UP for auction is my 1991 Honda CRX Si project. I bought this car new in 1991 and I kept it for about 5 years. I sold it to a friend and she neglected to change the timing belt so she damaged the engine. I bought the car back from in 2000 with the intention of restoring the car. Shortly after I bought the car my friend's CRX was totaled. He was begging me to buy my CRX so I reluctantly sold it to him. He owned the car for 4-5 years and then slid off of the road. He damaged the front bumper cover, right fender and some of the suspension. I bought it back again in 2005. By the way the car has a clean Carfax. I wanted to restore it but that was put on hold since I purchased a new Acura NSX. It just sat in the garage while I slowly collected new parts for it. I replaced the front bumper cover, hood, both front fenders, both door skins and added the JDM glass roof panel during the body restoration. All parts are OEM Honda. I replaced all of the body parts because they were dinged up a little. I did not want any bondo in this car. This CRX was extremely well kept during my 1st 5 years of ownership. The car was completely RUST FREE before the bodywork was performed!!! The last pic is a pic of one of the quarter panels without rust before the bodywork was started. The car was block sanded with filler primer several times in order to ensure straightness with no waves and all of the panels were painted off of the car so there are no tape lines. I had the painter completely paint the doors (edges and exterior with all hardware removed) and paint into the jambs while leaving the factory labels in place. The glass roof was installed using the factory spot weld locations (they are the same as USDM roof panels) and a BNIB NOS glass roof molding was installed. After the base Tahitian Green Pearl (original color) was painted the car was color sanded before the clear was applied. The clear needs to be wet sanded because I wanted to finish assembling the car first and then wet sand it. The quality of this paint in second to none. The paint used is Sikkens which is one of the top brands on the market. Between the new panels and glass roof I spent over 3000.00 + the paint and body work. The pictures are not great and the car was dusty when I took them. The car looks much better in person. The car needs to be put back to together and I will include the following parts that are BNIB Honda parts. Center console with shift boot, radio bezel with pocket, antenna, shift knob, tail light gaskets, seat belts, cargo cover, rear cargo door that folds down for access to the cargo area (complete with trunk carpet), belt line molding (doors, quarter panels, and fenders), lower cladding for rocker panels and lower door caps, roof gutter moldings, chrome front H emblem, rear quarter glass moldings (rubber that surrounds glass), door sash / pillar moldings), fender liners, electrical portion of ignition switch, clutch cable, speedo cable, rear license plate holders, new headlight assemblies complete with bulbs, rear trailing arms, compensator arms and control arms (passenger side trailing arm is bent). Like I said all of these parts are BRAND NEW IN BOX from Honda. Most of theses parts are no longer available. Here is a list of additional parts that are used and in mint condition. I have the complete carpet from a low mileage salvaged car. I think it only has about 15,000 mile on it and it is VERY CLEAN. Climate control panel without cracks, cargo box, rear interior plastic (the both have minor cracks where they wrap around the trailing edge of the door openings which are easily repairable), NEAR MINT interior door panels (no seatbelt tears), e brake cover, glass roof headliner, glass roof map light, glass roof rear view mirror, center and passenger side tail light ( you need a driver side light), original seats with no wear (just had new foam installed), exterior door handles, 5 speed transmission, marker lights and front turn signals which are in exceptional condition. I could be forgetting something ... HA ! I will include 2 engines with the car. I have the original short block which requires a rebuild. In addition I have a built high compression (11:1 ?) engine with eagle rods, ARP bolts and Endyn pistons. Bottom end was just refreshed and the head was just rebuilt by Endyn with ported and polished, head, larger valves etc. I have a D16 vtec intake manifold too. You will need a distributor, ecu, header, throttle body, fuel rail and injectors. Car does not have the engine or transmission installed. The car also needs a windshield and the driver side rear quarter window will be installed prior to your purchase. I do not have a set of wheels for this car other than what you see in the pics. There are probably a few things that I forgot to mention. I am selling the car "AS is" since it is a project. I hate to get rid of it but I am looking at buying another car and I need the space. If make any offers please consider how much you are getting in NEW PARTS and what has been spent on the car. Just the bodywork, paint and glass roof cost about $10K. I think that you cannot have a nicer car than this one once it is completed. It would probably only take a few weeks to complete it. If I do not get the right offer I will sell just the rolling chassis and sell off all of my BNIB parts for good money. I would rather sell the car as a complete package though. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you pick up this car in person because of the large parts inventory. They will not all fit in the car so you will need a pickup and trailer. For inquiries send a email through ebay or call / text me @ 443-226 FIVE NINE FOUR ZERO |

