For sale is a cypress green 1996 Honda Civic LX sedan. This car has been totally rebuilt and turbocharged with less than 7,000 miles on most everything. Body has about 219,000 miles. I have been putting my heart and soul (along with blood and tears) into this build, but I'm at a point in life where I don't have time for this hobby and I'd like to buy a house.
The list of things done to this car is lengthy: Cylinder Head: 97 EX VTEC head (VTEC is all wired and pinned to the ECU, but doesn't work because the computer wasn't programmed for it) Supertech valve springs new OEM Honda valve stem seals ARP head studs Black wrinkle painted valve cover All new Honda OEM gaskets Engine Block: 96 LX block Bored over to 75.5mm stock sleeves 75.5mm YCP Vitara pistons Custom length forged rods from RC Autoworks (to bring compression ratio up to approx. 8.5:1) Custom ground block to allow clearance for rods ARP rod bolts Polished crankshaft ACL Race main and rod bearings All new Honda OEM gaskets Gates Racing timing belt New Honda OEM water pump New Honda OEM timing belt tensioner Steel oil pan with welded -10 AN turbo oil return fitting Magnetic oil drain plug Detergent free 30wt oil used for proper break-in procedure, then only Mobil 1 full synthetic 5w30 oil used D16Y8 intake manifold port-matched to integra LS 60mm throttle body (uses the LS throttle body gasket) Hondata thermal intake manifold gasket (reduces intake air temps) Speedfactory 4 bar map sensor Lancer Evolution 560cc fuel injectors with adapter harness and resistor box (no wiring hacks) Walbro 255 fuel pump Ebay 2.5" aluminum intercooler piping kit with silicone couplers and T bolt clamps Lancer Evolution front mount intercooler Genuine HKS blow-off valve (sounds awesome) New Precision 5431 MFS turbocharger • MFS (Machined From Solid) 54mm inducer compressor wheel • "E" compressor cover 3.0" inlet/2.0" outlet • 57mm exducer T31, 76 trim turbine wheel • Turbine housing: - T3 .63 A/R with 5 bolt discharge (without wastegate hole) • 360° journal bearing system Custom cold-air intake in driver's wheel well Heat wrapped Ramhorn exhaust manifold Tial 38mm Wastegate (15 PSI spring) recirculated into exhaust (no annoying loud wastegate) 2.5" V band exhaust with upstream O2 sensor and Aem UEGO wideband O2 sensor 2.5" stainless exhaust turbo-back NO Catalytic convertor (car will not pass emissions, it has been converted to OBD I) Cheap Ebay axle-back muffler actually sounds great, not loud or raspy at all Engine Management: OBD I PO6 ECU from Phearable.net Converted to a VTEC computer VTEC is wired in and pinned to the Ecu harness (Vtec does not work due to the ECU program) OBD II to OBD I conversion harness Tuned on Chrome On 93 octane by Beeyond Engineering Tuned with boost leak and bad wastegate- maxxed out at 250whp @ 18 PSI Changed to Tial wastegate, fixed vacuum/boost leak, and did mini-me swap (VTEC head) since then WITHOUT getting re-tuned. Fuel cut is at 18PSI (cannot go higher) With a new tune this setup can easily hit 350 HP Transmission: Stage 4 Competition Clutch Stock flywheel Transmission has had no work done besides all new Honda OEM external oil seals And short-throw shifter Slight occasional grind has just started into third (like last 500 miles and doesn't happen all the time, just trying to be honest) seems like it happened when I switched from Royal purple to Mobil 1 gear lube. Maybe a switch back is the cure My next project would be an MFactory limited slip differential and rebuild the transmission, but I do not have the time or funds for that at this point in my life. Tires do spin in second gear, it's cool, but traction is speed! Axles are Newer stock replacements, maybe 30,000 miles on them Tires are Falcon Azenis with a lot of tread left Wheels are QT Alloys 16" stripped, primed and painted metallic black by me (paint is chipping, doesn't look awful) Black locking lug nuts Also have 4 original steelies with hubcaps (tires are not good) Suspension/brakes: New Koni shocks Tein S tech lowering springs (perfect drop, Perfect Ride) All polyurethane bushings except rear trailing arm and rear compensator arm, which are New OEM Honda bushings Civic SI rear sway bar All 4 New Timken wheel bearings New slotted/drilled front rotors New front upper control arms, all new ball joints Tie rods are new, but the boots are already cracked (kind of upset about that) may need to be replaced soon Interior: White faced gauges with LED lighting Autometer Phantom boost and mechanical oil pressure gauge (steel braided -3an oil line doesn't leak) mounted in gauge bezel AEM UEGO wideband white faced gauge in single pod on A-pillar Blitz turbo timer installed in coin pocket HDI electronic boost controller has a high and low setting that can be adjusted from inside the cabin electronically. It controls a MAC valve in the engine bay that regulates the pressure the wastegate sees Black and tan interior plastic pieces (not painted, actual OEM Honda) RSX type S Titanium (tan) leather front seats custom fitted to the civic bolt locations All airbags still intact and hooked up Stock tan cloth rear seats Aftermarket speakers in front doors and rear deck NO stereo, an adapter harness is already wired in as well as wiring for a subwoofer in the trunk NO cruise control NO air conditioning "rattler" brand aftermarket keyless entry Passenger front power door lock doesn't work Slight squeaking noise from rear drums (new shoes will be included, but not installed) Type R polyurethane black front lip M3 style side mirrors with LED arrow blinkers, painted to match the car Projector headlights with LED halo and the inside painted to match the car Body isn't perfect, dents on driver's side rear door and dents on passenger's front door (ill try to show this in the pictures) Windshield has a crack OEM rear spoiler was installed and has a little clear coat peeling I like to say "all go and no show" This car still averages 30 MPG with "spirited" driving!! Local test drives for SERIOUS buyer's only with me or my father ONLY, I've learned that lesson. Thanks for looking, Message me (Adam) for more info or to set up a time to view the car. Please keep in mind, I live in Oconomowoc and I also work 3pm-11pm weekdays, so mornings will be the best bet Deposit is due immediately at auction end, and full payment will be expected within 7 days |

Honda shows us 'The Challenging Spirit of Honda'... in Japanese
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Just as Porsche has done with its lengthy Le Mans gear-up, Honda is is laying the table for its Formula One return more than a year before we'll actually see it on track. We've heard what it's 2015 engine will sound like, reminisced with the 1988 McLaren Honda MP4/4 and the 1964 Honda RA271 and spoken to the company's CEO about what F1 involvement could do for its production car engines.
