Default 95 Civic EX coupe W/ LS Turbo Swap (white) [PA]

Willing to part out for best reasonable offers...

MY FATHER SUFFERED A MASSIVE BRAIN HEMORRHAGE AND DID NOT PULL THROUGH. I AM LOOKING TO MOVE THIS AND AM LOWERING THE PRICE FROM $4500 -> $3300 IN HOPES TO MOVE THIS QUICKLY. I HAVE BIGGER MATTERS AT HAND CURRENTLY AND WOULD LIKE THIS LOOSE END CLEANED UP. THANK YOU.

$2800 without OZ wheels...


Up for sale is my 1995 Civic EX Coupe with a 98 Integra LS turbo swap. I acquired this car from a local kid who blew up the transmission, and it had some other mechanical issues, with hopes of making a cool somewhat quick commuter. It is white with a gray interior, and is in need of some paint. The front hood is chipped pretty good, they hacked up the front bumper in order to fit a front mount intercooler that was held in with zip ties (it now has a Greedy front mount and I welded brackets onto it to mount to the bumper beam), and the left fender is pretty dented. However neither of those things effect how it drives. It has projector headlights and rear red and white lights and all lights function.
It had a leaking and blown power rack along with torn lower control arm bushings when I got it so I replaced the lower control arms and installed a non-power steering rack for simplicity. It also had seized rear calipers and cut ABS wires, so I got new rear calipers with pads, and installed new rear ABS wires.
Continuing on as I stated this car had a blown transmission and clutch assembly. So the transmission was rebuilt, it has new axle seals, main bearings and an input shaft bearing along with new syncros and a new main shaft with AMSOIL 75-90 synthetic fluid in it. I installed an Exedy clutch with an ITR flywheel. I also installed new axles left and right at that time. For suspension the car is sitting on Tokico blue shocks with Eibach lowering springs (yellow). It also has adjustable upper front control arms. Also installed new coolant and a new fan thermo switch. Compression test of the car yielded numbers of 150-160 per cylinder. I can retest for exact numbers if needed.
On to the motor. I put together a turbo system using Vibrant products. I have a stainless steel log manifold using schedule 10 tubing and is flanged for a T3. It is currently rocking an ebay special T3 style turbo that came with the car. I used Parker fittings to tap into the block for an oil feed line, then used a Vibrant -4 oil feed line. The Parker fitting has an extra hole, which is currently plugged, for an oil pressure gauge if one would ever desire. The wastegate is a 38mm and has a new Tial wastegate with a 4-5 psi spring. There is a custom stainless steel dumptube off of that and a custom 3 inch stainless steel downpipe that is V banded to a high-flow 3 inch catalytic converter. That then connects to a 3 inch stainless exhaust system utilizing a Magnaflow muffler and a Remflex gasket on the axle back. The oil return line is a all quality Earls Fittings and lines...only issue there is I was lazy and didn't drop the pan to check the previous owners welds on the oil return fitting in the oil pan and it tends to seep oil (simple fix, just out of time). The turbo is equiped with a NEW K&N filter that fits perfectly on the side with no rubbing or cutting. The intercooler tubing came with the car, it is stainless steel and had to be modded slightly to work. I added a Tial 50mm BOV and powder coated the pipes black for a cleaner look and added some T-bolt clamps as well. All vacuum line is Vibrant silicone line, and connect to a Vibrant black vacuum black on the fire wall. The car is rolling on some black OZ crono HT wheels 15 x 7 with some Falken Azenis tires. The car has been newly aligned, is inspected until September, and has never been tuned. It currently is running just on WG pressure. The interior is intact, and fairly clean with a set of Knock-Off Mugen Racing seats with blue generic harnesses...both came with the car. The airbag light has been on since I got the car due to the fact the combo switch was installed upside down and wired wrong for some reason and the airbag wires were cut. I fixed the combo switch and combo switch wiring, but planned on getting a steering wheel without an airbag and never did. Lastly I have an autometer Cobalt Boost gauge that isn't installed yet...but will be included Car runs and drives just needs a new home and someone to put some finishing touches on the exterior. A lot of time and money has gone into this car, and I am selling it only because my wife is expecting our second child in June and she would really like an SUV, so I plan on selling this to try and accomplish that.

PS: Correction to last posting I stated the sunroof was stuck today it closed...so I would say it is sticking, but I have a completely perfect assembly that will be going with the car.

Thanks for looking

As for selling the turbo system the offer would have to be pretty good for me to want to remove and undo everything I just did...plus I would have to source all NA parts and exhaust...

As for the blacked out intercooler... Thanks for the bump and kind words Everything turned out nicely, just need to move it and move on.

This weekend my Father suffered a massive brain hemorrhage stemming from a fall earlier in the week. He isn't doing to well and I have placed this on eBay with the hopes of it selling quicker. My wife is due at the end of June with our second child and now this...I seriously don't have the time or resources to finish this project the way I would have hoped, but have been as detailed and honest as possible. More pics and details on eBay...if seriously interested or would like to see it please email me for a quicker response. Thanks, Jim
