Sold - Thanks!


This is posted in the main Vehicles For Sale forum as well: http://www.hondamarketplace.com/show....php?t=2815991

Purchased this in February from dkboyny11 and decided it wasn't what I wanted. Original sale thread with pics here: http://www.hondamarketplace.com/show....php?t=2709877

I paid $2500 for it, bought over $1000 in parts and installed some of them. The rest come with.

The good:
- It now has Tein HA's w/ KYB GR-2's installed all around. The rears were put on after I stopped driving it and have less than a mile on them, the fronts have about 2-3000miles.
- When I installed the shocks/springs I also put in new top hats/mounts.
- Brand new weather stripping/window trim as i was tired of air leaking in and highway noise (Never leaked any rain, just a bit of air at high speeds). The new trim fits perfectly and the windows sit snug against them.
- I replaced the fuel filter shortly after I bought it as well.
- I don't think dkboyny11 mentioned in his sale post that it has HID's installed and they are not an obnoxious purple, they are a slightly blue-white and work great - if he mentioned it and I missed it, sorry I'm getting old

Parts included:
- new timing belt
- all new accessory belts
- water pump
- upper and lower radiator hoses
- a COMPLETE set of Energy Suspension Hyper-Flex bushings including motor mounts
- enough synthetic oil and filter to do an oil change. (It has had the oil changed recently but could use it again soon I'm sure.)
- 4-2-1 header I bought from 89flaredhatch for it that you'll need some gasket material for
- Oil Pan Gasket (Was going to pull the pan when i ran a bottle of motor flush through it)
- bottle of motor flush (works great, used it on my BMW before it was stolen)
- Transmission Fluid to change it
- New Drain plugs for the Oil Pan and Transmission

The bad:
- While it sits in mostly the same condition as when i bought it, it has a new dent it received from being lowered onto a jack improperly when the front suspension was changed.
- Additionally the passenger rear rotor is slightly warped and is causing a rubbing noise. It will need replacement but the pads all have plenty of meat left on them.
- It looks like it sits a little higher in the rear than the front, but that may be because the rear suspension has not had a chance to settle. As I stated there is less than 1 mile on the rears.
- very small rust spot on trunk/hatch (See pic)
- rust on rear fenders (Looks worse than it is in those pics)


Overall, it runs well, I bought all these parts as preventative maintenance as I planned on putting alot of miles on it and driving it for a long while. As my plans have changed, I have a new car and I don't have the time to install the parts and address these issues but for the most part with a little TLC its an awesome care with low miles for its age.

I was asking $3,000 obo which i think is fair based on what i have into it. Now lowered to $2000 because I want it gone - price is FIRM. My pictures are below and you can view the original sale link for more. I will have it washed before its sold. Feel free to ask any questions and thanks for looking!!

Figured out the noise. Definitely the rear rotor. Started out by just jacking the passenger side up and spinning the wheels. The front made no noise while the back did. Took the wheel off and the rotor appear to be warped so i took the caliper off and spun the wheel again. Could visibly see the rotor was slightly warped, and there was no noise coming from the bearing. The noise is the rotor rubbing against the brake pads.

On a weird side note, my brake lights are stuck on and I've had to remove the fuse to prevent the battery from draining (Threw it on the battery charger overnight last night to make sure it has a full charge). I don't remember this happening from when i was driving it but it was definitely doing it before i took the wheel and caliper off etc. Any idea's?

ill give ya $1500 cash on steelies..

 

I really don't want to part it out whatsoever and have no other wheels for it. $1500 is less than half of what I paid for it plus parts only 6 months ago. I feel its more than fair at $2500 but I'm willing to negotiate a little. Thanks for the offer though, at least i know someone's reading this