Honda S660 proving popular with middle-age Japanese buyers
Tue, Aug 11 2015The S660 roadster has been a success so far for Honda. (At least, that is, insofar as a niche-market sports car limited to the Japanese Domestic Market can be considered a big seller.) It just hasn't resonated with the customers that the company expected. Honda revealed the S660 in concept form at the Tokyo Motor Show nearly two years ago, and subsequently put it into production. The convertible Kei car pays homage to models like the S500, S2000, and Beat. It packs a tiny 660cc three-cylinder engine mounted amidships and driving the rear wheels. Despite its connection to past models, the S660 features an entirely modern design that, along with its low price, was expected to appeal to younger buyers. But while Honda has already sold out all 8,600 examples it's slated to build this year, a surprising 80 percent of them have been snapped up by customers over the age of 40 who are mostly buying them as second cars. The development is not entirely isolated. As Bloomberg points out, the number of licensed drivers in Japan "under the age of 40 has fallen 46 percent over the last 13 years." Those are rather startling numbers that dwindle the market down for youth-oriented vehicles like the S660. Honda is expected to begin taking orders for next year's allocation of S660s in October. At that point, the company anticipates the average age of its customer base will drop. But with fewer young drivers on the road in Japan, it shouldn't expect it to drop by much.
Defying Trump, major automakers finalize California emissions deal
Tue, Aug 18 2020WASHINGTON — The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and major automakers on Monday confirmed they had finalized binding agreements to cut vehicle emissions in the state, defying the Trump administration's push for weaker curbs on tailpipe pollution. The agreements with carmakers Ford Motor Co, Volkswagen AG, Honda Motor Co and BMW AG were first announced in July 2019 as voluntary measures prompting anger from U.S. President Donald Trump. A month later, the Justice Department opened an antitrust probe into the agreements. The government ended the investigation without action. The Trump administration in March finalized a rollback of U.S. vehicle emissions standards to require 1.5% annual increases in efficiency through 2026. That is far weaker than the 5% annual increases in the discarded rules adopted under President Barack Obama. The 50-page California agreements, which extend through 2026, are less onerous than the standards finalized by the Obama administration but tougher than the Trump administration standards. The automakers have also agreed to electric vehicle commitments. Volvo Cars, owned by China's Geely Holdings, said in March it planned to join the automakers agreeing to the California requirements. It has also finalized its agreement. The settlement agreements say California and automakers agreed to resolve "potential legal disputes concerning the authority of CARB" and other states that have adopted California's standards. In May, a group of 23 U.S. states led by California and some major cities, challenged the Trump vehicle emissions rule. Other major automakers like General Motors Co, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV and Toyota Motor Corp did not join the California agreement. Those companies also sided with the Trump administration in a separate lawsuit over whether the federal government can strip California of the right to set zero emission vehicle requirements. Ford said the "final agreement will reduce emissions in our vehicles at a more stringent rate, support and incentivize the production of electrified products, and create regulatory certainty." BMW said "by setting these long-term, predictable, and achievable standards, we have the regulatory certainty that is necessary for long-term planning that will not only reduce greenhouse gas emissions but ultimately benefit consumers as well."Â
Honda further expands Takata recall to 340k vehicles in Japan
Thu, May 28 2015Just days ago, Honda announced it would expand its global Takata airbag inflator recall by 4.89 million vehicles globally, though none of those were in the US. Now, the automaker has broadened the safety campaign in Japan by 340,000 units. The company's Japanese expansion includes 80,000 vehicles to replace their driver's side inflators. According to Reuters, these cars were covered under an earlier recall but weren't yet repaired. There are also 260,000 additional automobiles in the country in need of passenger side replacements. A broadened campaign is also coming for the US, but its extent isn't known yet. According to Reuters, Honda submitted the necessary documents to regulators on May 27. However, the automaker has decided to wait for National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to make the official announcement. Takata's exploding inflators are linked to six deaths and many injuries. Research indicates that exposure to moisture causes the part's propellant to ignite too quickly when the airbag is activated and can cause these ruptures. In testing on components taken from recalled vehicles, Takata found hundreds of cases of them bursting.
