For Sale: 1990 Honda CRX Si. One owner car purchased new in 1990 from a Honda Dealer in NY. The car was immediately prepped for IMSA's Firestone Firehawk Endurance Championship (FFEC) and was never registered or used on the street until 2003. The car competed in the full 1991 FFEC season and part of the 1992 season. In 1991 it finished the 24 hours of Watkins Glenn and in 1992 in finished 7th at Laguna Seca. This was the last time the car saw competition. In august 1992 the car was stored in a heated garage until 1995 when the car was moved to Phoenix AZ. Between 1995 and 2003 the CRX was slowly converted the car back to a street car. Since 2003 it was used the car for occasion commuting and the occasional track day . The car has 17,767 original miles.

The good points:
This car has under 18,000 original miles, no that is not a misprint, that's less than eighteen thousand.
The 1.6L single overhead cam has been bored to the maximum allowable limit, balanced and blueprinted with gapless piston rings, ceramic coated piston tops and Teflon coated skirts. The head has been polished and ported. The intake manifold has been extrude honed for larger ports. When the CRX was converted back to a street car a high flow cat, a Mugen header and a cold air intake was installed. The car also has a Brospeed exhaust that includes a resonator. It sounds great, not like most civics with fart can mufflers. The car has no trouble passing emissions and no check engine light. The engine makes most of its power between 6 and 7K rpm and LOVES to rev. The current engine was refreshed recently with bearings and rings.
The bolt in roll cage and racing seats where removed once racing ended and the original interior was re-installed. So the interior is in near perfect condition except where the stereo was stolen and the drivers seat bolster fabric is worn through. I believe the seats are not the original ones but were purchased used in order to convert it back to a street car.
The car has Dunlop Sport 8000 tires on 14 inch ROH 6 spoke wheels. There is plenty of tread left on them but they are 10 years old and are showing signs of dry rot.
Stainless steel braided brake lines with the stock calipers, rotors and pads are in good shape.
The car has Ground Control adjustable coil overs with Koni adjustable shocks and Eibach springs. The shocks and springs were installed recently so they are fairly new.

The sunroof is still intact and operates as normal with the factory electric motor.
All the bushings in the cars suspension and the motor mounts are Mugen performance parts.
There is a Momo steering wheel and gear shift knob installed in the car.
Three years ago a used OEM air conditioner system was installed since this car did not come equipped with A/C. During the install a proper conversion from R12 to 134a was performed. ALL of the O-rings were replaced to the green ones for 134a, completely flushed the system of the old oil and replaced it with the type compatible with 134a. The A/C stopped working because a seal is leaking and the idler pulley was making noise. I will include a BNIB Honda idler pulley.

The bad points:
The body has seen some battle from the track and is still painted and stickered with most of the graphics from the FFEC. The stickers are peeling and the paint is faded. There is almost no body panel that is free of some type of dent or bruise. The hood and the roof are probably the panels free of dings and dents.
The hatch shocks are shot and the hatch falls on your head unless you affix a vice grip.

There is an oil pressure gauge that is "T'ed" into the oil pressure port. The gauge is connected with stainless braided lines from the engine to the gauge. Both the idiot light and the oil pressure gauge work and the engine produces a sold 80psi of oil pressure.

Mounted in the cargo box in the rear hatch is a Nakamichi P300 amp that is 2 channel 75 watts per channel. This amp is VERY clean and was discontinued by Nakamichi years ago but is highly sought after in the used market.
In the doors are Rockford Fosgate speakers; QSD216 Q SERIES: 6.5

The driver and passenger side taillights are damaged and cracked.

The CV boots are leaking due to the car sitting for extended periods of times and there is a minor oil leak.
I have the car fax validating the mileage.

I will include the the following BRAND NEW IN BOX Honda parts for this vehicle: All new moldings, the lower cladding, lower door caps, passenger side front fender, new quarter window seals, sunroof seal, A/C idler pulley, center radio trim bezel with storage pocket.

I reserve the right to cancel this auction at any time. This car will probably sell before the auction is over. Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to own a low mileage CRX with a interesting history. When this car is properly re painted it will be worth a lot of money.

