California car that has never seen snow.

I am moving to Japan in January and this has to go. It's also the reason you see a lot of my rare parts up for sale.

Installed:

Interior:
  • USDM Double Din w/Accord Radio and Crx Equalizer
  • JDM Climate Control (numbers are different)
  • JDM “Nonsmoking” Personal Box
  • New OEM shift knob
  • JDM Honda Access Steering Wheel
  • EDM rare LHD Power Window Switches  w/rare “Honda” crank covers
  • USDM Floor mats in good condition
  • Rare Armrest (not cracked, WITH original Felt), cushion padding is worn
  • JDM rear Cloth seats w/rear carpet (cloth ones are very hard to find)
  • JDM rear cargo cover (different than USDM)
  • JDM glass top maplight and sunvisors
  • JDM “Cr-x” Seats.
  • EDM “Pieces” coin box w/original felt lining
  • JDM Bass Tubes
  • JDM Super Sound Speaker covers (I couldn’t get the retaining clips to fit on the back, but will include them with the sale.  They appear to stay in place fine though)
The interior has been converted from blue interior to black interior.  I had slightly been building the Crx from the inside out.  Interior is in really good shape for its age. I need to finish up replacing some parts on the door panels that’s why there are not pictures of them at the moment.


Exterior:
  • Original paint besides the front end
  • JDM Fenders w/sidemarkers, wired up correctly (JDM fenders are stamped for the side markers)
  • USDM front  complete mask/bra
  • JDM rear taillights 
  • Rear center light is a combination of an EDM rear fog light installed in JDM center garnish (I never heard of anyone else doing this)
  • USDM optional arch protectors (fronts aren’t installed but I do have)
  • Full mud flap set (these were from a low mileage JDM car, so good condition)
  • USDM Very RARE OEM Louvre (in ok condition, could be reconditioned properly)
  • Driver side door has new OEM hinges
  • New Crx Si exhaust muffler with tips
This car has been in 2 accidents that I am aware of it.  First accident someone was stopped entrance and caused people to swerve around. I was hit in the front two corners.  The second accident someone reversed into my front bumper.  The front right is pushed in about 1/8 of an inch.  Very little.  As you can see everything lines up nearly perfect.
Before the accident the front end was completely original. I had big plans for this car next year!


Suspension:
  • 3/4 OEM HF wheels, unfortunately 1 wheel is a regular DX (HF’s are HF specific)
  • Tires have less than roughly 15,000 miles on them
  • Springs from a Crx Si, with Tokico Illumina struts
  • New inner/outer tie rods
  • New upper/lower ball joints
  • New front calipers
  • New front brake pads
  • New front brake rotors
  • New rack and pinion retaining clip
  • New inner tie rod boot (passenger side)
  • Rack and Pinion was recently adjusted
I had the driver side front strut go bad so I purchased some Tokico Illuminas for a fair price. They were just installed last week.  I currently have the settings set to 3 but they are a bit loud.  When I’m on really uneven surface it sounds like bad struts, but when I am on regular roads it sounds fine.
Besides that the car drives great.


Engine:
  • Original d15b6 engine
  • New OEM head gasket (has leakage at the mating surface though)
  • New OEM timing belt
  • New Aftermarket tensioner
  • New OEM water pump
  • New OEM thermostat
  • New OEM oil pan gasket
  • MFactory magnetic oil plug
  • New Aftermarket Intake/Exhaust manifold gaskets
  • New OEM valve seals
  • Valves lapped
  • Valve cover powder-coated original black wrinkle
  • New Aftermarket Oxygen sensor
  • New OEM spark plugs
  • New OEM spark plug wires
  • New OEM distributor cap
  • New OEM distributor rotor
  • New OEM Input shaft bearing (tranny)
  • New OEM counter shaft bearing (tranny)
  • New OEM tranny magnet
  • Tranny recently sealed with HondaBond
  • New Aftermarket axles
  • New OEM battery tie down w/new bolts_nuts
  • New Aftermarket alternator
  • New Aftermarket radiator
  • New Aftermarket radiator upper and lower hoses
  • New OEM Heater core hoses
  • New Battery
I had tried to keep the engine original as possible, but it’s starting to show its age. I really believe the cylinder block needs to be evened. I had the cylinder head fixed up nicely but it still has a small burning of fluids and leaking of fluids. I can include a spare d15b6 and/or d15z1 (vx) at no additional cost, but both are disassembled. I had planned to swap in the d15z1 next summer.  On occasion it will have the idle problem that commonly plagues these vehicles.


Not installed, but will include all or whatever parts buyer would like please let me know after winning the auction:

Exterior:
  • USDM New OEM side moldings
  • USDM 1 new driver side b-pillar molding
  • New rear quarter window molding
  • USDM 2 front arch protectors (used)
  • JDM 2 new OEM side markers (in original packaging)
  • New Rear mud flaps
  • USDM new front lip w/new OEM hardware (sold separately from lip)
  • New roof channel molding
  • Replacement front bumper (used but good condition)
  • LHD wiper spoiler (crx specific)
Suspension:
  • Optional USDM HF wheels, VERY rare but these currently have ice racing tires on them and are painted a bronze color.
Engine:
  • If buyer is interested I have a disassembled d15b6 engine, and/or a disassembled d15z1 engine (Civic Vx). 
Overall:
This has been my pride and joy for the past 5.5 years. I have slowly been building it. Next summer I had planned to have it painted (original white) and install a glass top. It is very difficult for me to list this up for sale. I had tried every which way to keep this car but it doesn’t make sense for it to sit for years in hopes of working on it again. I feel this car is right on the edge of being great with a bit of work (all of which is basically included).
The add-ons, accessories, and extras are worth more than my asking price. 

