Hello and Thanks for checking out my car.

If you think this car looks familiar, I've listed this vehicle before, but at the time it had a custom vehicle wrap on it and I think that was limiting it's appeal. Since the last time I've listed it (last Summer I think), I've removed the wrap and actually had the whole car exterior professionally repainted (at Impact Collision Center, Tulsa OK) at a cost of $4,500. As much as I'd like to keep the car, in the back of my mind I know I need to let it go, I've had this car for about 12 years now and I'm ready for something different. Anyway, on to the car...

Engine:

JDM B16a from a 2000 Civic Si

Matching manual transmission (car was automatic)

New Radiator at time of Motor Swap

Cleaner Factory Engine Bay Wiring (also removed P/S, Air, CC)

Duralast Battery

Skunk 2 Chip in ECU (ECU has been upgraded so different program chips can be installed) (also comes with a factory non-vtec ECU)

DC Headers - 4 to 1 configuration - Ceramic Coated

AEM Cold Air Intake

Custom Bent Exhaust, with midpipe to keep it quieter, but increase performance.

Skunk 2 Muffler

Aerospeed Short Throw Shifter

Suspension:

TEIN Super Street Coilovers

Factory Parts that connect to coilovers were color matched to TEIN Green

Rear Trailing Arms and Rear Calipers were replaced when suspension was installed

AEM Big Brake Kit (required upgrade to '97 VTEC delsol from knuckles first, these brakes are HUGE!)

EBC Green Stuff Brake Pads

16" Rota Grid Wheels with color matched lip

Nitto NeoGen Tires, size 205/45 R16 87V

Spoon Sports front Strut Bar

Interior:

Kept mostly stock appearing

Carbon Fiber Garnishes on vents/gauges/door switches

Seats are from a Mazdaspeed Protge and they recline/lift/lower/slide

Alpine CD Head Unit + Alpine 6 Disk Changer

Kicker Door Speakers/Clarion Rear Speakers

2 JL w6 10" Subs in custom Trunk enclosure (roof can still be placed in trunk, as well as full size spare!

Subs can be deactivated with a factory integrated switch, if you want to turn them off.

Windshield mounted amplified antenna

Clear door Glass/Windshield, Tinted rear Glass

Exterior:

Fiber Images Carbon Fiber Hood

Shaved door Handles with Autoloc remote to open

Shaved Gas fill and Antenna

Hidden Rear Trunk Release, no key hole

Paint Color is Nissan Sentra Orange (any shop can repair it!)

Factory Aux lights in bumper illuminate Orange

Second set of hidden driving lights are white (in lower bumper area)

JDM 1 Piece Headlights (real OEM Honda parts)

JDM Licence plate fillers

GT Factory "vertical" door hinges

Rolled Fender Lips (in case you want to lower the coilovers all the way down)

Stock Front and Rear Bumpers and Side Skirts

OK, here's the good and the bad of the car.

Overall, it really is a good car, I've driven it from coast to coast 1 time (Philly, PA to Laguna Beach, CA) and it made the trip flawlessly. It's a good driving car, no shakes, vibrations, pulling, none of that. It gets a lot of attention, especially if you open the doors vertically to get out (I just open them as far as they go "regular" and scoot out). The stereo system is awesome, very clear and very little rattle from the trunk, there are various spots of dynamat back there. Almost all the sound is sent forward when the trunk is closed. The head unit can be finicky, it's about 12 years old, and sometimes you have to spin the knob 5 or 6 times to get the volume to start turning up, but once it goes it's fine, typically first thing in the morning. Also, it can be tricky with CD's when you first put them in, but once they are in it works. I've come to learn how to make them work, you may want to replace just the head unit if it gives you trouble, the rest of the sound system is good (or just rely on the 6 disk changer). As I stated above, the car has recently been repainted. It's a professional job, and looks great, but there is a small line of overspray in the drivers door jamb, not major. I have a small bottle of touch up paint as well, in case you need it. I mentioned it's 3rd gear chirp. This is something new, but if I try shifting too fast out of 2nd to 3rd, it does make a small noise. It has never popped out of gear or caused any issue, but I want to give full disclosure about the car. I also have a few extras, an extra ECU (mentioned above), a full set of door glass (roll-up and wing windows that are tinted), and replacement window regulators. I think I have the stock muffler upstairs as well.

I really encourage you to look at the car before bidding if possible. I feel it's in really great shape, and will answer any questions you may have about it. Car is located near Tulsa Oklahoma. I will also help with delivery (cost can be determined on distance) as long as payment for vehicle and delivery charge is made prior to delivery. There is a fair reserve set on the car, well within what the car is worth.

Thanks!

Honda recalls select 2013 Accords over fuel tank neck

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Honda and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have announced a recall for 1,659 model-year 2013 Honda Accord vehicles. The affected Accords are Low-Emission Vehicle II rated cars manufactured between January 15 and April 5 of 2013.
The recall is pursuant to a fuel tank neck that might be out of specification, and the variance could result in the fuel pump not properly sealing with the fuel tank. As you might guess, a bad seal here could result in a gasoline leak, posing a fire risk. As of this writing, there have been no reports of fires because of this problem.
Honda will reach out to owners of affected 2013 Accords, directing dealers to replace the cars' fuel tank, nut and O-ring gasket. Expect the notifications when the recall begins in earnest on August 1. FInd the full NHTSA press release below.

Honda Recalling 900,000 Odyssey Minivans

Mon, Mar 17 2014

DETROIT (AP) - Honda Motor Co. is recalling 886,815 Odyssey minivans in the U.S. because a fuel pump cover can deteriorate and cause a fuel leak. Odysseys from 2005 through 2010 model years are involved. The recalled minivans were made between June 23, 2004, and September 4, 2010. According to documents posted Saturday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the cover on the fuel pump strainer can wear down from exposure to high temperatures and acidic chemicals, like those found in fertilizers. Fuel leaks can cause a vehicle fire. Honda says no fires or injuries have been reported. Honda dealers will repair the vehicles for free, but the company says replacement parts may not be available until this summer. It will notify owners of the recall next month.

Honda invests $215M in Ohio Earth Dreams production

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

Honda has announced a $215 million investment in a pair of its Ohio operations, taking its total tally for North American operations up to $2.7 billion in three years. The announcement was made at the 2013 Center For Automotive Research Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City.
$180 million of the investment is earmarked for Honda's Anna, OH engine plant. The money will allow the facility to increase its aluminum die casting and increase production of Honda's Earth Dreams Technology engines. Think of Earth Dreams as sort of like Mazda's Skyactiv line, only ED is limited to a new line of engines, rather than a full suite of automotive components. Anna will also be getting a new technical center to train engineers, techs, and line workers on powertrain technology.
The remaining $35 million is slated for Honda's main Ohio operations in Marysville. A 160,000-square-foot facility will be constructed near Honda's current properties, which will house another technical training center to focus on automotive manufacturing. The new building will also house Honda's North American Services group, as well as a new heritage center.
