1995 Honda Civic Dx With H23a Dohc Vtec Swap on 2040-cars
Cleburne, Texas, United States
I am selling my 1995 Honda Civic DX coupe
The chassis has around 176000 miles on it. I have several extra parts for the car. Fans, door panels from an EX, bolts, wiring, etc. which you are welcome to if you want them. This car does have a rebuilt salvage title. I purchased it from a junkyard 10 years ago. It was Totaled by the insurance company because of theft. The front fenders, front bumper, hood, and seats and trim were stolen out of it. There was no collision. When I bought the car the odometer said 145514. There is a mistake on the Title where a previous inspection station switched the odo numbers before I bought it. So the title flags a possible roll back. It didn't have a roll back. the guy just wasn't very good at his job. Now the odo says 28k(and counting), but it is exempt now, so... Tons of mods: *JDM H23a Blue Top DOHC VTEC Swap *Prelude 5Spd Tranny *ACT Stage 3 Clutch and HDx Pressure Plate capable of holding 500 Lbs/Ft Torque *P28 with Hondata S300 V2 and Boost By gear addition for anything you could ever want to do to the motor (Turbo? Bolt ons? Aggressive Tune? - Up to you) *HCP Motor Mounts *Innovative A/C brakcet *Ice Cold A/C - System has Custom fabricated lines with an AC condenser tuck with pusher fan (Plenty of room for a Turbo, if you decide 200HP is not enough) *Custom machined Civic A/C Compressor to accept the H23 A/C pulley so you have a 5 groove belt running the A/C and Alternator instead of the typical 3 groove which is prone to wear out way too quickly and notorious for slipping. *eBay Aluminum Dual Core Radiator with OE Fan *eBay Polished Stainless 4/2/1 Header *Full 2.5" 304SS Mandrel bent exhaust including 14" resonator, HushPower High Flow Cat, and OBX DUNK Muffler with 4.5" angled tip *Mugen Style Front Strut tower brace *TypeR Style Rear Strut tower brace *Skunk2 Pro Series rear Lower and Adjustable Upper Control Arms with COA - Both sets are Hard Anodized color (basically gun metal Grey) *Rear Disc Brake conversion with e-Brake *Energy Suspension rear arm bushings *Front Spindle and Disc brake upgrade from a 4 door (largest available OE diameter) *PowerStop Slotted/Cross Drilled Rotors and Brake Pads all four wheels(4000 miles) *Stainless steel braided brake lines front and back ($65.00) *OEM Integra Shocks and Springs *5000K DDM Tuning HID kit on D-Spec Crystal Clear Glass headlights - JDM Amber Corners *50/50 split White/Red Tail lights with DDM LED 320 Lumen RED Blinkers *Alpine CDA-9886 CD/USB/iPhone/iPod (MP3/WMA) head unit *MTX Competition 10" Woofer in a ProBox and Kenwood 700 Watt amp to power it. *Full custom 2-tone Black Oxen "Leather" (Vinyl) and Grey "Suede" (Microfiber) seats with Silver braid piping Front and back (Brand New - only about 3000 miles since I installed them last year.) *Heated front seats (Driver and Passenger) Brand New eBay kit. *JDM OE Center arm rest ($90.00) *Modified Front shifter console to accept the Accord shifter assembly and still keeps the cup holders --Note the cup holder door will not latch closed because of the necessary modification for it to fit. So the cup holder is always in the open position. *Black Carpet (8/10) There is some wear on the driver side where your heals rest while driving. But it is under the floor mat, so.... *Black and Grey interior in extremely good condition (The A-Pillar on the driver side has holes drilled in it for an autometer 3-pod pillar overlay with. (I will be including the gauges as well. The tachometer is broken. But the car has stock tach. *AC EL Dash Gauges *RCA cords are already run under the carpet for a 2nd amp if you decide to amplify door speakers/add rear speakers etc. *Rota Circuit8 Bronze Gunmetal Wheels with Hancook Ventus 205/50 R15 on the front and Kumho Ecsta 195/55 R15 on the Back *Interior sound deadening including HushMat in the cabin floor pan, and Tar/Foil in the trunk. *Custom trunk floor was made of Rigid StyroFoam insulation and peg board which was sprayed with Black BOOM noise reducer, then a universal All Weather mat was cut to fit and placed over the top. *Custom body work, side rub strip molding removal, with welded and smoothed clip holes, Tungsten