... yeah, I have no life.

 

What year and model car is it? And it's not the stock motor is it?

 

95 EX coupe, and yes, stock engine. I'm not sure if the engine is original or not - I helped my friend buy it 5 years ago with 78k and he never did any major work to it.

Still doesn't burn a drop of oil between oil changes and still gets 32+ MPG :D

 

I had 267k on my old 93 Civic DX. Stock motor, oil change every like 20k miles. Second owner. Great car, had to sell for new beater.

 

hehe I got this civic for $200, in severe need of TLC. Needed a clutch, tie rods, CV joints, tires (wound up getting wheels too), and a shitload of cleaning. Hadn't been washed in over a year.

$500 for wheels/tires (yes i know it needs to be lowered), $170 for catback 2.25" exhaust, $15 on corner lights, $35 for a clutch disc, $60 for a tie rod, $35 for an alignment, and a hell of a lot of cleaning up. After all this, I have...

 

no wonder the corner lights were 15 bucks, they dont even line up!

 

bah, the car's been totalled before and I was lazy when I put them on =P The original ones were cracked and full of water.

 

wow

 

damn that is still a good deal. Just make sure the frame is straight. Mine has 233xxx miles on mine. Keep on rollin' baby

 

yeah, i had the frame checked by the alignment shop (they specialize in frame work), they said if anybody's worked on the frame they did a damn good job. I figured even if the frame was toast I could part it out and make at least 300-500 profit. I definately need to line the hood, bumper, and lights up - the hood sits kinda funny and the lights don't quite line up right, but I figure 1-2 hours of work should have that all fixed since the chassis and radiator support are straight. Just sloppy work when it was repainted.

I'm going to rent a compression tester soon, but I fully expect it'll be within 5% of a new engine.

 

not trying to be a dick, but is this even tech related? I mean seriously there was a post about some guy who just turned over 250,000 miles yesterday, this today with pictures, seriously what happened to h-t? next thing someone is gonna be like hey I hit 143,513 miles today, give me a cookie!

 

i got 140,000 thousand miles on mines and i still hit vtech witout problem no smoke no nuttin, i pushed the motor a lot of times and still hit 120,mph,it gets good *** gas miles...

 

... vtech? You have a cordless phone in your car?

and "140,000 thousand" is 140,000,000. Somehow I doubt your car has 140 million miles

 

mine is about to cross 195k so in a month or so it will crossover into 200k territory

 

175k strong

Thats t3h m4d p0w4 of Vtak Y0! Warp 9.9 powa! It will get those miles up there in no time. But it's a Honda, so that's just broken in.

 

I just picked up a 94 ex coupe with 196,000 on it. The car runs like a ******* champ. It runs like it has 50 miles on it. Got it for $150.

 

yeah man i wouldnt worry about the corner lights, i still wish i didnt settle for my ek and got an eg. one day

 

my del sol have 186000km

 

Mine has over 420, 000 on the motor, and over 300,000 on the body, still running as strong as ever.

 

211,000 on cx hatch... god, i hate this motor...
