Well, in a series of unfortunate events, I've decided to sell my 1994 Civic DX 5 Speed. I used this car for hypermiling the entire time I've had it and got 50 mpg or more most of the time, to 75-82 mpg on a few select trips.It's got 251,000 miles on it now. It's a DX so, manual steering, manual windows, manual door locks, etc.

But alas, it needs a motor now. Thing is, that's all it really needs. I put a ton of work into the car in the last year or so to make it very roadworthy but I think it's time for a new car. For those of you interested in swapping a motor this would be a perfect donor shell to do it. Essentially completely stock.

Non-smoker, Interior is very clean.

So, here goes.

The Good:
- Tires have a lot of tread left. Maybe 30,000 miles on them.
- New brake pads and rotors up front.
- New brake shoes in the back.
- New LF lower control arm (No accidents, bushing went).
- New clutch and Fidanza lightweight flywheel. (Maybe 15k on clutch and flywheel).
- New high capacity aluminum radiator, aftermarket high flow fan, upper and lower radiator hoses, heater hoses and a couple other miscellaneous coolant hoses (Maybe 15,000 miles on it) with Evans NPG coolant throughout and spring removed on radiator cap (Needs an engine though, so not like it matters... lol).
- Some eBay header the shop I worked at had laying around (old), fairly new hidden muffler with turndown tip.
- New Starter (Less than 1,000 miles on it, but if you can source a starter I'd like to return this one since I still have the receipt. If not, take it. ;D)
- MPGuino fuel computer installed in Civic SI gauge cluster.
- Large interior JDM fanboy rally mirror included with sale.
- Axles only 1 year old (Although I see one beginning to leak on the RF).
- Rebuilt original cylinder head with 30k since rebuild.
-There's barely any rust besides the typical rear 1/4 panel rust, which also isn't very bad. See pictures. There are holes in the rear 1/4 panels from where I had screws attaching rear wheel covers. These could be easily filled in as well. (Car needs a paint job anyway.) Underbody is fine. Rust hole forming on RF fender and various small rust spots forming here and there.
- Aftermarket head unit (albeit and old one).
- Cool early 1980's Civic/CRX hubcaps
- Full Size Spare
- OEM Antenna delete with interior antenna installed above windshield

I think that may cover the good. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me.

The Bad:
- Needs a motor. Like definitely needs a motor. 30,000 miles ago, I saw white smoke coming out the tailpipe so I knew it needed a head gasket at least. Upon further inspection of the motor when disassembled, I noticed there was a lot of pitting in the block next to sleeve of cylinder 3 if I recall correctly but I said, "Screw it. Let's put a head gasket on and see what happens.". Converted to Evans NPG so I could run a 0 PSI cap which I figured would be less likely to put pressure on the weak area of the block and I was right. For 30,000 miles. Started misfiring for about 5 secs when starting up in the morning a couple weeks ago but then ran fine. Coolant was spewing in small amounts out of the overflow and getting this sticky carbon like stuff in it. I put a pressure cap on to see what would happen. Sure enough, the misfire got worse and I found a drop of coolant on the tip of the tailpipe. If I top off the coolant, the motor still runs fine with the 0 PSI cap on it, so you should be able to drive it wherever you're going home to without any overheating issues. I have one gallon of NPG left and if you need it for the ride home, you can have it.
- It may need a brake master cylinder. The pedal sinks a bit randomly, but there are no leaks on any of the lines at all. They're all in pretty good shape from what I remember. If you're hypermiling, you're going to be driving a bit of a ways behind people anyway, so it hasn't been enough of an issue for me to replace it.

- Needs a dimmer switch. Conks out every now and then. If you tap the switch the cluster lights come back on.
- Could use some new speakers. The speakers are stock but the RF door speaker intermittently works. I've taken the door panel off and messed with it before, but to no avail. The LF speaker works but it's not very loud.
- Have heard a clunking noise in the front end for a while, but can't pinpoint source. No looseness in front end up or down, no sway bar end links to make noise. I'm assuming its the strut mounts as they are original.
- Hole in the carpet by the gas pedal, driver's seat tear.
- The paint. Many different shades of red. Many dings and scratches but overall not horrendous. A paint job would make it look great. Once again, there are holes in the rear 1/4 panels from where I had screws attaching rear wheel covers and some on the front fenders. These could be easily filled in as well although I'd replace the front fenders if it were me. (Car needs a paint job anyway.) Underbody is fine. Rust hole forming on RF fender and various small rust spots forming here and there.

