<font size = 14> I have started a new thread entitled "TRADE or BUY my 1992 Civic CX hybrid w/ low miles (updated info/pics)"....should be easier to read and has all pics on the main page.</font>

This is a modified post w/ more information

I bought the car off of a H-T.com member, "Mike K" last June off of the boards. He worked at Acura in Naples, FL and had done a lot of great mods. You will see that he purchased a lot of parts new from Acura, which is one reason this car is so nice, cause it is almost new (great mileage). I have also done some things to the car, suspension work and weight reduction mainly to make it even faster (check out the weight savings list a few posts down…great, rare info to have for future reference). Anyway, check out all of the information...

Just got back from DMV, and they told me that since I paid the registration already (last June) that whoever buys the car (and is in CA) will have the money go towards their registration ($284 worth)!

<u>Smog Information:</u>
First and foremost, this car will NOT pass CA smog. I have talked with DMV and the Bureau of Auto Repair and the only option is to:
Continue to get 2 month extentions on registrations (as good as your excuses are)
Fix the existing issues (I will provide my smog document from the CA referee)
Have a "hook-up" that can get you the smog certificate
Swap a stock motor into the car, smog it, then swap the SI/ITR motor back in
Now, if you can do this great. OR if you are out of state, you are probably ok too. So please take this into consideration first.

<u>Reason for Selling:</u>
I don't want to deal with smog (call me lazy). Don't/Won't have the time to invest at the trac or upgrade like I had hoped. Have received 2 speeding tickets since I have had this car (after my record finally cleared up), and don't want the temptation to beat down every car on the road (thus, receiving more).

<u>Selling/Trading Information:</u>
I will sell the car (everything on the list) for $9,200 OBO
I will sell the car (without the Zeal s6's and camber kits = $2,100 new) for $8,000 OBO
· I might even sell without the CF hood, lightweight battery, or wheels for a further savings. E-mail me if this is of interest to you.
I will trade the car, with cash for almost any model (though, if the car sucks, it better be a majority cash)
I will trade the car straight accross OR my car and my money (up to $2,000) for your car...
· cars I would be interesed in are the following:
· 1994+ Acura Integra
· 1992+ Honda Prelude (prefer 1997+)

I have not run it at the track personally, here is what the previous owner, Mike K, said “Not sure about 1/4 miles, but it runs consistent 9.1's in the 1/8th mile, with my best being a 9.02@80.1mph. I got a 2.20 60ft that run.” “So it's a low low 14 second car, high 13s with a better, and lighter driver. (I am 230lbs, so the hatch is back to stock wieght with me in it, LOL)”

So…the car weighed 2194lbs at that point…it now weighs 2020lbs. (see other post) Plus, take the difference of your weight and his (230lbs) and you have a decent depiction of what it may run. My guess would be mid-13’s depending on driver and weight.

E-mail me at Nylander@sbcglobal.net with ANY questions or offers (of if you want my phone number to talk instead). Thank you very much for your time, and sorry for the long post (though I had no choice!).

If you want specific pics, e-mail me. Sorry the car is dirty, but it rains too much to wash it!








note: hood needs to be re-adjusted. Also, the bars connecting the hood pins and the frame are not on (which would snug it as well).

Look at the beautiful "6" in the window...lol. And that mammoth Apexi N1 exhaust!

HX rims wish they were as light, wide and unique as these! Also, look at the lack of a passenger mirror...uniqueness everywhere!

Why do people insist on using Geoshitties?

 

sorry about that, just fixed the links.

 

Just curious to about how much you want for the car.
-thanx-

 

oh, I guess I should explain the front tires/rims too. My old tires are worn down, so those are my temps. That is why I said teh 185/60's are brand new, cause they are NEW...lol, being shipped to me now. Just wanted to clear that up early...

 

there is some confusion as to what I actually added in the 10 months I owned the car, all to add $4500. I added the following, all new unless otherwise stated:

Zeal S6 alu. suspension = $1800
F.I. CF hood = $400 (bought used)
Miata Rims/tires = $550 (bought used)
F/R Camber = $300
Sparco's + alu. mounts = $750
Type-1 Battery = $150
ITR rear sway + Beaks = $150 (sway was used)
ITR LCAs = $50 (bought used)
Carsound Cat = $150
Spoon Rep. mirrors = $150
Removable steering wheel = $250

ahhh that car is sooo clean. if i had a little more money then i would get that in a second. goodluck on selling it

 

then get a little more money!

 

No one? Come on guys, this car has very low miles, is lighter than most cars and has some great parts...

 

how much?

 

are u in cali?

 

Yes, in northern CA....about an hour north of Sacramento.

 

shipping costs can be split....

 

ttt...come on guys, only a few offers so far...

 

trades???

you know you want speed, and handling in one package...so where's the offers?

200hp all motor, yet only a 1.6L in an EH!! Just like a stock SI block, only faster...also, allowing you can handle due to its smaller size/weight (not to mention the reduced weight and Zeal s6's....or maybe the ITR sway anyone?)

 

Just had the new tires put on the Miata rims for the front...

I'll be posting new pics of the car with all 4 rims, and clean when the wether clears up...

 

I'll step out on a limb and give this a try.... I have a 92 Prelude S, AEM CAI, neuspeed springs, forbidden true short shifter, spoon front and rear STB's, fiber images carbon hood, fiberglass Z3 fenders, JDM 1-piece blk housing headlights, shaved emblems/anttena, brand new electron blue paint, no dings/dents, or anything, perfect inside and out, kinda slow, runs high 15's on a good day, 160k miles but runs perfect, up-to-date maintance, blah blah, if you are interested in a trade + whatever amount of cash you want let me know.

 

Ty for the reply. Sounds pretty nice, I just might be. Would you be able to provide me with pics? What color is the car? Rims? anyway, get back to me...once I get all of the info, I'll let you know....

That is a pic from fairly recently but it is without the springs on, also those wheels are painted gunmetal now, looks MUCH better. I dont know what type of wheels they are, but they are 14x6 and VERY light weight, tires kinda suck though, pretty tall profile as you can see... And it is electron blue pearl as you can see... There are other mods that I will think of if I go through my reciepts, like kyokugen black lugnuts and a bunch of little stuff like that... Let me know if you want more info... Thanks

 

Oh yeah that pic doesnt have the front lip on...its just the stock lip but it makes the car look a lot better. Also that pic only works when my friends computer is on since it is hosted there...

EDIT: the front bumber also wasnt bolted on all the way in that pic, it lines up perfect and is currently in place... I will keep thinking of little stuff like this...

 

hmm...is there any way you can get a current pic? I would like to see it lowered, and with the colored rims, lip, etc. Maybe you can just email me the pic to make it easier than hosting it? LMK.
