this car has been well taken care of and can be vouched for by many people

Not sure what to look for when buying a Honda so any tips will help.

Thanks!

 

yeah i like it bro.

 

sounds good to me. those dyno numbers seem a little low for that build tho..

 

I was thinking those numbers were low to? But I dont know what that engine had stock so.

He did say the header is damaged and that it should easily get 190whp with a new one. It got banged up because the car is low.

Any parts in there that arn't good?

The guy was a Nissan mechanic and now is an aircraft mechanic so he does know how to build.

He was telling me that the car is loud and I you have to watch for cops. I was on the phone with him while driving and I could hear it lol.

He also said it might not pass emitions.

 

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

Might not? It is blatantly illegal. Does a head swap from a different engine in not legal on any pollution controlled vehicle in the US.

Of course, if you live in a state that doesn't actually check for such things, its not a concern.

 

Is that why lol because its hybird? So theres no chance of fixing that...

I live in Canada.

 

Bump any more help. I

 

How much is he wanting for it?

 

asking 7500 but said he doesnt want to go lower then 6500 canadian

 

sounds great but is there a hole in the header or what?

 

I think its just bent. I really like this car. Just have to raise it a bit.

Are these platforms good for raceing. I'm sure its built a lot better then my made in Mexico Spec-V. Awsome preformance but not so high in Quality.

Where are these 2000 SiR Civic's built?

 

Bump.

he might come buy tomorrow. What should I look for in the car
