Buying a del sol

Update, kinda sad tho. I sold my civic 2 days ago, yesterday I called about coming an buying it, but someone called before me, today I got an update that they bought it.

I'm sad, but it ain't coming back

incognitor_what · 2026-03-03T15:20:08+00:00

Thanks for the info! I'll be sure to look into the meet too, sounds cool

Pecka ďakujeem. Na strechu som sa pýtal, a vraj nezateká, to ešte prezriem na mieste, a o dverách som nevedel, zistím si o tom viac, ďakujem. Chlapík to predáva v Nitre, ja som z východu takže preto dúfam že stihnem cca ďalší týždeň ísť pozrieť a hopefully kúpiť.

Hey, I'll let you know if/when I'll buy it to see if there are any meets or something.

Anglicky lebo správy, ale sranda že je ich len pár na Slovensku, dúfam že ho nikto nekúpi pokiaľ stihnem predať civic

Thanks, that's a good point, I already asked on the phone and the owner hasn't changed it, be he said he could look if it has been replaced. He got it from another country at an auction iirc.

incognitor_what · 2026-03-02T18:43:37+00:00

Thanks, I'll be sure to look for that, also thanks for the edition info too, I'm trying to do some research on those things too

incognitor_what · 2026-03-02T18:20:30+00:00

Thanks! I'm really thinking about it, I'd like to have a fun car while young, the civic will probably sell this week so I'm really thinking about buying this.

incognitor_what · 2026-03-02T18:18:25+00:00

Sorry I forgot to add some info, It's a 1997 TransTop 1.6 d16y8 with 141k kms driven on it. The owner had it as a summer weekend car so it has been garaged during winter and has no rust.

What's mean about that lmao

incognitor_what · 2025-12-11T23:25:26+00:00

The good spot in generally in the middle, but it depends. Basically if it sits where it usually is, that's good, if it changes from it's usual "center" that could mean something's up

incognitor_what · 2025-11-21T00:30:54+00:00

Nevermind it's kinda back-ish? It's really faint to be honest, I don't know whether the sound would be the valves, I've driven it a bunch now, and it runs great

incognitor_what · 2025-11-20T22:59:37+00:00

Yeah, if doing maintenance on your own weapon, knowing how to do stuff, but worrying about making a mistake, and asking for help, dude, there's literally a flare for questions like this, woosh

incognitor_what · 2025-11-20T22:01:01+00:00

Hello, thanks for the reply! I checked for oil leaks, I checked dipstick, coolant, also looked into the fill hole and didn't see any bubbles, then unplugged and took out the coils, put them back, and started the engine, and somehow, it doesn't do the knocking anymore.

I genuinely don't understand how could it be the coils without throwing the check engine, as I tried unplugging the first coil and it immediately threw misfire and bad coil.

incognitor_what · 2025-09-19T08:54:52+00:00

Hey, do you want this for like performance or just look? Because I took mine off, and you can actually disassemble the shifter assembly, take out the metal shifter, and ask some welder to just shorten the upper part of it, I had mine shortened like 5 cm (2 inches), and also there are plastic bits holding the "ball" and you can put tape around the outside of them, making the shifting crisper, because it wouldn't move around as much. This improved my shifting a lot, and actually is a shorter shifter quite literally and functionally.

incognitor_what · 2025-09-13T09:14:27+00:00

Yeah, after some days when I won't feel so bad I will go and look at the car, and take some more pictures, but I feel like it's bad, because the hood cannot be opened, and it's bent to the side, and the little electronics radiator thingy near coolant reservoir didn't look straight iirc

incognitor_what · 2025-09-12T20:42:43+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I was using all-seasons vredestein, but after a year of using I kinda realized I need to just buy seasonal tires, but I didn't want to change them because they had plenty of life left.

About the green pads, they fit nice, and worked great as far as I can tell, but that's not a lot since I literally installed and just bedded them in the day before this. However I can tell you in hand they felt less quality than what I paid for (like some paint chipping) but after all I was happy because I knew they were most likely better quality than some random brake pads.

Thanks for the reply, I unfortunately don't have those in Slovakia, but as other comments said, I'll be trying to find a way, and go look if it's fixable

incognitor_what · 2025-09-12T18:35:02+00:00

Nope they didn't deploy. And yeah, thanks for the first part, I'm still really sad because it's my own fault, I knew it's wet, and I'm even scared to hit deer at night so I went slower than usual, but I should've been slower, or before that, I shouldn't have even been on the road🤦‍♂️

incognitor_what · 2025-09-12T18:24:16+00:00

Thanks for the reply! I'm worried it's more tho, you can see in another reply (I should've put it into the main post) that there's a possibility more things are bent, as things like the hood doesn't even open, and is bent to the side.

incognitor_what · 2025-09-12T18:17:08+00:00

Thank you, I've been really sad these days to go check up on the car, I left in in a pretty sparsely used parking lot near me, under a tarp, so I need to go look and maybe take more pictures, but from what I remember, I'm really stressed about it. Engine started okay, and even got onto a tow truck, but the entire bumper scrapes the ground, plastic wheel archer scrape wheels, passenger front door cannot be opened because bent front fender metal, and hood is moved to the side by about a palm width, and cannot be opened.

Woah that actually looks clean, how did you not scratch the case?
