I'm guessing Tony Stark (the guy who plays a good Robert Downey Jr) owns this. Any of you guys know about this?

 

red/gold is a nice combo. I think you ment robert downey jr plays tony stark, not the other way around. lol

 

No kidding, reminds me of McDonalds and Iron Man. Another good combo would be a forestish green and gold. I passed a 5th gen prelude today on my way home. My jaw dropped.
no no. i'm sure Tony Stark plays a pretty good Robert Downey Jr.

 

I found that CR-V for sale on Craigslist for the Atlanta area. Seller wants $10,000.

 

^ lol wat?!

90's honda prices are totally out of control.

EDIT: notice the dyno graph... engine timing fail? dyno quirk? automatic transmission? what in god's name...

 

I wish I'd have screen shot the ad. He basically said that "stock ones in decent shape go for $7,000.00, so this price is fair..."

From a "try and build one like this for the money" standpoint he might have a point, but you never get what you put into your builds when you sell them.

 

oh lord. well.. more power to him i suppose. can't imagine the market pool for a used, attention-grabbing, sub 200hp 'sport' suv is a very large one lol.

 

I'm actually wanting a properly lowered CR-V to replace my 2011 Fit. I really liked the LOOK of this one until I saw the gold engine bay. Then came the price - good luck with that.

BTW it is an auto running a chipped OBD1 ECU and as the seller put it a 'Integra trans computer with step down."

 

crv w/ stock gsr swap (tuned? smh)+rear drums+red and gold theme=iron can

 

I <3 Fit's. A LOT. I cant wait until they come down in price to something i can afford.

 

Ah, I have a Fit too, well my mom does and it's basically like a little star wars missile pod or something. Aircon circulates very well since it's so small compared to the poor 90's CRV and it's rotting system and bad circulation.
bought it for $6,600 :D

You didn't like the gold engine bay?
If I were the owner, I would've converted it to manual before doing any of that stuff.... but to each his own.

 

THIS i would absolutely LOVE to see. i can't imagine the wiring. just hours of sitting with chassis wiring manuals, running one at a time.

i've only seen a handful of integra auto trans swaps attempted, heard of even fewer to be finished, and i've absolutely never actually seen one move under it's own power.

but the auto does explain why his dyno graph is all over and max torque is at 158lbs lol

 

Well two things:

1. My fit is for sale - see classifieds LOL (is $16,250 affordable for being like-new?)

2. I agree about auto B series swaps. My old shop attempted one into an EK, and it was a freaking NIGHTMARE. I don't believe we EVER got the auto shifting correctly. Owner finally got a 5-speed, which made the swap run normally.

The listing on CL is deleted, or else I'd have linked it.

 

Good luck with the sale!

If I were in the market for a new car.. a used fit would be near top of my list. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