Grey Metallic Paint job including engine bay, trunk lid, and door jams. The paint was done professionally by Zorn Rods and Cycles. (Paint and Body work was $2800.00) *Brand new windshield and Honda Molding surrounds *Brand new WINKOS window tint (Lifetime warranty with warranty card and Certificate of Authenticity) Including the windshield sun visor tint. The not so good: No power steering. No windshield washer system. Right front CV axle is popping when you turn. Front end paint repair was done by me. So there are some spots that could use professional attention. Front bumper is OE flat black primed. Overall: This is a really nice car. For a 20 year old Honda Civic DX, I doubt you will find a cleaner, nicer ride. A complete, ready to enjoy vehicle that has both performance and luxuries like A/C and a Clean body with new Paint is rare in this scene. This is not a riced out, hellaflush, slammed vehicle. It is drivable daily on all roads, has a lot of on hand power, but does not sacrifice comfort while it does it. I've done everything to make this civic, the car that I dreamed of 11 years ago, and I wasn't going to stop till I saw it through. I have 5 cars, and I am working on a rear wheel drive project now, this car was my dream car a long time ago, I really just want someone to enjoy it. I have moved on and developed different tastes in cars, So now it is ready for YOU! As with any used car sale you understand that this is a used car and I offer no warranty. As far as I know this is a really nice Civic right now, ready for someone to love. Over $14K invested...

Consumer Reports' first motorcycle reliability report finds Japanese brands ahead
Sat, 22 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has released its first ever study of motorcycle reliability, and students of its ratings on cars might notice a suspicious similarity - Japanese brands require fewer repairs than the leading American or German brands.
The study analyzed the reliability of 4,680 bikes owned by CR subscribers and found that Yamaha had the best ratings, with just one in ten bikes built between 2009 and 2012 requiring a repair over a four-year period. The makers of the R1 and R6 sport bikes were closely followed by Kawasaki and Honda, while one out of every four of the rumbling bikes from Harley-Davidson experienced an issue. BMW had the worst rating of the brands represented, with one in three bikes having problems.
According to CR, neither Suzuki nor Triumph owners provided enough information for a reliable rating. Based on the responses received, though, Suzuki would have finished with the other Japanese brands and Triumph, being English, would have been one of the less reliable makes.
Honda reveals three new turbo VTEC engines, including Civic Type R 2.0L
Tue, 19 Nov 2013It's fair to say that in recent years, Honda has been viewed as a laggard when it comes to engine and gearbox development, seemingly missing the boat on direct-injection, forced-induction and high gear-count transmissions, among other things. But under its Earth Dreams banner, the Japanese automaker is showing new vigor, with the latest proof being this trio of just-announced powerplants.
Measuring 1.0-liters, 1.5-liters and 2.0-liters in displacement, this array of three- and four-cylinder engines boasts turbocharging and direct-injection along with the latest iteration of Honda's famed VTEC variable valve timing hardware. "Most suitable for small-to-medium-sized vehicles," the largest engine is said to be good for more than 276 horsepower and will slot into the eagerly awaited Civic Type R, iconic red valve cover and all.
Unfortunately, few other details about the hot Civic's engine or any of the others are being made public at this time, and there's no official word about the engines coming to North American in the Type R or any other model. Given that all the engines are complaint with stringent Euro 6 emissions standards, they figure to be clean enough, and Honda says that these have been developed as global powerplants, so we'd be shocked if they didn't come ashore in new or updated products over the next few years... even if they leave the CTR on the boat.
Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.
