hell i would do it but ask him when he put the supercharger on and where he got it and test drive it alot first i like that cage and stuff tho. it looks pretty good. i know i would go for it. ask him when he rebuilt it too.

test drive ALOT ask him to take u somewhere whereu can test its supercharger. lol i would test drive it even if i didnt have the money and never call him back

I personly bought a civic 89 hatch from CL with a supercharger on it (jackson racing) and the guy said it only had 10k on the motor, well the motor ran strong for about 2 months then blew on me get the car but make sure u get it tuned and make sure it is getting enought FUEL... also ask the guy for some recieps of the "forged" internals... but other than that it seems like a fair deal

ya but the car will still be fairly quick for a crx, i mean i took my hatch to the track once, and it was my first time ever to the track... i gutted it out only 1 driver seat and all the back seats/panels were taken out... only had a intake, exhaust, supercharger and SOHC zc, and the clutch was slipping a little and it ran a 14.9... thats not bad for a NON tuned motor runnin stock injectors and a FMU
