1996 Honda Civic V6 Hatchback Race Car Or Fast Street Car on 2040-cars

Lancaster, Pennsylvania, United States

You're bidding on a rare 1996 Honda Civic Hatchback with a full functioning 3.2 Liter V-6 from a 2003 Acura CL Type S.  That engine is mostly stock with headers and 3 inch cat-less exhaust.  The car has 260+ Horsepower and does have the rare limited slip diff. trans that was only available for one year in the Acura CL.  The car has a custom wiring harness (everything works), hasport mounts, custom intake, custom Koyo radiator, K-Tuned traction bars for the front.  The brakes are the real Civic Type R 5 Lug Swap for the front and rear and stainless brake lines. I am running custom K-Sport RR Coilovers  with a upgraded sway bars and 2006 RSX Type S wheels.  I had the coilovers made based on the specs of the car, weight , spring rates ext.  See website for more details. For the interior I have 2 Corbeau racing seats with a 5 point harness.  The roll cage is custom not a pieced together bunch of metal (Very Detailed)  The hood is custom to fit the big engine.  if you don't like the hood you can run hoodless or cut a oem hood.  I have also heard hasport makes mounts now that will lower the engine enough to fit without the engine sticking out...  I built the car for track days and have only had it to the track once.  The car is a blast to drive!  Its nice to have a Honda with torque.  The car is street legal in PA, not sure about other states.  I currently drive the car under 5000 miles so its emissions exempt.  The car doesn't have a catalytic converter currently.  To pass emissions it would need a o2 bung welded with a spacer and rear o2 sensor or a catalytic converter installed.  I haven't had any issues with the car and consider it the most reliable car in my fleet since everything is new and the motor isn't modified.  When I put the motor in I had a Acura Tech put a new timing belt/water pump and plugs just in case.  You won't need to do anything to this car, you can truly buy it to drive or race. The shell had 200k on the car and the motor only had 60-70K when installed.   The body is nice with no Honda rust!  There are a few very minor dents on the doors and the front bumper could be painted.  (Looks Pink)  I may have put 2000 miles over the last few years.  Feel free to ask any questions.  I am sure I am missing something.

Honda, GM fuel-cell partnership wants to reduce hydrogen refueling costs

Thu, Feb 27 2014

To paraphrase the old political adage, it's the cost, stupid. Dollar signs are what's prompting Honda and General Motors to partner up to accelerate development of a hydrogen fuel cell system. With about half the cost of a fuel-cell system tied up in its fuel-cell stack, GM and Honda are looking to help each other drive costs down, according to a presentation by GM fuel cell research and development director Mark Mathias said in a presentation at the SAE 2014 Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Technologies Symposium. According to Green Car Congress, Honda and GM are looking to reap the fruits of their collective labor by 2020. As with other automakers, the high cost of producing fuel-cell vehicles is the fly in the ointment of a powertrain technology that combines the same range as gas-powered vehicles but with zero emissions. In the meantime, Honda, which makes the very limited production FCX Clarity fuel-cell vehicle, is slated to start selling its own mass-market fuel-cell vehicle in 2015. The two automakers made their partnership announcement last summer and said they contribute to expanding hydrogen fuel infrastructure in California during the next few years. Earlier, Ford, Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler and Nissan also said they would work together to speed up fuel-cell technology development.

2014 Honda Accord V6 Touring

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

America's midsize sedan segment is one of the most crowded and fiercely competitive in the business. The Toyota Camry has long been our nation's best seller, while the Honda Accord has dutifully come in second place, like some sort of codependent Cal Naughton Jr. riding Ricky Bobby's back bumper.
There was that one year, 2001, when the Accord briefly broke the Camry's streak, marring what would today have been a 17-year-long run of best-selling car titles. The Accord pulled the opposite move in 2011, letting sales slip far enough to let not only the Toyota by, but the Nissan Altima and Ford Fusion, as well. Aside from those anomalies, the Camry and Accord have been first and second in this segment since before many of you readers could even drive.
It's 2014, and these frenemies have never before faced a threat to their world order as strong as today's class of family sedans. The aforementioned Altima and Fusion are perhaps the most capable challengers, but the Chevrolet Malibu, Hyundai Sonata, Kia Optima, Volkswagen Passat and Mazda6 are all capable of convincing new buyers to walk their way.

Honda sending two NSX racers and new EV concept to Pikes Peak

Fri, Mar 11 2016

Honda is always good for a few interesting Pikes Peak entries. In 2015, Acura supplied a 2017 NSX prototype for pace-car duty. This time around, two NSXes will compete alongside a reconfigured version of the company's four-motor electric racecar. Those aren't the 2016 entries above. The one on the right is last year's pace car and the one on the left is a first-gen NSX that did the hillclimb the past few years. The 2016 cars haven't been unveiled yet, but we know that one will be in the Time Attack 2 Production class, which is mostly stock with the addition of items like a roll cage, and the other will be in Time Attack 1. TA 1 allows modifications to the powertrain, additional aero aids, suspension changes, and other tweaks, so expect to see a lot more power and a big wing on the back. The cars will be driven by James and Nick Robinson, brothers who work for Honda R&D in Ohio. Honda will use a version of the four-motor electric powertrain from its 2015 CR-Z Exhibition class entry in a new EV. (We got to drive a non-race tune of this setup in Japan last year.) The 2016 version, which will wear a different body, moves to the Electric - Electric Modified class of last year's frontrunners. We're told this car is aiming for an overall win at the 2016 race; the CR-Z took 11th place overall in 2015. The EV will again be driven by Tetsuya Yamano, a Japanese Super GT driver. Oh, and there will of course be a factory entry or two from Honda's Powersports division. Honda engineer Keith Steidl will ride a 2015 TRX1000 ATV in the Pikes Peak Challenge - Exhibition Powersport class. In the past, Honda has fielded plenty of other neat stuff in the Race to the Clouds. In 2012, it ran an NSX fitted with a twin-turbo V6 from an LMP2 car, and the 2013 race saw the very practical 532-horsepower turbocharged Odyssey minivan join the Exhibition class. The 2016 race marks the Pikes Peak hillclimb's 100th anniversary (but not the 101st running since competition took some breaks back in wartime). We're looking forward to June already.
