car does have some door dings on driver side (as you would expect from a daily driver). i also have the OEM original side skirts (never used), the OEM mud flaps (never used). i still have the small binder that came with the car that includes all booklets, original paperwork, even the window sticker. extra sets of keys, valet key, you name it. the only thing missing is the original floor mats (they were the ugly, grey houndstooth ones anyway).
car will also included stock injectors, ECU, steering wheel, shift boot, EVAP system, etc.

no. i wil not trade for another honda. no. i will not part out car. if someone is willing to buy this car as it sits i will sell it. i'd rather keep it than part it out.

interior has no rips, tears, broken pieces, faded areas, etc.

i have no idea how much power the car is capable of, it has yet to have a WOT tune. we have estimated at 13psi it should be near 350whp with the methanol with torque well within the safe limits of the stock sleeves. the car does have extensive part throttle tuning done, so car drives fine and can be driven as hard as you like as the current WOT tune pulls quite a bit of timing and adds extra fuel to be safe. the car is quick but NOWHWERE near it's potential.

thanks

$18,000 NO o.b.o. price is 100% firm.

Sorry, but I have to call BS on this.

If it is true, I'm sure that would deter a lot of people away from the car. There's no way you could drive with 1400#/1600# springs on the street.

 

what a bute..... nice indeed

 

Damn, I didn't know that there were ITRs out there in "the no"



lol Reid - get 'im!

I hope it was a mistake on his part.

If the spring rates are 14k/16k that works out to about 784#/896#. Much more tolerable than 1400#/1600#.

 

beautiful car, nice setup... wondering why you didn't get WOT tune, though...

 

just sold mine last week. 1526 you are the closest number to mine i have seen. gL on the sale.

 

y would u boost a r ? how sad haha nice car good luck on the sale !

 

Very nice looking car ans good luck with the sale. However, I do have a question.

Why would you buy a JDM ITR engine with 11:1 compression and then boost it? I'm not saying that it cannot be done but it just seems counter-productive. Please elaborate.

I just figure that hi-comp and boost don't go well together. Even the stock ITR motor isn't the easiest one to throw boost on, it would seem to me that the even higher compression JDM version would be even harder. What happened to the stock motor?

 

nice car for a nice price IMHO, i like Reid am wondering about those spring rates...

 

BOOST and 10.9 CR go VERY wheel together. Response and power.

you would be wrong, sir. but thanks for the bump. i never said it was 1400/1600#. the springs have tags on them that are clearly labeled 1400/1600 (14k/16k) as mentioned above

the car has been a work in progress. just finished street tuning. wasn't going to do WOT tuning until the methonal was installed. i have decided to go another route.

a few. my friend has one as well.

exactly. by our math:
11:1 C/R + methanol + good tune +13psi of boost on an SC34 = near 350whp and LOTS of response.

stock C/R does not = bad for boost.

after all the street tuing i've done, i can't not BELIEVE the responsiveness of this car. it has INSTANT power. i've been the 8.5:1 C/R route on a 2.0L and this feels more crisp.

full boost by 3800rpm


***edit. i sold the stock motor and had a built motor. too many issues and not happy with the low C/R, long spool time, etc. so, i went back to OEM with a smaller turbo. best decision i've ever made.

if i don't sell the car, i'm gonna have LOTS of fun at buttonwillow AND the drag strip

The spring rates are 14k/16k then.

Saying "1400/1600" or "1400k/1600k" makes no sense at all.

typo. i fixed it. that's what i get for posting at 2am. i guess i figured most people would use common sense to figure out what the 1400/1600 meant (the exact numbers written on the springs. i guess Spoon does not measure in lbs or kg). sorry for the confusion

AND methanol

 

That is an extraordinarily beautiful and well-done R. Were I in the market for one, yours would be at the top of the list. Good luck with the sale

 

Who cares it looks really good. Good luck on the sale and I hope she finds a good home. Can you be nice enough and sell me your SRS steering wheel. pleaseeeeee

 

hot car and and i believe in high compression boost too, all my friends have 10.5 and higher, 9.1 and 9.5 was in the old days when all they had was fmu's an ****.

thanks, man. i appreciate it. i'll be sad to see her go. the good thing is: if nobody buys the car i'm still gonna be insanely happy. i win either way
