The previous owner of this vehicle listed it as having water damage at one time, but assured me that it was fixed. He stated that he had went through the whole car and changed the carpet's.  I purchased this Honda in the latter part of 2012 and had planed to drive it for the fuel savings.  After my purchase I found their were many things that needed to be completed.  It came with a half set of coil springs for the rear wheels that I installed. The front set were installed,but the brake hose's were left floating which necessitated a complete rework to make their installation correct.           This auction is for a 1990 civic hatchback.  it has 2000,00 miles on the body, but the motor and transmission have been swapped.  The motor is a  JDM ZC DOHC 1.6L with 50,000 miles.  The automatic was converted to a 91 SI 5 speed with 90,000 miles.  The car has a check engine and in park light on because of the swap, and a switch for the back-up lights was installed.                 A honda tech that I purchased the car from did all the swap's and the following:  replaced the water pump, timing belt, all oil seals, alternator, spark plugs, a 1990 integer ECU which has great fuel maps, NGK Blue wires, fuel filter, pro thane shifter bushings, new CV axles, new front shocks with 1.75 inch drop lowering springs, tie rods, new belts, all new hose's both upper and lower, new radiator, wheel bearings, brakes, short ram air intake, headers 4-2-1 to 2.5 inch exhaust with high flow CAT. converter, a new clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, pilot bearing, fly wheel and fly wheel bolts.  All fluids are genuine honda.  The interior has 97 civic front bucket seats, and the rear is 91 civic Si leather seats.  Si clock and Si center console, JDM shifter boot with knob and short shifter, 2001 civic Si front floor mats, black carpet out of an Si donor car, and $200.00 super bright head lights.                                                                                               Since I have owned it, I installed new shocks for the hatch door, new pirelli tires on custom 14 inch honda wheels, relocated a new 5 year battery to under the hood, had a new radio installed professionally, and ordered all of the parts I needed through Honda.  I have only driven about 500 miles, but part of that was on good inter-state road where I was able to give it a adequate test drive.  It performed admirably.  I filled the fuel recently and it still show's full.  This car at one time had AC, but I don't have parts to install it now.  If you have any Question I'll be happy to answer.
In regards to water damage I haven't seen any.

2014 Honda Odyssey revamp only costs an extra $150*

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

Honda has released pricing on its 2014 Odyssey. Buyers can take home the revamped minivan for $28,825 (excluding an $830 destination fee). That price marks a $150 increase over the 2013 model, but that extra Benjamin and a half buys you a whole slate of updates. Those include a new six-speed automatic transmission in all trims, revised exterior styling and a few tweaks to the instrument cluster and dash controls. Honda's familiar 3.5-liter V6 engine provides 248 horsepower and 250 pound-feet of torque, and the new gearbox helps the van return 19 miles per gallon city and 28 mpg highway.
Of course, those who opt for the top-shelf $44,450* Touring Elite trim will get to play with the new HondaVac vacuum cleaner system. The handheld vac is built into the van's rear cargo area and recharges using the onboard 12-volt electrical system. The little vacuum features a removable debris canister as well as a replaceable filter bag and can run for eight minutes between charges. Check out the full press release below for more information.

Meet the Kanjozoku, Osaka's infamous street racers

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Street racing is obviously illegal and incredibly dangerous, but that has never stopped people from doing it. While we don't hear nearly as much about the scourge of Japanese tuner cars as when The Fast and the Furious first hit theaters over a decade ago, illegal street racing is still bubbling under the surface all over the island nation. An excellent new documentary short from Bowls Films takes a look at the Kanjozoku from Osaka, Japan; a group that claims to be partially responsible for the tuning style known as JDM.
The group gets their name from their preferred route known as the Kanjo. It's a 4.77-mile long loop of connected highways running right through the city of Osaka. You might expect a hardcore group of illegal Japanese racers to show up with highly tuned Nissan GT-R and Toyota Supra coupes, but the Kanjozoku evidently eschew all of the others in favor of one particular car that they love: the Honda Civic.
According to the video, that vehicle of choice came in part from the city's location. Osaka was relatively near the one-make Civic races held at Japan's legendary Suzuka racetrack. The hatchbacks thus became the default weapons for the Kanjozoku's street battles.

Honda shows us 'The Challenging Spirit of Honda'... in Japanese

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

Just as Porsche has done with its lengthy Le Mans gear-up, Honda is is laying the table for its Formula One return more than a year before we'll actually see it on track. We've heard what it's 2015 engine will sound like, reminisced with the 1988 McLaren Honda MP4/4 and the 1964 Honda RA271 and spoken to the company's CEO about what F1 involvement could do for its production car engines.
The automaker has now released a video called The Challenging Spirit of Honda that traces the development of its in-house F1 program and the jump from motorcycles to the first RA270 F1 chassis in 1962, to the RA272 chassis that won the 1965 Grand Prix. The only catch: the video is in Japanese. However, you can read about the winning car in English, and the video ends with another sound check of the 2015 power unit. That is a universal language, and you'll find it being spoken below.
