540 dollars in a glove box, and a rear tie bar for my lil piece

 

I founf a dog once.....They called him a junk yard dog.... He wasnt very nice...... He ate my hand. I now fear junkyards!!!!!! Oh and I also found an Si cluster for my old ef and the guy gave it to me for free.

Damn!!!! That is lucky man!

 

Great stuff guys!

I'm going to the yard tomorrow just to check it out and I'm trying to think of stuff look for.

 

turbos for $40, and i know where a CRX sits with a ZC in it right now...pretty nasty front end collision though and the drivers mount location on the block is broken.

 

a non grinding hydro ls tranny for 125 bucks

 

a yellow ITR shell. it had been stripped of everything and dropped off at the junkyard by some guy. i was thinkin about taking the washer fluid reservoir cap so i could say "i've got a real type r washer fluid reservoir cap on my car", but then i came to my senses and walked away. seriously though, the best thing i've found so far was my gsr/si front strut bar for $25

 

SBC 400cid for next to nothing, it was a #511 casting code also
I made quite a potent powerplant during my old V8 days. Not much for Civic stuff, you can't really find much around my area. I guess the best thing I found was an optional audio console.

my '95's BOMZ Racing Muffler, a Tach, from autometer, My '95's Volk Racing wheels, (got them for $90), a set of projector headlights, 2 spare tires, 2 sony Xplod speakers, a Neuspeed sway bar, and $8 in a $5 bill and change, I go to the junk yard alot.

 

300 issues of playboy that were 30 years old

ls engine 150$
rear disk brakes for hatch 25$
airbag 0$
playboy priceless

 

i got an ex armrest for 5 bucks. i haven't spent too much time digging in junkyards, but my friend got a aem cai for his dx for 20 bucks and a lx cluster for 20. you can find some pretty good deals, especially if the guys there don't know the demand for certain honda parts.

 

integra skunk2 coilovers+stock shocks for 115

 

gsr sway bar
gsr seats with missing headrests (took some civic ones) with one small tear on driver side
optional arm rest for 10 bucks...

 

I can honestly say I have never found anything real cool. I guess my best junkyard find was an almost mint condition OEM EG front lip. But other than that, I usually just find what I am looking for and nothing really exciting... I wish I was the guy that found $540!

 

At the place i usually go they hold thier honda parts like thier platinum, half the time they want more for the parts than they cost new.

 

rear speaker panels and brackets for my hatchback...$10.00

 

Rear disc brakes off a gs-r for my hatch. The block was still in there too, but I didn't have enough money on me at the time.
