This is a fun car!  I have owned it for a couple of years, making improvements all along.  When I got it a fresh paint job had just been done by the local community college with a black and red metal flake.  I added the pin stripes and vinyl lady bugs.  All that can be removed.  The lady bugs are because wife did not want large Asian dragon that I chose! lol!  The wheels have hand painted trim.  Good tires. New brake pads and drilled and slotted rotors all the way around.   I replaced seats with 1989 seats, did not realize they would not just drop in so I had to fabricate mountings, they do not slide back and forth but the originals were shot.  I do still have them I think, at least one but I cut some mounting parts of if I remember correctly.  The windows have a legal tinting.  There is an alpine stereo and new speakers.  New floor mats.  When I got it there was a new clutch, timing belt, and the flywheel had been lightened.  I have replaced the radiator, idle air control valve, injectors, head, water pump, new exhaust with stainless headers, muffler, all the way back.  Has a good rumble that is not that cat back pooting sound.  Most of the engine still has emissions stuff,  I have also made a sort of cold air intake, just a new filter and intake arrangement really.  Powder coating and painting of engine parts. Spare clutch cable.  It needs a few things like the thermovacuum switch on the thermostat housing.  The drivers door is a pain, if you don't unlock it before  you try to open it from the inside it will stick and you will have to open the window and open from the outside- can't figure that one out. I believe some of the smog stuff still needs replacing.Sometimes it smokes until it is warm, not sure about that either with new valve seals on the head?   The compression is above 175# on all cylinders. I have not exceeded 4000 rpm. A/C works but could probably use a leak check and the fan is weak as they all are. I have added some fog lights and red ground effect lighting.  New headlights. I may have forgotten some things as I have done so much but I like it and trust it at over 30 mpg!  It is a classic head turner!   I can take more pictures if you want, I already had these on my computer.  All in all it is a fun sporty classical car!  I am only selling because I have too many and am shifting priorities to a Toyota Supra.  I am listing locally so reserve the right to sell locally.  This is an ad so make an offer.  Thanks.

Are you the 2014 Honda Fit?

Fri, 28 Jun 2013

Despite being the oldest model in North America's subcompact sweepstakes, the current Honda Fit remains a paragon in its segment, offering unparalleled packaging, good road manners and robust reliability. In fact, even with far more modern competitors like the Chevrolet Sonic, Ford Fiesta, Hyundai Accent and Nissan Versa Note on the scene, it may well still be the best of the bunch.
All of which explains why we're so nervous about the next-generation model, shown in these apparently leaked stock shots scanned from an in-country magazine (no, that rear end really isn't that wonky, it's the page curl distorting the image).
Will the next Fit retain the current car's incredible seating flexibility? Will it still offer a sweet-shifting manual transmission and a four-cylinder seemingly happy to bounce off its rev limiter all the livelong day? We won't know until we try it, but if these shots are representative of what we can expect in North America, it certainly will look very different. While the same two-box shape with roughly the same greenhouse remains, the front end looks much more aggressive than before, with squinty-eyed headlamps blending into a Civic-like grille, all sitting over a lower fascia with unusually oversized air intakes. The profile view is dominated by the front quarterlight and a new sharply rising character line that originates in the front fenders and terminates in the headlamps.

Honda to field this awesome Civic Tourer wagon in BTCC next season

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

We all know that the letters BTCC stand for British Touring Car Championship. But one of those Cs might as well stand for Civic, so dominant has the Honda team been in one of the most competitive tin-top racing series in the world. Honda has taken the manufacturers' and teams' titles in the BTCC for the past four years running, and the championship-winning drivers for the past three years have claimed the prize behind the wheel of a Civic. While that might have proven enough for any other manufacturer, Honda is returning again next season to defend its dominant position, and has just revealed the new car with which it intends to do so.
Next year Honda will be back on the grid with another Civic, only this time it's based on the new Euro-spec Civic Tourer. That will make Honda the only team in the BTCC (and one of only a few worldwide) fielding a wagon-based racing car. In announcing the new BTCC-spec Civic Tourer, the Honda Yuasa Racing team only released this one photo and didn't reveal much in the way of details, but team manager Peter Crolla indicated that "the weight, wheelbase, layout and suspension remain the same" as the hatchback which it will replace, only with a longer roofline.
Testing of the new touring wagon will commence in January before returning champions Gordon Shedden and Matt Neal will pilot the new Civic Tourer in the season opener at Brands Hatch in the UK in late March. It remains to be seen what car Andrew Jordan (who took the title this year in another Civic with the Pirtek Racing team) will be driving next season, but in the meantime, you can check out the full press release below for more.
