I'm not sure if you are still in maryland, but you may want to jump on this. I can vouche for the car, he is one of my good friends. I've driven it and rode in it many times...

This is a steal. posted on my forum: NOW $3995

Ive invested $10k+ in this car, im only looking to get $8k for it, this could be the best daily driver anyone has ever owned, it sure as hell has been for me.

So again, $8,000 firm, or trade for something of equal value.

Car is being sold AS IS with absolutely no warranty of any kind.


Here it is:

This car was professionally sourced, built and tuned by Rick and Jeff over at Trick Engineering, the car is on their website on the dyno page.
www.trickengineering.com

i have all reciepts from the build.

1996 Honda Civic Dx (EJ6)
Milano Red
5 spd
Body over 200k on it
Engine Has about 20k
Clutser is out of a different car, so it reads 148xxx

Engine:

B20b4 bottom end (Honda CRV)
Bored/Honed .20 over
Endyn 11.5:1 CR Pistons
Eagle Rods
ARP Hardware
All new gaskets/Seals
Valvoline VR1 oil since its build
Always OEM Honda Oil Filter

P72 (Integra GSR) Cylinder Head
Stock Ports
Supertech Valves/Valvesprings/Retainers
Skunk2 Stage3 Camshafts

GSR Throttle Body
Heavily Ported GSR Intake Manifold (No secondaries, done by Rick @ TE)

PasswordJDM Carbonfiber Intake
DC Sports ITR 4-1 Header w custom 2.5" Collector
Trick Engineering Custom Exhaust, looks stock, but is really a 2.5" catless system with a magnaflow muffler, very small tip
Magnecore plug wires
NGK plugs
No A/C
No P/S
Yonaka Radiator (Small radiator, dual core)

Transmission:

Integra GSR Transmission

Suspension:

KYB AGX shocks all round

New Lower Control Arms

Rims/Rubber:

16" Rota Circuit 8's in Full ROyal Sports Bronze
Kelly EVO-Z tires (z rated)

Misc:

Authentic CTR shift boot
Evo VIII Shift ****
GSR Gauge cluster
Eclipse Headunit (the brand)
Carbonfiber Hood
New Brakes


The BAD:

Hard to get an inspection sticker for this car, im sure there is a way , ijust dont have the time.

Trans will grind going into second at high RPMs when shifting quickly, might be the trans, might need a clutch adjustment, might need bushings, shifts fine under normal driving, will sometimes (very rarely, grind lightly going into 5th gear...again, could be nothing major)

Axles are clicking, after the car was stolen months ago the axles were replaced, but with cheap replacements, OEM GSR or aftermarket axles will do this car good, will replace depending o nthe sale price.

pics:

















Updating this for Jeff, he has no internet right now...

He needs to sell this car and get into a SUV for his business asap. Therefor, he has dropped the price to $3995 and he is entertaining ANY trades. I told him he is insane for selling this car at that price. Although, he will be keeping the Rota wheels that are on it.

The bad:
I haven't looked at the car, so I can not diagnose it. Jeff thinks one of the valves is stuck or possibly bent as the car is skipping and not running 100%. Regardless, at this price it's a steal. As most of you know he's put over $10k into this car in the past year.

If interested please PM me, I will answer your questions as Jeff will not be available to answer your private messages.

Thanks, Z

Here's a few pics from last summer:

It is daily driven and in maryland... never heard about the bored out b18 stuff, but probably because my knowledge of b20's is slim.
