The previous owner of this vehicle listed it as having water damage at one time, but assured me that it was fixed. He stated that he had went through the whole car and changed the carpet's.  I purchased this Honda in the latter part of 2012 and had planed to drive it for the fuel savings.  After my purchase I found their were many things that needed to be completed.  It came with a half set of coil springs for the rear wheels that I installed. The front set were installed,but the brake hose's were left floating which necessitated a complete rework to make their installation correct.           This auction is for a 1990 civic hatchback.  it has 2000,00 miles on the body, but the motor and transmission have been swapped.  The motor is a  JDM ZC DOHC 1.6L with 50,000 miles.  The automatic was converted to a 91 SI 5 speed with 90,000 miles.  The car has a check engine and in park light on because of the swap, and a switch for the back-up lights was installed.                 A honda tech that I purchased the car from did all the swap's and the following:  replaced the water pump, timing belt, all oil seals, alternator, spark plugs, a 1990 integer ECU which has great fuel maps, NGK Blue wires, fuel filter, pro thane shifter bushings, new CV axles, new front shocks with 1.75 inch drop lowering springs, tie rods, new belts, all new hose's both upper and lower, new radiator, wheel bearings, brakes, short ram air intake, headers 4-2-1 to 2.5 inch exhaust with high flow CAT. converter, a new clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, pilot bearing, fly wheel and fly wheel bolts.  All fluids are genuine honda.  The interior has 97 civic front bucket seats, and the rear is 91 civic Si leather seats.  Si clock and Si center console, JDM shifter boot with knob and short shifter, 2001 civic Si front floor mats, black carpet out of an Si donor car, and $200.00 super bright head lights.                                                                                               Since I have owned it, I installed new shocks for the hatch door, new pirelli tires on custom 14 inch honda wheels, relocated a new 5 year battery to under the hood, had a new radio installed professionally, and ordered all of the parts I needed through Honda.  I have only driven about 500 miles, but part of that was on good inter-state road where I was able to give it a adequate test drive.  It performed admirably.  I filled the fuel recently and it still show's full.  This car at one time had AC, but I don't have parts to install it now.  If you have any Question I'll be happy to answer.
In regards to water damage I haven't seen any.

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.

Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.

Honda recalls nearly 350k Odyssey minivans over unintended braking

Sun, 03 Nov 2013

A problem reported with the Vehicle Safety Assist System has prompted Honda and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall for Odyssey minivans from the 2007 and 2008 model years.
The issue revolves around a combination of parts and software that have been reported to cause the vehicle to brake hard and unexpectedly, without illuminating the brake lights. Imagine driving behind one of these vehicles when the malfunction occurs and you can easily understand how an unexpected rear-end collision could ensue.
Unfortunately, Honda won't be able to fix the problem until next spring, at which point the manufacturer will call in the 344,187 units affected into their local dealership for a fix. In the meantime, Honda will instruct owners on how to avoid the situation. For further details, see the full recall notice below.
