Gotta pay for a wedding :tif:

1993 Honda Civic DX Hatchback  
Rust free shell, never been through a winter as far as I know/have been told. I’ve owned for 2 years or so now, bought from a member here. It was in really rough shape when I bought it, partially painted, partially sanded original frost white paint, some new panels, unpainted bumpers, wiring nightmare, ghetto muffler etc etc. I went through and fixed/replaced all the wiring issues. They included wiring the slim fan so it kicks on by itself and not a switch, removing the ridiculous gauges, fixing the radio and general tidying of the harness. Then I stripped it to a shell and pulled a couple dents, fixed some scratches and primed/painted the entire car. The engine bay got safety blue and the body got a black called “black gold” which is a PPG color. I had the title changed to black so there were no issues with the man. 3 coats of dupont chromaclear were used after the color. While the motor was out I partially tucked the harness which included running wires behind the fenders and putting the fuse box under the dash. I also cleaned and painted the block and trans high temp silver. I’ll list the mods kind of how I did them upon reassembly so hopefully I don’t forget anything.

Brakes:  
GSR front and rear brakes  
4040 prop valve  
91 Civic EX 4dr 15/16 Master  
Goodrich SS front lines  
Brembo slotted rotors up front, auto zone rears  
Fresh Motul 5.1

Suspension:  
OEM struts from a 98 civic with 60k  
Eibach Ground Control coilovers  
ITR 22mm rear sway bar  
Subframe brace I think it’s from [RobearRacing.com](http://RobearRacing.com)  
Function 7 LCAs ($$$$)  
Skunk2 front upper control arms  
Adjustable rear upper camber…things

Interior:  
Scat Procar driver seat from Summit  
Del Sol pass seat  
Mugen shift knob  
Kenwood CD player w/USB  
Sony xplod door speakers  
MOMO Champion steering wheel  
GSR gauge cluster w/ amber bulbs  
Red plaid headliner  
OEM integra floor mats  
Aerosol rubberized undercoating in back 1/2 of the car  
Glove box isn’t broken!

Exterior/Appearance:  
16" Spun Supamesh wheels painted black  
205/45-16 Hankook rs-2 tires with lots of life left  
Carbon Fiber vinyl roof wrap  
VIS carbon fiber evo style hood  
Ebay black headlights/corners  
Cheapo poly front lip  
Amber side markers  
Carbon fiber spoon style mirrors  
[JDMshit.com](http://JDMshit.com) carbon fiber rear wing w/ led brake light  
OEM civic mud flaps  
PWJDM radiator bracket  
Blox cam seal

Underhood:  
B18C1 Integra GSR motor, doesn’t burn oil & no leaks  
b16 trans with ls final drive, very short gearing and super fun to drive  
Partially tucked harness  
Greddy header to 2" exhaust and to 2.5" straight through muffler  
AEM intake w/ K&N filter  
MSD wires  
Mishimoto radiator & slim fan  
CF spark plug cover  
SS clutch line

Maintenance:  
Driver side tie rod  
T-stat  
Water pump  
Timing belt  
Fuel filter  
Plugs (NGK)  
Distributor cap & rotor  
Cam seal  
Valve cover gasket

Known issues:  
3rd gear synchro isn’t the best, it doesn’t grind going into 3rd but feels like you forgot to push the clutch in pulling out of 3rd at high rpms.  
Hood pins suck, they were $15 from napa and are worth about $5.  
The front pads are dusty as hell and aren’t that great in the rain.  
Intermittent wiper setting doesn’t work but low and high do.  
The e-brake handle is blue as well as the driver interior door handle.  
There is a paint sag on the pass. rear fender as well as a run in the clear on the cf hood.  
The paint could use a good buff by someone who knows what they are doing. It’s not terrible by any means but I’m not a pro. From a foot away you can see swirls.  
The roof had a handful of fish eyes, thus the carbon fiber roof wrap.

Here are a couple pics as well as the link to the photobucket album. One of the pics shows the engine bay with a different header. It’s a replica tri-y header that I couldn’t get an exhaust to work with so I switched back to this greddy header. It can be included in the sale or sold seperate.

I’m looking for $4,000. I will also entertain adjusting the price for more or less parts in the sale. If you want to bring your own wheels, seat, hood or whatever else we can work out a price. I have a stock hood painted to match but it’s got some dents. I’ll sell it as a shell if the price is right. Big items such as engine or suspension I would like a deposit before I remove them. I do have complete rear interior that can be added for more money. It’s black leather seats from an rsx. I will also part the car out but if you want something small that is going to mess with the sale of the car it isn’t going to be cheap.

I really don’t care to hear “it’s going to cost me XXX to repaint/change something”. If you don’t like something like the engine bay color, find a different car.

Any other questions just ask here or PM me. The car is on the road and just passed inspection a few weeks ago.

Thanks guys.

I’ve been asked by a few people a price on the shell. Without the motor I’ll do $2800. I’ll value the wheels at $300, hood at $200 and seat at $100 so you can deduct those from the total if you want. For example the shell without the items above would be $2200. Hope that makes sense.

I see the rub strip recesses have been shaved…is this something you did/had done or previous owner? I know alot of people don’t do it the right way (weld the entire seam of new metal onto the recess lip before using body filler) and then over time vibration and expansion/contraction crackes the bondo where the match material wasn’t welded (I.E. between stitch welds)

I didn’t do it, but it is welded as you can see the penetration on the back of the door skin.

Rear seats can be included, they are rsx leathers.

Will you trade for a dozen American Flag pins, a lightly rusted civic that hasn’t ran in a couple years, 3 used amps(not sure if they all work), and a signed check for $175? If so please let me know and PM me ASAP! thanks!!!

If you had 2 dozen pins I might have bit.

Well if you and Jam want to split the motor I’ll pull it. He’s interested in the trans I’m sure we can work something out.
