NY: FS/WTT 1990 B16 hatch
Some of you might recognize this car from a few months ago when I was previously thinking of selling it. I realize this car is a project but it's a good daily and is pretty quick (ask my wrx buddies lol). I hope you guys can respect it for what it is, please bump if you look.
1990 Honda Civic Dx 5spd
About 135,xxx on the shell
Between 35,xxx-45,xxx on motor
Exterior:
I'll be honest right off the bat, if you want an excellent looking car this will need some work. The car is 16 years old and does have chips, dings, faded clearcoat(mostly hood and roof) and very small rust bubbles starting to form (only on back of rocker panels right in front of rear wheels). The vehicle has damage on driver fender and front bumper due to a side swipe encounter with a neon a few months ago. Corner turn signal isn't there but one on bumper is still operational so it's legal. There is no frame damage.
Interior:
Stripped from front seats back. Has EG seats, Bride steering wheel, short shifter and **** installed. Nicks and rips here and there but the dash and door panels are good overall. The combination switch for the headlights/blinkers went out on me one night so I just bought a new one and taped it to the column for a temporary fix.
Drivetrain:
OBD0 B16 with ys1 cable tranny. Stage 2 cutch and lightweight flywheel installed with swap. Was installed by previous owner who barely drove it 1500 miles I've probably added on about 4000 miles. Sometimes takes a few key turns if dead cold, could be grounding issue or starter but always starts. Motor pulls strong and runs good. Tranny shifts good with no grinds. There is an intake (AEM swap style), a ractive header and pretty much straight through exhaust out to a chrome 4" tip. The exhaust does have a leak so the car is loud if you're on the throttle. No type of cat so you'll need a new setup to legally pass inspection anyway. Also not a big deal but I thought I'd mention that it has 3 studs for both driver side wheels, doesn't really matter, easy fix.
Suspension:
The car has tokico blue shocks with neuspeed lowering springs for the perfect drop on the LS meshes with 205/50R15 Kuhmo Ecsta SPT tires on them. This wheel/tire/susp. combo make for a good ride with excelent handling. Just going on mountain passes with a few friends you can get the rear to slide out while the front still grip making fast corners fun. At the limit it is almost like oversteer. It also has inetgra front brakes with upgraded pads and crossdrilled/slotted rotors for better braking. All parts listed here have roughly 5-6k miles on them .
Parts included with the car:
New weatherstripping for front windshield
New front driver fender
New front filler piece (portion between bumper and hood)
New heat reducing intake manifold gasket, small hp increase
Estimated cost to reprodouce this car:
Decent stripped EF shell>500-600
Obd0 b16 full swap>1400-1500 shipped
Clutch+ flywheel>500-600
Susp setup>650-750
Wheel+tire combo>600
Total cost would be about about 3600-4200 not including labor.
Price dropped, need cash. $2600 obo how it sits/$2300 obo without rims+tires.
