SOLD

1988 CRX DX

I'm selling my setup, preferably with the crx although the rear quarters are starting to show rust (again) through the 2 year old paint. It still looks great and gets a lot of looks but I'll have more pics up shortly. I'm getting married in the spring and my fiancee and I need a more practical vehicle...unfortunately!

This car really is a D-series jackpot, and I'd like to sell it complete...meaning you drive it away and do what you wish with it or its parts. Engine is always changed with Mobil 1 tri-synth and Honda filters, ALWAYS! Just did last weekend actually.

It's inspected through May '07.

This engine is a b18C5 in a d16's body.

Let me know.

Thanks!

Oh and this engine leaks no oil, and burns ~1/2 quart between 3,000 mile changes, always has. I consider this normal for the compression and catchcan setup. Still solid compression, good gas mileage and power...like the day I got it tuned.

Ignore the red wire hanging from under the dash, that's for my headlight buzzer that I was removing.

Thanks for the bump man!

Thanks man! I don't want to see it go but it's not much of a family car hehe. I'm hoping another d-series lover will take advantage of this opportunity...I wish somebody was selling this back when I was building!

 

how much?

 

I've gotten an offer for $3,000 but haven't seen the money yet. Considering everything that went into it, the dyno numbers, and streetability it's a steal for that price.

 

oman 3gs is a fuggin steal.

Yep, still for sale...last offer fell through.

Good quesiton, I'm not too familiar with NY's emmissions laws but PA's inspection is rather tough (i think). I've been having it pass legally... A local tuner takes it to a shop and tunes it to pass on the dyno. Advances the timing and drops the fuel pressure. Checks everything else over, tires, brakes, etc.. Then he adjusts the tune back before leaving.

Thanks,
Vince

 

Nice Build and CRX

Thanks man! Bump for a good home for this build...

 

would you just sell the motor?

 

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by JDMCHOP &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">would you just sell the motor?</TD></TR></TABLE>

No, I want the someone to drive it away. For $3,000 you could buy everything, pull the engine and swap in a stock d16 for cheap and sell the crx for $2000. I just don't have the time to pull the engine or deal with a shell.

 

UP!!! This thing needs a good home!

Ohh yeah, and did I mention I have a 96-00 civic helms manual, and all the boxes/manuals for the head unit, speakers, 4-channel amp, Power FC and commander? They come with the car...

New plugs and oil changed with mobil1 synth and honda filter 500 miles ago, valve lash checked and adjusted 3 months ago...

Just some more info

 

bump because I miss my rex. shame your not closer