- Will need a new front bumper. Attached a grille block to it and cannot be removed.

- 2 Rust spots on the inside of the trunk. One on each side. See pictures.

If I top off the coolant again, you should be able to drive it home if you operate the car conservatively, but it has been getting hot due to the head gasket leak. Optima battery in photos is not included with sale.

I think that about covers the bad. Once again, any more questions, I'll be happy to answer.

If I top off the coolant again, you should be able to drive it home if you operate the car conservatively, but it has been getting hot due to the head gasket leak.

This vehicle is being sold AS-IS.

Thanks for looking!

Next Honda Ridgeline previewed in sketch

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Honda's big debut at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show may be the all-new Pilot crossover, but the Japanese automaker has released another juicy morsel for us here in the Windy City. Previewed in a sketch, Honda is giving us our first glimpse at the next-generation Ridgeline pickup (note that the drawing pictures the truck on an actual ridgeline – good one, guys). The Ridgeline always sort of steered away from conventional pickup truck wisdom, using a unibody construction with passenger-car roots. We don't know much more about the new truck, the company only saying that the next Ridgeline "will take the original's award-winning performance, comfort and utility to new levels with completely new styling that communicates unmistakably that it's a pickup, yet with a uniquely Honda flair." It's unclear exactly when the new Ridgeline will debut, though Honda expects it to go on sale sometime next year.

McLaren confirms Alonso, keeps Button

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Every year a big game of musical chairs breaks out in the Formula One paddock, as some drivers try to hold on to their seats, some try to grab new ones and others are left without a seat for the following season. McLaren has been extremely reluctant to announce who would be sitting in its carbon-fiber seats next season, but it's finally spilled the beans. McLaren was strongly rumored to have hired Fernando Alonso for next season, speculation over which was all but confirmed when the two-time world champion announced his departure from Ferrari. He's now been officially confirmed to be returning to Woking for next season. But the bigger question over who would be his wingman has now been answered as well, as the team has decided to keep Jenson Button on board for at least one more season. Long regarded as a top driver, Button started out with Williams back in 2000, then spent a couple of seasons in Enstone with Renault before switching to Honda in 2003, finally winning the championship in 2009 when the team went out on its own as Brawn GP (now Mercedes). He switched to McLaren in 2010 to form a dream team with Lewis Hamilton (who in turn left for Mercedes last year), but though Jenson has been unable to rack up another world title, he's remained a favorite especially of Honda's, which returns to F1 next season to rekindle its once-dominant engine-supply partnership with McLaren. Alonso, meanwhile, made his grand prix debut with Minardi (now Toro Rosso) just one year after Button, then switched to Renault first as a test driver and then got the race seat, winning back-to-back world championships in 2005 and 2006. He subsequently spent one tumultuous season alongside Hamilton at McLaren before going back to Renault and then to Ferrari, which which he spent five years, scoring eleven checkered flags to finish in second place in the standings, three times. Alonso's signing and Button's retention spell bad news for Kevin Magnussen, the young Danish driver who got his start with McLaren earlier this season after winning the Formula Renault 3.5 Series title last year. With all the other seats already spoken for, Magnussen was left with no choice but to accept a test-driver role with McLaren in the hope that he might be promoted back again in the future. McLaren-Honda prepares for 2015: laying the foundations for future domination McLaren-Honda is delighted to announce its new driver line-up for 2015: Fernando Alonso and Jenson Button.

Watch Evo pick its 2015 Car of the Year in this epic video

Mon, Dec 7 2015

With just a few days left in 2015, it's the perfect time to check out Evo's annual Car of the Year test to determine the greatest performance vehicle of the last 12 months. The writers' picks for the 11 finalists spanned a breadth of engaging models and included: Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport, Lamborghini Aventador SV, Seat Leon Cupra Sub8, McLaren 675LT, Porsche 991 GT3 RS, Porsche Cayman GT4, Honda Civic Type R, Ferrari 488 GTB, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Lotus Evora 400, and Mercedes-AMG GT S. For the venue to test the mettle of these performance machines, Evo stuck close to home this year and visited the twisting roads at the beautiful north coast of Scotland. Racing brothers Marino and Dario Franchitti also came along for the ride to provide two more voices in the competitive challenge to determine a winner. Evo's video explains why each model deserves to be among such rarified company but doesn't gloss over their faults either. There can be only one winner, though. We don't want to spoil it, so check out the clip for magnificent views of these performance machines through the Scottish countryside.
