1989 Honda Crx Base Coupe 2-door 1.5l on 2040-cars
Vineland, New Jersey, United States
|
I have listed here my personal 1989 honda CRX DX 1.5L DPFI 5spd. Im getting rid of her to fund my 69 dodge project. This car has many new parts, recent maintenance and very clean and complete interior. For the most part the car is stock, never had the motor swapped, no wiring repairs. It has ALWAYS been adult driven never ever raced (come on, its a dual point 1.5L not a race car). other than that this car has been tastefully modified.
Exterior: car has a base/clear paint job dont professionally in Milano Red PPG brand paint. no cheap paint job here! Also plenty of paint/clear on the car for a wet sand and a buff. All rust repaired properly with steel oem panels. very little filler used. it has 3 coats of clear with gold pearl. All trim has been cleaned and coated, rear window seals are new. the windows were removed before paint and the old hard gaskets replaced so no more leaks from the rear windows like most CRX's. every panel on this car is oem no certifit or body master junk here only honda. Interior: Mint seats with NO rips in the the cloth where normally the driver side bolster is torn to shreds. oem radio, all knobs, trim and all inside is there and very clean. The rear cargo cover is complete though the vertical part in the back is a little worse for wear. the rear top cargo cover is still in one piece NOT split in two like most CRX's this age. carpet is very clean, comes with CRX oem floor mats but they show their age. Windows were originally tinted but i removed it all except the rear hatch glass. it definitely helps keep the sun from beating down on the interior through that big back window. not only that i didnt want to risk damaging the rear defrosters because they still function. Drive train: Motor has been gone through and runs amazing with new timing belt, tensioner, water pump, head gasket, plugs, wires, filters, fresh oil change, batter, new clutch 6k miles ago. Ive also put in a new thermostat, random vacuum hose and lines as needed. Wheels: Rims are factory Acura Intergra wheels commonly called "blades" or "swirlies" in my area. The clear has been removed and they have been polished. They could be taken a little further but I dont want too much flash. Tires are almost new Kumho ecstas 195/50/15. Suspension: This Crx rides on Black Works Racing full coilovers, BWR rear lower control arms and Skunk2 front upper camber kit. The brakes are oem type pads but not cheapy charlie. I personally replaced the axles a little while back as one was clicking. Exhaust: 2.25" aluminized piping with a factory cat, new O2 sensor, oem resonator and a magnaflow muffler. has a very nice not ricey sound. very throaty for the engine size. I have added oem mud flaps and a factory Si lip to the car. The rears are new oem and the fronts are older but in good shape. The bumper lights and blinkers are all oem and in great shape! the carpet in the car is in very pristine shape as well. Im sure there is something I am missing. I will update it as I remember details. That all being said, this is a 25 year old car. the doors close like a brand new car and seal tight but it does have little things here and there that arent perfect. The hatch rattles a little bit over big bumps, minor scuffs on the plastic on the inside, the little tab in the glove box broke but i glued it. Its been fine ever since and you cant tell unless its pointed out. The driver side door catch has been repaired professionally and is tight and straight as the day the car was made. Like i said, little stuff here and there. The car is not perfect but this is personally the cleanest of 9 crx cars that i have owned. Is it a show car? no but damn close. It gets great gas mileage, gets a ton of looks and is done very well in my opinion. What you see is what you get. NO warranties implied car for sale as is where is. I have a clean title in hand ready to go. I will also entertain REASONABLE offers. |

British Honda CR-V looks tough, gets diesel and 9-speed auto
Wed, 01 Oct 2014Honda just took the wraps off of its thoroughly updated 2015 CR-V for the US, with a touch more style and improved powertrain to provide more torque and better fuel economy. In our First Drive, we found that all of the changes really focused the CUV even more towards the desires of its audience of mostly families. European crossover shoppers don't have to wait too long to see these tweaks for themselves and get a few exclusive upgrades of their own.
While US models get a torquier gasoline engine, Europe loves its diesels. Therefore, the CR-V over there benefits from a more powerful 1.6-liter i-DTEC oil-burner that produces 158 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. This new addition is only available on the four-wheel drive version, and it replaces the previous 2.2-liter diesel in the lineup. Also as opposed to the CVT here, there's now an optional nine-speed automatic gearbox across the pond.
According to Honda, the new diesel with a six-speed manual drops emissions by 11 percent compared to its predecessor. Opting for the nine-speed auto makes things 20 percent cleaner in contrast to the previous 2.2-liter CR-V with an auto.
Japanese spark plug giant NGK pleads guilty to price fixing, to pay $52M fine
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The ongoing investigation by the Department of Justice into price fixing in the automotive industry has nabbed one more company breaking the law. Japanese parts giant NGK Spark Plug Company agreed to plead guilty to a felony count of pricing fixing and bid rigging in the in the US District Court in Detroit. Its punishment is a $52.1 million criminal fine and to continue to cooperate with the DOJ's sleuthing into the problem.
According to the DOJ, NGK conspired to fix prices on spark plugs, standard oxygen sensors, and air fuel ratio sensors on vehicles from major automakers in the US, including the former DaimlerChrysler, Honda and Toyota, in a scheme that ran from at least January 2000 to July 2011. The charge claimed that the company and its co-conspirators held meetings where they agreed on bids and price quotes that were submitted to the automakers.
With the latest plea, the DOJ has caught 28 companies and 26 executives for price-fixing and bid rigging in the auto parts industry, and they have collected $2.4 billion in criminal fines. In 2013, the feds brought nine Japanese suppliers down at once, to collect $740 million. Scroll down to read the DOJ's complete announcement of the case.
Honda CR-V updated for 2015
Mon, 22 Sep 2014The CR-V was first introduced way back in the mid-90s, but Honda has done a good job of keeping it fresh. Now four generations in, the CR-V has been replaced every four or five years. And though the latest version just arrived on the scene a couple of years ago, Honda's giving it a refresh for the 2015 model year.
We've already spied these changes, but now, the Japanese automaker has officially released the image you see above, showing the updated 2015 CR-V with some cosmetic enhancements. The chrome bar at the bottom of the grille integrates smartly with the LEDs outlining the projector-beam headlights, capping a reshaped front bumper with new fog lamps.
Of course, the wheels and mirror caps have been redone as well, but we'll have to wait until Honda releases the full monte to see what the new CR-V looks like around back, inside and under the hood. All Honda is confirming at the moment is that the revised styling "portends the significant enhancements made to the 2015 CR-V" and that it will release further information on September 30 before the updated model goes on sale October 1, so watch this space for more.
