1996 Honda Civic V6 Hatchback Race Car Or Fast Street Car on 2040-cars
Lancaster, Pennsylvania, United States
|
You're bidding on a rare 1996 Honda Civic Hatchback with a full functioning 3.2 Liter V-6 from a 2003 Acura CL Type S. That engine is mostly stock with headers and 3 inch cat-less exhaust. The car has 260+ Horsepower and does have the rare limited slip diff. trans that was only available for one year in the Acura CL. The car has a custom wiring harness (everything works), hasport mounts, custom intake, custom Koyo radiator, K-Tuned traction bars for the front. The brakes are the real Civic Type R 5 Lug Swap for the front and rear and stainless brake lines. I am running custom K-Sport RR Coilovers with a upgraded sway bars and 2006 RSX Type S wheels. I had the coilovers made based on the specs of the car, weight , spring rates ext. See website for more details. For the interior I have 2 Corbeau racing seats with a 5 point harness. The roll cage is custom not a pieced together bunch of metal (Very Detailed) The hood is custom to fit the big engine. if you don't like the hood you can run hoodless or cut a oem hood. I have also heard hasport makes mounts now that will lower the engine enough to fit without the engine sticking out... I built the car for track days and have only had it to the track once. The car is a blast to drive! Its nice to have a Honda with torque. The car is street legal in PA, not sure about other states. I currently drive the car under 5000 miles so its emissions exempt. The car doesn't have a catalytic converter currently. To pass emissions it would need a o2 bung welded with a spacer and rear o2 sensor or a catalytic converter installed. I haven't had any issues with the car and consider it the most reliable car in my fleet since everything is new and the motor isn't modified. When I put the motor in I had a Acura Tech put a new timing belt/water pump and plugs just in case. You won't need to do anything to this car, you can truly buy it to drive or race. The shell had 200k on the car and the motor only had 60-70K when installed. The body is nice with no Honda rust! There are a few very minor dents on the doors and the front bumper could be painted. (Looks Pink) I may have put 2000 miles over the last few years. Feel free to ask any questions. I am sure I am missing something.

Ugly Moto makes beautiful motorcycle art [w/video]
Thu, 08 May 2014Ugly Moto is a horrible name for a company that makes such wonderful motorcycle art. The creation of artist Francis Ooi, the company's illustrations focus on some of the iconic racing bikes of the 1960s and 1970s.
The artwork has an elegant simplicity that really makes it pop. It would fit just about anywhere from a home office to the bedroom of a young gearhead. Ooi has completed six illustrations so far covering classic cycles from Honda, Ducati, Yamaha and even Harley-Davidson. According to his site, the Suzuki RGB500 ridden by Barry Sheene will be the next one released. All of the prints are priced at $65 and are limited to 100 copies. They are all about 16.53 inches by 23.58 inches in size.
According to his website, these prints are just a hobby for Ooi and his real career is as the creative director at an ad agency. He creates the illustrations on his Mac, and he estimates that each design with about 800 components and layers takes about a month to complete. You can get idea of the process involved in the time-lapse video below.
Honda recalling 183k cars and crossovers over unintended braking issue
Thu, 14 Mar 2013A recall has been issued for nearly 183,000 Honda and Acura brand vehicles from the 2005 and 2006 model years. The problem stems from a potential malfunctions to the vehicles' stability control and braking systems.
Drivers have reported a malfunction to Honda's Vehicle Stability Assist system, though to date, no crashes or injuries have been reported as a result of it. Some of the vehicles' Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) control units may have an electric capacitor that was damaged during manufacture. A damaged control unit could cause the VSA system to apply brake force for a "fraction of a second" without any driver input, or could add additional brake force if it malfunctions while the driver is already braking. Either example could increase the risk of a crash.
To fix the issue, Honda will install a new electrical sub-harness, free of charge to the owner. The recall specifies 101,000 Honda Pilot (pictured), 60,000 Acura MDX and 21,000 Acura RL vehicles from the 2005 model year will be affected. An additional 800 MDX crossovers from the 2006 model year are also included in the recall. In addition, 51,000 of the affected 2005 Pilots will be inspected to be sure that a ground bolt for the VSA system is properly tight. Should this bolt come lose, similar unexpected brake activation may occur.
Honda to spool up turbos, workforce with F1 tech
Fri, 22 Nov 2013Honda has had a longer and more tumultuous relationship with Formula One than just about any other automaker. It had only been building cars for four years before it entered F1 in 1964 as the first Japanese team in the series, winning its first race the following season but shuttering the program a few years later. Honda came back to power the likes of Williams and McLaren to several World Championships in the '80s and '90s, but things took a downturn when it started a partnership and ultimately took over British American Racing. After pouring untold billions into the effort, the economy tanked, and Honda ultimately sold the team, which subsequently claimed the championship - under new ownership and Mercedes power. Now Honda is gearing up to return in 2015 with a new turbocharged V6 hybrid powertrain it's supplying initially to McLaren, which in turn is switching back to Honda from nearly two decades with Mercedes.
So why return to F1 now? That's precisely what Autoblog asked Honda's Global President and Chief Executive Takanobu Ito (pictured above with McLaren chief Martin Whitmarsh) while visiting his office in Tokyo. While he wouldn't reveal specifics (like when his company's new engine would be available to other teams, as it most certainly will in the long run), Ito-san was clearly happy to discuss the motivation behind the move and the value he feels it brings to the company and its products.
Ito pointed toward the proliferation of motors within Honda's powertrains as a development he hopes to take to road from track