**I'm not positive if my Veteran plates can go with the car. Otherwise I may ask the seller to send them back to me**

After winning the auction:
Has to be picked up in person. I can pick buyer up from the MSP airport, Minneapolis train station, or a Minneapolis bus (Greyhound/Mega Bus) station.
If buyer is located within 8 hours from me I could deliver/meet for a fee ($50 first hour, and $25 every hour after) plus fuel cost of the Crx and my wife's car (for there and back). Full payment+estimated fuel cost/fee needs to be made for anything over an hour prior to delivery.
Buyer is expected to make a non-refundable deposit of $100 using Paypal. This is just to let me know you are serious about picking it up.
I can hold the car for 1 week extra.  If I need to hold it past a week then I will require full payment otherwise it will be re-listed.

2015 Honda CR-V performs poorly in Swedish AWD test [w/video]

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Swedish auto magazine Teknikens Värld has never been afraid to call out automakers when a vehicle fails one of its battery of examinations. Its famous Moose Test recently caught the Porsche Macan out, and a few years ago, there was a protracted argument between Teknikens Värld and Jeep over the performance of a Grand Cherokee in that evaluation.
This time, the 2015 Honda CR-V is raising the magazine's hackles, but it has nothing to do with avoiding a giant mammal. Snow is obviously an issue in Sweden, and Teknikens Värld has a test that challenges all-wheel drive systems in low-traction settings. On a slanted surface, the Swedes put the vehicles' front wheels on rollers with no traction and demands the rears accelerate away. The Honda couldn't do it. Teknikens Värld claims that it initially found the same result last year from the European CR-V, but Honda Sweden put out a software upgrade correcting the behavior in the test. This year, the CUV went back to failing.
While that's the magazine's side, Honda Sweden doesn't see the test as fair. In a statement to Teknikens Värld, the company explains the way the CUV's all-wheel drive system works. It also claims that the test isn't simulating a realistic situation. "In real conditions, regardless of the surface, there is a certain amount of friction always available for both front and rear wheels," the announcement says. "A scenario like the roll test with such a high difference in grip between the front and the rear wheels is highly unlikely."

Honda's I Like Sports ad will have you reaching for your pom-poms

Fri, May 1 2015

Autoblog editor Greg Migliore recently wrote a great piece looking at the burgeoning re-emergence of Honda as the performance brand. Now, the company is showing some reasons why that really might be the case, with a short ad from Japan titled I Like Sports. The commercial acts as a showcase for Honda's performance prowess on the street and around the track from the recent past, present, and the near future. The spot gives the company's models a chance to show why they are worth getting excited about. There are glimpses of vehicles like the Japan-only S660, upcoming Civic Type R, S2000, the preceding and forthcoming NSX, the MotoGP bike, and Formula 1 car. Despite being just a minute long, the ad does a great job at hinting at a brand that can appeal to people who want a little excitement during a drive.

Top Gear hosts' classic bikes head for auction

Thu, Apr 9 2015

The BBC seems quite certain that Top Gear is making a return to television in 2016, but James May and Richard Hammond are extremely unlikely to be among the hosts. Instead, the two of them are probably following Jeremy Clarkson into any future endeavors, but for the time being that leaves the Little One and the Slow One unemployed. They won't have to worry too much about spending money in the meantime, though, because Bonhams is selling 12 motorcyles owned by the former TG stars on April 26. "Just because I'm unemployed now doesn't mean I have to get rid of everything. I was going to sell these bikes anyway. And those paintings, and my collection of Scalextric cars. Honest," May joked to Bonhams. However, the auction house was clear in its announcement that the cycles were consigned to the Spring Stafford Sale in the UK months before the Top Gear fracas. Eight of the bikes come from May's collection and are generally small-bore, Japanese models. They include a 49cc 1974 Yamaha FS1-E and a 1976 Suzuki AP50 E, but there's also a very attractive 1980 Ossa 250cc MAR trials bike. If you're looking for a bit more performance, Hammond's four offering include a 2010 Norton Commando 961SE and a 1970 Triton 500cc cafe racer. He's also selling a Yamaha FS1-E, though a year newer than May's. Unfortunately the Vincent Black Shadow and Honda RC30 the hosts are riding in these photos aren't part of the lots, but the whole list of the available models can be read in the announcement below and checked out in the gallery, above. Bonhams Spring Stafford Sale will include 12 motorcycles belonging to Richard Hammond and James May, former presenters of the popular motoring programme, Top Gear. May and Hammond discussed the sale of their respective motorcycles in their usual humorous manner: "Just because I'm unemployed now doesn't mean I have to get rid of everything," said May. "I was going to sell these bikes anyway. And those paintings, and my collection of Scalextric cars. Honest". Hammond added: "As a serious collector of motorcycles, it's important to review one's stable regularly, and the Bonhams Stafford sale is the ideal opportunity to move bikes on and possibly acquire new ones. I also have a canoe, and some Wharfedale hi-fi speakers, if anyone's interested".
