This is seriously depressing. Heh, so much time and money have went into this car. Seriously, I spent an entire year devoted to this car. Everything on this car is no nonsense.
This was a solid 11 second car.
It put 342 hp at only 12.5 psi from the T3/T4. With bigger injectors, little bit more boost and tuning. Easy 425 whp on pump gas.
It was daily driven to and from work/class. And on the new motor/set up I've put only about 4,000 miles.
The car itself has 145,000 (hard to keep track since I keep changing gauge clusters).
The car is currently driveable, but I wouldn't recommend it, as you would risk damaging the $1100 RS Sleeves. If you live within 100 miles I can tow it to your house for free, with AAA.

Exterior:
White paint is in pretty good condition. A few dents here and there, but overall ok. The front bumper has seen better days, but i bought it like that, and never got around to getting a new one. It's definitely not a show car though. Since I never paid too much to the car's appearance.

Reasons for selling? I'm going to be buyinga new car soon. One with AC. And my priorities have totaly changed. I just need to get out of the scene for a while I think.

Reason for selling so cheap? I don't have the $ to keep up with this car. With the recent problem, I can't afford to fix it

It seems as if cylinder #4 has lost compression. Cause? Detonation. The cylinder walls are still 100% perfect.
You can either rebuild the current block for a good price.
Or build another block for it.
Either way, you have yourself an 11 second street driven beast, for under 10g's after the build.
I can source you a spare B16 or B18C block if the price is right.
I can also recommend you to a shop who does excellent work.


Seriously this car is a ******* bargain. If you stopped and added up everything I've done to the car. It would be extremely depressing.

I have many extra parts, that I wouldn't mind throwing in if the price was right.

8500
I'm pretty ******* firm on the price. The turbo set up and suspension cost me this alone.












































I'm located in Southern California.

Ventura/Los Angeles area.

30 miles north of LA.

I just don't have the time or motivation in me to finish the little guy. School and work own me.
I really don't want to part it out, because I don't have a garage or anywhere to store these things anymore.

My e-mail is FIVEXZERO@AOL.COM
IM me, e-mail me, reply here. It all works.

my cell is: (805)231-9152







I can have the car towed within 100 miles for no charge, courtesy of AAA.

Nice set up. Mind trading for a stock car w/ AC and power steering plus you give me a little cash on top of the trade? I have a mercedez benz 96 c class....

Sorry, if I had extra cash right now, I'd be able to keep the car.

thanks man

But overall car looks tight though. But I have one question, where is the intercooler? Did you spray paint it black or does it not have one? Bump for that quik car.

Yeah. I masked off the fins, and sprayed a few light coats of black over the intercooler. Did wonders.

Living in Southern California, it's not something you want to show off.

 

Eric is a great guy and i've seen this car run. Its amazingly fast and is a total sleeper. And this car has been treated like a baby. Whoever ends up with it will be very pleased.

 

Thanks man.

 

bump for fish eyes

 

To whoever called yesterday, I wrote down your number at work, and it disapeared. Sorry!
Said you were in the process of selling your RHD EK.

Heh. Call my cell/IM me/E-mail me.

-erik

 

 

 

 

Taking offers.

I can also throw in a set of brand new set of slicks already mounted on rims.

 

Could you go into more detail with the #4 cylander?
You say it's not driveable?

I'm not interested in buying but I'm sure the buyer will want some more info...

BTW: You have an amazing hatch.

 

Every bit of detail will be told to anyone interested that comes to check out the car.
Car ran must've ran lean for a split second. I can only assume the cold densor air caused the boost to raise a tiny tiny bit. But that's all it needed, since the 550 injectors were maxed out at 100%.
Detonation.
Came back found the very tip of the spark plug missing. Doh!
Checked compression, #4 was quite a bit off. Haven't run it since.
The sleeves are fine, and pistons seem to be in one piece, so it's obviously the ringlands or rings of #4.

But yeah, I'll talk your head off about it when anyone comes to check it out. Even pull the head.


I'm trying to sell it as a whole dirt cheap for now just to save the hassle of parting it out. But I'll give it a week more before I start pulling out the parts.

The asking price is $8500....
When I said the suspension and turbo set up cost me that alone. I wasn't lying.

lol! check it out. it's quite depressing. damn close to 8500. Those are the prices i paid for them. Rounded down in most cases. I bought almost everything brand new.

Anyone who's ever owned a turbo honda knows to never stop and add up how much you've spent. Because it's horribly depressing.

Notice nowhere there did I list a price for the motor or build or even the car itself. Or even any of the labor for anything. Or the endless time I spent under this car...


A new short block or rebuild this one... and you have an 11 second street car. All for under 10g's.


It's driveable. The motor starts. the car runs.
I just would highly advise against it. The RS sleeves are the best in quality. And it would be best to avoid the possibility of damaging them, until the problem is addressed.

Of course. Every bit of info I know will be shared.

Thanks man.

I know exactly what you mean by that. I spent every paycheck i got on my car including maxxing out my credit cards. One day i just figured that i couldnt deal with it anymore(no time, school, no money, etc.) finally sold it and got a wrx that drives with a/c, 36k warranty, and comfort. It was fun while it lasted tho

bump for a sweet ride tho
