FS: '93 Turbo GSR Hatch, Florida
1993 Teal Civic Hatchback Si
VIN 2HGEH3381PH517610
Engine:
B18C swap, JDM GSR motor W/ LSD tranny from Hmotors.com
Turbo:
T3/T4 Turbo setup currently @ 6psi (i have the 10psi spring)
CCA intercooler
Greddy Type-S BOV
Tial WG
Drag Manifold
Skunk2 Intake manifold
Tuned With Uberdata
Permanantly installed PLX-M300 Wideband Oxygen Sensor
ECU setup for datalogging
Greddy fully Automatic Turbo Timer (seamlessly integrated with alarm system)
Thermal R&D 3" SS exhaust
Custom 2.5-3" A/C compatable dowpipe
Stereo:
I cant remember all the specifics, if you want to know just ask, and ill go look, i spent about $1,200 on the system originally, it was all professionally installed
RockfordFosgate Amp (Split between the sub and speakers)
RockfordFosgate sub
Polk 6x9"'s
Pioner 6.5"
Sony Headunit
It has a very good security system that includes remote door locks and an alarm with many sensors, for security reasons im not gonna go into specifics about this system.
Other Parts:
Air Conditioning Removed (i have the parts if you want to put it back in)
Power Steering Removed (Properly with a new resiviour)
Rota C-8 Gunmetal rims
Winstar Exocet Tires
JimFab.com Traction bar (not currently installed, but will come with car)
Carbon Fiber Hood
The Bad:
I am going to be compleatly honest here, this is everything i know of that is wrong with the car. The car has some suspention issues. It is still on the original suspention. It makes alot of wheel hop right now, which would most likely be cured with some coilovers and shocks (and re-installing the traction bar) Also, the steering rack is going bad, at seemingly random times it will creek (sounds somewhat like a bad CV joint) right now there are no ill effects from this, but it can be annoying, and should be replaced sometime in the future. Finaly, there is an exhaust leak between the downpipe and the turbo through the bottom bolt hole on the dp flange, this is because i cant fit a bolt into the hole due to the design of the DP, basicly the DP needs to be removed, the bolt hole welded shut, and then the DP re-installed. Again, this doesnt have any ill effects except that the car doesnt sound very good, and i cant tune it (since the leak causes the WB02 to read lean) in order to up the boost (it is tuned fine for the 6psi it is running now and runs in open loop, so the lean readings dont effect performance) Finaly, as many people know, uberdata had its problems, There is a strange instantaneous lurch at 10in/hg, trust me, this isnt due to bad tuning, we tried and tried to tune it out, but it must be a glitch in the program somewere. Also, the car has been in two low speed front end collisions in its life, but has been repaired. Aestheticly it has a 1" dent/crease in the left front fender, and a scrape on the front bumper. There are of course very small dents and dings in various places that come with a car of this age, but nothing else serious enough to mention. It is actually in very good aesthetic condition.
What does all this mean? for the car to be in perfect running order, i would recomend fixing the exhaust leak, putting in some new suspension components, re-tuning with something like hondata or chrome, and upping the boost to 10psi. It does run fine as it is, but like i said, it isnt perfect.
I cant upload pics right now (we-todd-did-racing.com is down) but i will post ASAP
