Title: Clear

I bought this car as a weekend warrior/track car with the intent of having another daily driver. Due to current circumstances, this is the only car I have and I have been using it as a daily driver. It accomplishes the task just fine, but it isn't a comfortable/realistic daily driver without a back seat and having racing seats and a roll cage. I make several trips from Durham to Hickory, NC in it and it's just not the best for hauling me, my g/f, and luggage/groceries/etc. Also, since I live in an apartment I don't have a garage or anywhere to work on it anymore. Since it's my only car right now, I would rather trade because I would have to try to make other arrangements so that I would have something else to drive.

Over $12k in parts alone.. not including any labor
Engine:
K20a2 RSX-S engine w/ ~38,000 miles

AEM EMS 30-1070 (RLZ tuned 185whp 130wtq on their dynapack (206whp on BRMS portable dyno on a 95-100 degree day) Should be ~210-215whp on any dynojet in the right conditions
I was offered a sponsorship to retune the car for $200 and a discount on all parts from a shop in SC that I will discuss with the buyer/trader; the shop said from my dyno sheet that I still have a lot of power to be made through the entire powerband with more in depth tuning
Hybrid Racing Wiring Harness
Koyo Radiator w/ Greddy Cap

Transmission
K20A2 6 Speed with Quaife LSD (no grinds or pop outs, probably could use a fluid change just to be on the safe side since I haven't changed it since I got the car)
OEM Flywheel & Clutch (great for daily driving and the little racing I've done so far, no slipping)
I also have a 4.9 Final Drive I can include.

Interior:
Buddy Club P1 seats / MemoryFab super low rails

Front brakes: Axis metal master and brembo blanks

I know there's more suspension stuff that I'm leaving out

The Good:
-The engine & all the mods. It's a K-Swap with LSD. The car is fast and handles amazingly with the roll cage and all of the suspension mods.
-On the interstate I normally get around 35 mpg.
-The car has been my daily driver so it hasn't been abused. The most abuse it's taken was when it was getting dynoed and the 4 cars that I have raced:
1. 04 GTO- Won
2. E46 M3- Won
3. S2000- It was over by the end of first gear- Won
4.New E92 V8 M3- Raced from 0-80mph- Lost by 1 car
-The previous owner built the car when K swaps were first starting to be the "thing" and it mostly sat in his garage because he had a E46 M3 and a M6.

Quick 20-80mph run.. little traction and shifted to 3rd early, but you get the idea (click on video to play)


The Bad, I'm going to be as honest as possible and list everything so I don't waste anyone's time or money, plus I'm very picky when it comes to my car.

Most of "The Bad" is exterior cosmetics:
All of these can be seen in the pictures, as they were already like this when I bought the car.
-Will need paint at some point, the paint is fading as it is 16 years old (mainly on roof and back bumper). There are some light scratches on the passenger's side door and other scratches and paint chips here and there.
-There is a dent/paint chip on the passenger side door about the size of a penny. It is more that the paint is chipped off rather than that there is a dent.
-Around the bottom of the driver's side door handle, the paint is chipped off and it is dented along the bottom. More of rough surface dents, not really dented in much.
-There is a dent in the driver's side rear quarter panel in front of the wheel. The dent isn't that bad and it isn't too deep, it looks like it could easily be popped out. The paint isn't messed up at all.
-Needs a new front lip, car is lowered a little too much and the lipped is cracked really bad. Blue Ridge Motorsports almost ripped it off on their dyno.
-Side skirts- I just don't like them, it needs stock.
-Hood needs to be adjusted, there's a gap on the passenger side.
-The windshield has 2 small chips in it (no lines or cracks).

Misc.:
-The IACV needs to be installed. It didn't come with one when I purchased it (just a block off plate). I bought one and haven't had the chance to install it. It idles fine once the engine starts to warm up, just idles low when the engine is cold and first starts. Let the engine warm up for a minute or two and you're ready to go.


I don't really want to get rid of it, but it's not a realistic daily driver for me right now and I don't have a garage or anywhere to work on the car right now.

Sorry for posting a book, I just wanted to make sure I listed as much as possible and I probably still forgot some things. Now for the pics:

Additional pictures, videos, and info can be found here on my personal page and more recent pictures specifically of "bad" things can be seen in my photobucket: http://www.carolinahondas.com/member...-na_k_ftw.html & http://s114.photobucket.com/albums/n...streetracerx7/

When I bought it (pics show old hood):





Same day I bought it, picture just taken with my phone.


Now after some modifications (sorry for the bad quality, my digital camera broke):

 

Cliff Notes Version:
-A tuned, K20 swapped EJ1 with tons of mods, pulls hard, handles amazing.
-Prefer to trade.
-Needs: new paint, minor body work for small dents, new lip, hood needs adjusted, IACV needs to be installed, and 2 middle rubber exhaust hangers need replaced. Windshield has 2 small chips.

I just checked them sorry, I'm not interested, it's nice, I'm just not a fan of ek hatches.

 

Thanks, the paint is decent, it's great in some places and scratched and faded in others. Most of the fading and scratches are on the roof, some scratches on both doors, and the back bumper is faded to almost a reddish pink.

That is one of the cleanest stock civics I've ever seen. If you weren't so far away and could add a few thousand on top I would definitely do it.
