Okay I have a 92 civic cx hatch with the following mods..

D16z6 Engine w/ Si tranny
-Ported and polished head
-comp cam 59300 cam
-new valve job
-had the ridge taken out of block and re-honed

-micropolished crank
-balanced
-light weight flywheel
-stage 2 race clutch
-new 02 sensor
-new water pump / timing belt
-new plugs, wires, distributor, distributor cap, and button
-brand new rotors and pads in the front, and brand new drums and hardware in the rear

-all the honda rust has been cut out and bondo'ed
-comes with a high flow fuel rail and 440cc injectors
-new tires all the way around with fresh alignment
-Carbon fiber hood
now for a list of the bad:
-it is throwing 4 cel codes (egr system, electronic air control valve, fuel injector, and electrical load detector)
-there is a pretty big rip in the drivers side seat (all other seats are spotless)
-idles high because of iacv

AND its in primer.

And some guy wants to trade me his 98 Integra gsr for it. But the catch is, his car has 218,xxx miles on the engine and mine has 500. His has a straight pipe w/ ractive muffler, aem short ram intake, and apexi vafc. Its red w/ gsr blades.

Would you trade for it? I'm still debating lol.

 

i think i would trade and just rebuilt the engine or replace it with something better

 

That's what I was thinkin lol. But i'm kinda attached to my hatch

 

i hear you but the way i look at things is that,,ill be moving up a couple of years ,,so basically that teg done up right is worth a little more $$$

 

anyone else? what would you do.

 

does it still have a GSR motor in it ive seen quite a few being sold with LS motors in them.

 

yes it does.

 

You spent a lot on the hatch. If that doesn't matter and you want a more comfortable, slightly newer car then go for it. I have a b20 EG and I would trade. The GSR chassis would be fun to work on too.

 

I traded my 87 lude that I paid $1500 for, for the hatch lol like it is now.

 

its hard to come by clean hatches in my area! i love my hatch too much to trade... id say its a down grade in a way... like sicboxr said if you want something newer go for it...

 

Anyone else? but thanks for your opinion I still haven't decided.

 

trade it! at least it's a GS-R.

 

I would trade it

 

I'm about to lol. But do you think there is some kind of catch to it, a 98 gsr for a 92 hatch in primer? a dual over head cam for a single?

i would do it...of course im kinda sick of my hatch. lol and it is a gsr and not an ls. plus it almost gives me a hard on when you said "red with gsr blades"...that would be nice. and it might have bad rings or something...but hey it is a gsr...rebuild it and have fun. IMO go for it.

 

Now your making me want to do it lol. I still have to go pay the taxes on my hatch tomorrow first. I was hoping to finish the turbo build but oh well. It has a ractive exhaust, whatever that is. But I only seen a side view pic of the car.

Anywho, what pistons, and or rings would you go with on it? I have vitaras in my hatch but I was going for turbo with it.

 

if your just gonna go n/a i would just put the factory spec pistons in it. maybe itr pistons....but im not sure. lol and do honda rings. i have heard that those are the best.

 

Okay i'll do that. but does anyone know if you have to have insurance on a car before you pay the taxes? B/c I'm only 16 and don't have insurance and I need to get the title in my name to trade it.

 

anyone?

 

wait, you don't have insurance?

 

Not sure about the insurance thing, but i would trade for the GSR .

 

i pm'd you. (4doorcivic9)

 

Keep the hatch

 

Hmmmmi sold my 2000 LS to buy my 92 EG GSR. I love Eg's Id say stick with the Hatchback..

 

but he has a boosted z6 hatch for a stock gsr on blades...i would personally do it. the integra sounds like it sounds good. post up pics and we can decide for sure.