I am the second owner and I have owned this car for almost 2 years. I wanted to restore it but I just do not have the time and I am looking at buying another project car. Feel free to call me @ 443-226- FIVE NINE FOUR ZERO

2019 VW Jetta vs. 2019 Honda Civic vs. 2019 Kia Forte: How they compare

Tue, Jan 16 2018

The 2018 Detroit Auto Show was dominated by trucks, but there were also two all-new and completely redesigned compact sedans introduced: the 2019 VW Jetta and the 2019 Kia Forte. Follow their respective links to read our first driving impressions of each, but in short, both compacts are better positioned to steal potential customers away from the segment-leading 2019 Honda Civic, which itself was updated for 2019. Besides taking a look their specs and photos, I had the chance to go between them all here in Detroit, crawl around their interiors, sit in the backseats and figure out which of these not-especially-compacts, which all grew with their latest redesigns might have a practicality advantage. We also have full specifications on each model, which are laid out in the handy chart below. Exterior design There's honestly a little bit of the previous-generation Jetta visible in the 2019 Forte profile — especially around the doors and greenhouse. The Jetta, meanwhile, has the same sort of radically swept-back roofline as the Civic that's become all the rage throughout the automotive industry. The 2019 Jetta is also a little more visually interesting than the car it replaced, though neither the Jetta nor the Forte were as radically transformed as the Civic was two years ago. Alright, let's go to the slideshows. View 20 Photos 2019 Kia Forte View 61 Photos View 28 Photos Engines and transmissions The 2019 Jetta, 2019 Forte and 2019 Civic have considerably different powertrain options, with additional choices possible once the VW and Kia go deeper into their lifespans. Both the Forte and Civic rely on naturally aspirated four-cylinder engines in base specification, with the Civic's 2.0-liter engine making more power and a smidgen more torque than the Kia's. The Jetta goes the turbocharged small-displacement route with its 1.4-liter engine. It makes the same power as the Forte, but smacks down both in the torque department. It makes roughly 50 more pound-feet of twist than both naturally aspirated engines. The Honda Civic is the only one to offer an optional engine, which follows in the footsteps of the Jetta as a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder. Its 174 horsepower is ahead of the others by nearly 40 ponies. However, its 162 pound-feet of torque still falls short of the Jetta. Impressively, all three sedans still offer a manual transmission option, and all of them are six-speed units.

Fred Savage wants to narrate your home videos to practice for Honda gig

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

Honda is getting ready to launch a new advertising campaign with Fred Savage of The Wonder Years (and The Princess Bride) fame, and in order to get his voice in game shape, Savage is taking to social media to get prepared. More specifically, he's apparently interested in adding some voiceover to fun videos provided by fans of the Honda brand, and all you have to do to be considered is to get his attention on Twitter using the hashtag #HondaPromo.
We have no idea how Savage or the Honda PR team plans to choose which videos will be turned into narrated works of art, but we do think it's a pretty fun idea. So, if you happen to have a video that could use some narration, and you think Savage would provide the perfect pitch, hit him up. Oh, be sure to read the terms and conditions first.

Acura NSX production delayed

Fri, Aug 14 2015

Listeners of the Autoblog Podcast will be familiar with my opinions on the Acura NSX. While I love the idea of Acura building a halo car again, I've routinely joked on-air that the car will never, ever reach production and will continue being teased and previewed ad nauseam. So I'm chuckling at this news: the NSX is being delayed again. To be fair, while it sounds like a big deal – pushing the NSX back from model year 2016 to 2017 Â– this is a fairly minor delay in the grand scheme. Instead of starting production this fall, as previously announced, the new supercar will start rolling down the line at Honda's Marysville, OH factory in the spring. "Trial production" has already started, Honda says, while briefly acknowledging the delay in the attached press release. While Honda offered no reason for the delay in volume production, Automobile claims it's the fault of the move to fit two turbochargers to the V6, which was made midway through development. Fitting the two iron lungs meant rearranging the six-pot into a longitudinal layout. Here's hoping there are no further delays. Scroll on for a look at Honda's press release, which does its best to gloss over the NSX delay while talking about the company's new Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville. Related Video: Performance Manufacturing Center: Precision Craftsmanship Aug 14, 2015 - CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA, Calif. The next-generation Acura NSX is produced at the new, dedicated Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) in Marysville, Ohio, using domestic and globally sourced parts. With trial production already underway and production start-up scheduled for spring 2016, this world-class manufacturing facility employs groundbreaking techniques in weld, body construction, body painting, final assembly and quality confirmation to ensure the highest levels of precision and craftsmanship. More details on the unique and innovative manufacturing processes at the PMC will be rolled out over the months leading up to the start of production, but the following highlights of the new facility were shared during the 2015 Monterey Automotive Week: Innovative blend of people and technology: throughout the PMC, NSX production is centered around the skills of approximately 100 experienced engineers and technicians building the NSX to precise levels of quality and craftsmanship.
