Default FS CT: Red 1997 Civic EX Coupe - built motor - turbo - $4500

Well, its time to move on to bigger and better things (LS1) so i need to sell a few of my cars to fund the new one. This is my Daily driver, its as reliable as anything ive ever owned. the car starts right up every time, whether its 100 degrees out or 0. im going to be straight forward and 100% honest about everything. im not trying to hide anything like alot of people do.

The car has all Options being its an EX. P/S, A/C, Cruise, P/W, P/L, Power Sunroof. its lowered on Neuspeed race springs, sitting on bronze rota C8's with yokohama avid H4's with decent tread. car is awesome in the snow. it has a Golden eagle tow hook on the back. other then that its stock on the outside.

Body is in decent shape but it does have some dings and scratches like any 11 year old car with 135K on the body. the passenger fender is dented up by the door and the door is bent in a little at the fender seam from hitting the fender. i got the car like this and assume it was due to a misaligned fender. the fender just needs to be replaced and the door is an easy fix. other then that the body is pretty straight.

Here are a list of the known problems with the car:

The driver window track is worn out and needs to be replaced, the window goes down but wont go back up by itself it needs to be helped because it goes up crooked.

The passenger window goes up and down really slow. i think it might just need to be greased but im not sure.

The front tires could use a balancing as they vibrate going down the highway.

the car is tough to get in second gear when you shift from redline in first, sometimes it goes, sometimes it doesnt. ive changed the tranny 3 times thinking it was the problem and the most recent tranny was in a car my friend was driving prior to me installing so i ruled it down to needing stiffer mounts, or a slave/master problem. the car will shift fine at anything under 7K and all the other gears work fine at redline.

The A/C needs a new tensioner pulley and a belt installed to be functional, i never got around to putting a new belt on it after i put th enew motor in. the A/C system blew cold before i installed the turbo setup.

Heres what the car has in it.

Engine

D16Z6
Eagle rods
Vitara pistons
ACL bearings
New valve seals
Lapped valves
Y8 IM + TB
MLS HG
ARP headstuds
Precision 550CC injectors
Walbro Fuel pump
Rywire OBD2a-OBD1 conversion harness
Socketed P28 street tuned on crome

Drivetrain

DX tranny
XTD stage 4 clutch
brand new stock flywheel (not a resurface)

Turbo setup

A/C compatible log
13G turbo
Stainless 2.5" DP
ebay 38mm wastegate
Stainless Dumptube
2.5" charge pipes
Knockoff greddy RS BOV
CCA 6" FMIC painted black for stealth/anti thief
silicone couplers + t bolts
turbo smart MBC
AEM 2 1/4" catless exhaust (very quiet)

Car made 282WHP at 20 psi on xenocrons dyno. With all that said my asking price is $4500 OBO which i think is reasonable, feel free to make an offer but down bother low balling because i have a set lowest price. if i get asking price for the car i will throw in the ebay 57 trim i bought for it and i will build a new A/C log manifold and DP for the turbo so you can make it a 350+ HP daily.
