaning and paint, I also used all brand new hardware putting it back together along with the new gaskets. Other than the clutch and flywheel, the transmission remains OEM. I pretty much put the motor together hoping for reliability, as I did not, have not, and will not take it out to beat on it. As of this time, I have a p28 with s300 that will soon be tuned by Blue Ridge motorsports but it is running on the OEM P73 with a RyWire jumper harness. As far as the bay goes, it was stripped and painted NFR to match the shell. Every grommet in the engine bay was replaced with new ones from Honda. Everything you see, is all pretty much brand new from bolts, nuts, gaskets, seals, or whatever else it may be.

-Suspension & Brakes-




When the suspension was pulled from the car including subframe, everything was stripper, primered, and painted Chassis Black to appear as it would have from the factory. NOT SPRAY PAINT! As far as the brakes go, the car utilizes GSR disk brakes on all 4 corners and everything had been replaced with OEM parts. The entire underside of the car has been undercoated along with the gas tank and under the gas tank. When I reinstalled the suspension components, I once again replaced all the hardware with brand new hardware from Honda. The only thing I was I would have done differently would be to replace the OEM bushings with an aftermarket polyurethane bushings kit. Things such as lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rods were all replaced when everything was going back together.

-Interior-




The rear section of the car was stripped of sound detaining material, sanded, primed, and paint NFR to match the rest of the car. The fuse box is in the dash where the air bag was and the battery was relocated to the trunk. Rockford Fosgate products were used for the wiring, inline fuse, circuit breaker, and splitter. The rear trunk section still has most of the liner in it along with taillight covers. The headliner, door panels, rear panels, and speaker deck have all been wrapped in faux suede.

A few things to know
I love this car, and I did not build it with the intentions of letting it go. I would not consider selling the car unless I get a fair penny for it, especially knowing exactly what I have in it. The only reason I am taking trade offers is because at this point in life, I want something a little more daily friendly. As long as I have this car, I will continue to dump money into it because I love the feeling of looking at a project and knowing my 2 hands put it together. This car does have a lot of sentimental value so don’t offer me any junk. I understand that I don’t have a lot of "baller” or a ton of rare JDM parts BUT I highly doubt you find a car with the attention to detail I have put into this build. True, I didn’t follow the trends of tucked brake lines, and a fully tucked and shaved bay, but I didn’t build this car for anybody else besides me. If you don’t like what I have done, that’s cool, but keep it to yourself. I know the time and effort put into this car to get it where it is, and if I keep it, I will continue to put more in it. If you would like to present a cash offer, please do so in PM.
