This is a great car for summer. I have had it for many years, but it is time for me to sell it. It is in amazing condition. I have taken care of it like it was a new car. Take a look at the pictures, especially the interior and it looks flawless. 

The engine has been replaced with a fully built Japanese H22A engine, and only about 25,000 KM on it. It makes about 450 horsepower with it's giant turbo. You can hear the air sucking in on the highway. There is a twin plate racing clutch to handle all of the power. 

I have installed a glass sunroof which opens up the inside of the car. The interior is in near perfect condition. There are a few blemishes on the outside, but that is to be expected on an older car. It was repainted about 5 years ago.

It has an electronic boost controller, along with other electronic gauges inside that you can watch while driving. Alpine deck, amp and speakers are installed. The car uses 93 octane fuel. It is tuned with a Hondata S300 ECU. You can connect your laptop to the car while it is running to monitor all aspects of the engine. It has an immobilizer installed.

Listing of some of the main parts added: 
-Garrett Turbo charger making 450 horsepower 
-Intercooler with blow-off valve 
-Tein racing suspension. The car has also been lowered for better handling 
-Carbon Fibre hood 
-Buddy Club rims with Dunlop Dirreza summer tires for amazing grip 
-Custom 3 inch exhaust 
-Oil cooler 
-Limited Slip Differential 
-Fully built and forged internal shortblock 

There are many other parts, too many to list here; over $20,000 in parts alone invested, not including labor or the price of the car itself. For a full list of parts, please see the picture with all of the parts installed.

The tint is starting to age and needs to be removed. There is also some damage on the front bumper lip, but this can be replace or repaired fairly easily. It is not part of the actual bumper. 

Comes with official service manual and other documents for the parts.

Buyer is responsible for any costs associated with picking up or shipping the vehicle. Shipping must be arranged by the buyer.  This car is sold as is; there are no warranties or guarantees. 

Preferred payment of payment is a direct wire transfer.

If you have any questions, send me a message and I will answer it as soon as possible.

How to charge up your BMW i3 with a Honda

Sat, Sep 13 2014

Behold a cheaper version of BMW's range extender for its i3 plug-in. And it's brought to you by ... Honda? Sort of, if you take the approach that Gadget Review took when it looked for an alternative to ponying up the $4,000 or so for the gas-powered i3 range extender that comes from the factory. What was procured was a Honda portable generator for Home Depot for the experiment, which involved gassing the generator up in a parking lot, plugging in the i3 and going out for a cup of coffee. The result was that, after about a half-hour of charging, the i3 picked up about four miles of driving range. Not exactly revolutionary but it least a bit instructive. And given that Honda generators start at about $800, the idea, while clunky, is potentially cash-saving. Gadget Review briefly took the experiment one-step further by trying to run the generator inside the back of the car and plugging in, complete with a rigged-up ventilation system, but the host thought better of it once he realized that there'd be suffocation involved. Why this was never tried on the Nissan Leaf, we'll never know. Check out Gadget Review's five-minute video below.

Toyota raises Japanese base wages for first time since 2008

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

Toyota is on track for record profits, and in return, its Japanese workers are receiving their first increase in base wages since 2008, plus higher pay based on seniority and a larger bonus for 2014. The Japanese automaker predicts the average laborer will net a 2.9 percent income gain.
The average Toyota employee will earn 2,700 yen ($26.28) more each month, a 0.8 percent increase from last year. Workers will also receive about 7,300 yen ($71.09) more monthly based on seniority and promotions. Finally, the company's union pushed through a median bonus of 2.44 million yen ($23,768) for 2014, the highest in 6 years.
The pay boost comes as Toyota forecasts a record 1.9-trillion yen ($18.5 billion) profit for the fiscal year ending on March 31, according to Bloomberg. It has been helped by the Japanese government's efforts to weaken the yen on international markets and expand inflation. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been asking businesses to increase compensation to end years of deflation and offset upcoming higher sales taxes. Honda and Nissan have also raised their wages there in recent months.

Honda is first Japanese carmaker to be a net-exporter from US

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Over the last decade or so, many foreign automakers have challenged the idea of what defines an "American car," but Honda took things a step further last year by exporting more cars out of the US than it imported in. Reuters is reporting that in 2013, a total of 108,705 Honda and Acura models were exported from the US with only 88,357 being shipped in. This gives Honda a net exporter status here, and makes it the first of such among the major Japanese automakers.
Honda's US imports have been dropping over the last five years while its exports have been steadily increasing. In 2008, the report indicates that Honda shipped 187,000 vehicles to the US and exported only 20,000, and even by 2012 Honda still favored imports with 136,000 imports and 74,000 exports. The article says that US-made Honda and Acura vehicles were exported to 50 countries with most ending up in Mexico, but the big news is that the Honda's US production set a record in 2013 with 1.3 million units built.
