1995 Honda Civic Dx With H23a Dohc Vtec Swap on 2040-cars
Cleburne, Texas, United States
I am selling my 1995 Honda Civic DX coupe
The chassis has around 176000 miles on it. I have several extra parts for the car. Fans, door panels from an EX, bolts, wiring, etc. which you are welcome to if you want them. This car does have a rebuilt salvage title. I purchased it from a junkyard 10 years ago. It was Totaled by the insurance company because of theft. The front fenders, front bumper, hood, and seats and trim were stolen out of it. There was no collision. When I bought the car the odometer said 145514. There is a mistake on the Title where a previous inspection station switched the odo numbers before I bought it. So the title flags a possible roll back. It didn't have a roll back. the guy just wasn't very good at his job. Now the odo says 28k(and counting), but it is exempt now, so... Tons of mods: *JDM H23a Blue Top DOHC VTEC Swap *Prelude 5Spd Tranny *ACT Stage 3 Clutch and HDx Pressure Plate capable of holding 500 Lbs/Ft Torque *P28 with Hondata S300 V2 and Boost By gear addition for anything you could ever want to do to the motor (Turbo? Bolt ons? Aggressive Tune? - Up to you) *HCP Motor Mounts *Innovative A/C brakcet *Ice Cold A/C - System has Custom fabricated lines with an AC condenser tuck with pusher fan (Plenty of room for a Turbo, if you decide 200HP is not enough) *Custom machined Civic A/C Compressor to accept the H23 A/C pulley so you have a 5 groove belt running the A/C and Alternator instead of the typical 3 groove which is prone to wear out way too quickly and notorious for slipping. *eBay Aluminum Dual Core Radiator with OE Fan *eBay Polished Stainless 4/2/1 Header *Full 2.5" 304SS Mandrel bent exhaust including 14" resonator, HushPower High Flow Cat, and OBX DUNK Muffler with 4.5" angled tip *Mugen Style Front Strut tower brace *TypeR Style Rear Strut tower brace *Skunk2 Pro Series rear Lower and Adjustable Upper Control Arms with COA - Both sets are Hard Anodized color (basically gun metal Grey) *Rear Disc Brake conversion with e-Brake *Energy Suspension rear arm bushings *Front Spindle and Disc brake upgrade from a 4 door (largest available OE diameter) *PowerStop Slotted/Cross Drilled Rotors and Brake Pads all four wheels(4000 miles) *Stainless steel braided brake lines front and back ($65.00) *OEM Integra Shocks and Springs *5000K DDM Tuning HID kit on D-Spec Crystal Clear Glass headlights - JDM Amber Corners *50/50 split White/Red Tail lights with DDM LED 320 Lumen RED Blinkers *Alpine CDA-9886 CD/USB/iPhone/iPod (MP3/WMA) head unit *MTX Competition 10" Woofer in a ProBox and Kenwood 700 Watt amp to power it. *Full custom 2-tone Black Oxen "Leather" (Vinyl) and Grey "Suede" (Microfiber) seats with Silver braid piping Front and back (Brand New - only about 3000 miles since I installed them last year.) *Heated front seats (Driver and Passenger) Brand New eBay kit. *JDM OE Center arm rest ($90.00) *Modified Front shifter console to accept the Accord shifter assembly and still keeps the cup holders --Note the cup holder door will not latch closed because of the necessary modification for it to fit. So the cup holder is always in the open position. *Black Carpet (8/10) There is some wear on the driver side where your heals rest while driving. But it is under the floor mat, so.... *Black and Grey interior in extremely good condition (The A-Pillar on the driver side has holes drilled in it for an autometer 3-pod pillar overlay with. (I will be including the gauges as well. The tachometer is broken. But the car has stock tach. *AC EL Dash Gauges *RCA cords are already run under the carpet for a 2nd amp if you decide to amplify door speakers/add rear speakers etc. *Rota Circuit8 Bronze Gunmetal Wheels with Hancook Ventus 205/50 R15 on the front and Kumho Ecsta 195/55 R15 on the Back *Interior sound deadening including HushMat in the cabin floor pan, and Tar/Foil in the trunk. *Custom trunk floor was made of Rigid StyroFoam insulation and peg board which was sprayed with Black BOOM noise reducer, then a universal All Weather mat was cut to fit and placed over the top. *Custom body work, side rub strip molding removal, with welded and smoothed clip holes, Tungsten Grey Metallic Paint job including engine bay, trunk lid, and door jams. The paint was done professionally by Zorn Rods and Cycles. (Paint and Body work was $2800.00) *Brand new windshield and Honda Molding surrounds *Brand new WINKOS window tint (Lifetime warranty with warranty card and Certificate of Authenticity) Including the windshield sun visor tint. The not so good: No power steering. No windshield washer system. Right front CV axle is popping when you turn. Front end paint repair was done by me. So there are some spots that could