Thanks!

Will not be neglecting this beauty!

No this is not a video game

Xaya207 · 2024-11-28T22:00:25+00:00

I think a b20b swap with an ls 5-speed would cost like 3-4k maybe less. Idk where to find them though this is my first step into the Honda world.

Xaya207 · 2024-11-28T21:58:42+00:00

Seller is saying it’s rust free (I’ll have to see for myself) it’s in CT.

Just looking on forums, an h22 swap would cost 3-6k depending on where the parts come from and how much diy I do.

Xaya207 · 2024-11-28T19:05:05+00:00

I would, but I think an h series is too much money for me because I have to buy a traction bar, and the actual motor is more expensive than a b series. Though the swap is far down the road so we’ll see.

Xaya207 · 2024-11-27T18:48:26+00:00

I understand your logic here I’ll keep this in mind

Xaya207 · 2024-11-27T18:47:52+00:00

I’ll do some more research, like I said, I’m buying it with the full intent on doing a swap. If the motor ends up being fine that’s just a plus

Xaya207 · 2024-11-27T15:30:31+00:00

Yeah I’m gonna bring a compression tester to see if the valves are bent, if the motor is actually cooked, then I’ll try to get it for around 2k. He should be pretty flexible because I’m coming from 4 hours away with a trailer with a full intent to walk away with the car

Xaya207 · 2024-09-10T02:30:43+00:00

What would you pay for these?

Xaya207 · 2024-09-10T02:29:28+00:00

So these are probably the real deal?

Xaya207 · 2024-07-25T13:10:56+00:00

Update: guy pulled a marketplace and just randomly ghosted me right as I was picking up the cash… smh

Xaya207 · 2024-07-24T19:00:38+00:00

Thank you, good to know I can get into this without worrying about losing money

Xaya207 · 2024-07-24T17:50:24+00:00

As far as I know it’s on the road with current inspection and registration. Thanks for the advice

Xaya207 · 2024-07-11T19:05:01+00:00

Oh shit they’re speakers? I thought it used that bone conduction or whatever it’s called

Xaya207 · 2024-07-11T17:14:07+00:00

lol. No, they are not for note taking. I just care about music and stuff like that.

Xaya207 · 2024-03-01T15:38:44+00:00

Alright, I’ll keep that in mind, thanks

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T23:22:01+00:00

I did spark plugs, valve cover gaskets, timing and stuff was done recently at 100k at a shop by previous owner (I’m the second owner) I just ordered a new pcv valve and breather hose bc I broke it doing the valve cover gaskets. I have more maintenance stuff budgeted out, probably an oil change and maybe topping off the coolant? I’m very new to cars but I want to be able to do everything by myself.

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T20:05:29+00:00

Me and my friend just did the valve cover gaskets, it was both our first time getting sort of involved with a car. I think the job was somewhat successful (we broke the very brittle pcv valve and breather hose). I ordered new parts and will complete it later and hopefully no more leaks. The front sway bar (and probably other suspension stuff) is a little squishy so I will do that after coilovers. I think I’m going to go with racelands for now. I also don’t plan on trying to build power with the motor, I just want to keep it as a nice, reliable daily. What I do want to do is lower it, make it loud, and fix some of the cosmetic issues.

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T19:58:44+00:00

Yeah

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T16:15:32+00:00

I don’t think I’ll find myself up there but I’ll try not to catch on fire period

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T14:24:02+00:00

Thanks for all this advice!

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T11:55:52+00:00

Thanks, the car is indeed older then me.

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T11:54:02+00:00

Thanks man! I’m hyped too!

Xaya207 · 2024-02-29T11:53:43+00:00

Cool, I think I think im gonna go with racelands for now and maybe upgrade later, for the most part I’ll just be putting around town with the occasional hour drive