The automaker has now released a video called The Challenging Spirit of Honda that traces the development of its in-house F1 program and the jump from motorcycles to the first RA270 F1 chassis in 1962, to the RA272 chassis that won the 1965 Grand Prix. The only catch: the video is in Japanese. However, you can read about the winning car in English, and the video ends with another sound check of the 2015 power unit. That is a universal language, and you'll find it being spoken below.
2013 Honda Civic WTCC is ready for racing
Wed, 06 Mar 2013Drumming up a little excitement for the 2013 FIA World Touring Car Championship, Honda brought its new Civic WTCC car to the bright lights of Geneva for all to see. Honda joined WTCC late last year entering the final three races. The racing outfit will run this year's entire 12-round season, which kicks off later this month in Italy.
In the off-season, Honda made a few updates to its WTCC entry including better aerodynamics, improved suspension and braking and numerous engine and turbo enhancements. Two teams will field the new Civic racecar in this year's season: Honda Racing Team JAS and a private team from Hungary, Zeng"o Motorsport.
Fans of the WTCC in the US will be pleased to know that series makes a return visit to Sonoma Raceway on September 8 for the Race of the United States.
Honda recalls 2.23 million vehicles to replace Takata inflators
Thu, Feb 4 2016The Basics: Honda and Acura will recall 2.23 million vehicles in the US. The affected models are: 2005-2012 Acura RL 2007-2011 Honda CR-V 2007-2016 Acura RDX (early production MY 2016 vehicles only) 2007-2014 Honda Ridgeline 2009-2014 Honda Fit 2009-2014 Acura TL 2010-2014 Honda FCX Clarity 2010-2014 Honda Insight 2010-2013 Acura ZDX 2011-2015 Honda CR-Z 2013-2016 Acura ILX (early production MY 2016 vehicles only) The Problem: These vehicles have Takata's PSDI-5 airbag inflator on the driver's side, and this part could rupture if the airbag deploys. Injuries/Deaths: There are no reported ruptures of the PSDI-5 inflator in Honda or Acura vehicles. However, Takata's exploding components have links to at least 10 deaths worldwide because they can spray shrapnel at occupants. The Fix: Honda and Acura dealers will replace the inflators with parts from an alternative supplier. If You Own One: The repairs will begin this summer. Owners will receive a letter notifying them about the recall within 60 days and will get a second message when the parts are available. The company will prioritize older models in high-humidity regions first because these inflators would be most likely to rupture. More Information: Honda and Acura have now recalled 8.51 million vehicles in the US to replace their driver or passenger side inflators. This latest expansion came in the wake of a driver death from an airbag rupture in a Ford Ranger. Ford and Mazda already enlarged their safety campaigns. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also announced Audi, BMW, Daimler Vans, Mercedes-Benz, Saab, and Volkswagen would have recalls for this issue, too. Statement by American Honda Regarding Nationwide Recall of Certain Takata PSDI-5 Driver Front Airbag Inflators Feb 3, 2016 - TORRANCE, Calif. Approximately 2.23 million Takata PSDI-5 driver front airbag inflators will require replacement in Honda and Acura vehicles in the U.S. No PSDI-5 inflator ruptures have been reported in Honda or Acura vehicles Takata inflators will be replaced with parts from an alternative supplier with repairs beginning in the Summer of 2016 Based on a recent Defect Information Report (16E-005) from the airbag inflator supplier, Takata, Honda will conduct a national recall (16V-061) of approximately 2.23 million Honda and Acura vehicles in the United States to replace, free of charge to vehicle owners, the PSDI-5 Takata driver front airbag inflators installed in those vehicles.