use professional attention. Front bumper is OE flat black primed. Overall: This is a really nice car. For a 20 year old Honda Civic DX, I doubt you will find a cleaner, nicer ride. A complete, ready to enjoy vehicle that has both performance and luxuries like A/C and a Clean body with new Paint is rare in this scene. This is not a riced out, hellaflush, slammed vehicle. It is drivable daily on all roads, has a lot of on hand power, but does not sacrifice comfort while it does it. I've done everything to make this civic, the car that I dreamed of 11 years ago, and I wasn't going to stop till I saw it through. I have 5 cars, and I am working on a rear wheel drive project now, this car was my dream car a long time ago, I really just want someone to enjoy it. I have moved on and developed different tastes in cars, So now it is ready for YOU! As with any used car sale you understand that this is a used car and I offer no warranty. As far as I know this is a really nice Civic right now, ready for someone to love. Over $14K invested...

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic
Mon, Oct 24 2016Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

It turns out Takata isn't willing to expand airbag recall nationally after all
Wed, Dec 3 2014There have been "approximately 0.000006 failures per air bag deployment, which is far below the failure rate" of most recalls, Takata claims. Takata has seemingly made an about face following reports that it would expand its regional airbag recall into a nationwide repair effort, issuing a scathing, four-page letter rebutting allegations by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and its Office of Defects while simultaneously attacking the government's handling of the situation. The Japanese supplier claims in its letter that the "currently available, reliable information does not support a nationwide determination of a safety defect," arguing that there were "approximately 0.000006 failures per air bag deployment, which is far below the failure rate in the vast majority of the thousands of recalls," The Detroit News reports. Takata then breaks down the two specific incidents mentioned in NHTSA's original recall request letter, a 2005 Honda Accord and 2007 Ford Mustang. Referencing the two crashes, NHTSA Administrator David Friedman said last month "one incident is an anomaly, but two are a trend." The supplier, though, argues the Honda issue is already being covered by that company's soon-to-be-national recall (more on that in a moment). The company then goes on to point out that neither Takata nor NHTSA has been able to analyze the Mustang's airbag inflator, saying that such a lack of examination meant there was "no way to ascertain what actually occurred during the incident, whether any inflator ruptured, and whether any inflator rupture that may have occurred was related to the incidents that led to the current regional campaigns." Takata alleges that NHTSA has disobeyed its own statutes. Takata also took the opportunity to take a few swipes at NHTSA's behavior during the airbag scandal, saying it was "very surprised to receive" a recall request letter because the ODI had yet to even receive the company's responses to a pair of special orders. It also alleged that NHTSA was disobeying its own statute, which says only manufacturers of vehicles and replacement equipment can "decide in good faith whether their products contain a safety related defect," and that the government can only "issue an initial decision that a safety-related defect exists" to those same entities.
Honda previews S660 roadster ahead of Tokyo debut
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Honda isn't known for making convertibles. In fact, legend has it that old man Soichiro banned them from his lineup - but then he also didn't approve of six-cylinder engines, either. There have been exceptions, like the Civic del Sol and S2000, and today Honda has revealed another.
Set to debut at the forthcoming Tokyo Motor Show in late November is the Honda S660 concept, a compact little roadster about which Honda is saying even less. It looks about the size of a Kei car, with a nameplate that suggests a 660cc engine, making it more of a revival for the 1990's Beat than the high-end S2000. And while there are some clear similarities with the EV-STER concept that debuted two years ago in Tokyo, the S660 looks closer to production-ready, with key features like an actual steering wheel.
Of course, whether the S660 makes production, and beyond that makes it off of the Japanese islands and across the Pacific to US showrooms, is another matter, but we could see something like this taking the fight to the Mazda MX-5 and even the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ if it did.
