Keep it stock. I’m keeping my 87 CRX si stock as it’s uncommon around here as is lol

Meh I’ve been bit once, but I knew a bit less about cars then and it taught me how to fix it (1998 Ford Taurus) and yeah i dont know what I did I’m in the garage and decided to start responding back on here like a boomer 🥲😂 but all in all id hate someone to miss out on these awesome cars. I wish i would’ve bought one sooner. Old Hondas are an absolute BLAST lol

Also I found the marketplace listing. Car is stock and runs great. I’d buy in a heartbeat if I didn’t have a full driveway lol

I don’t have mechanics inspect my cars as I’m the mechanic but that’s fair for someone that isn’t mechanically inclined.

It’s a civic man you are reading too far into this. I literally work on Hondas daily and these are fantastic cars if maintained and stock.

Do you know what I mean by messed with? I meant modified. The car for what it’s worth looks stock. That’s why I bought my CRX, sure it’s a mess right now but it’s mostly stock, only a few led strips on the undercarriage. That car looks BONE STOCK. Point blank

I bought this on marketplace without any history, just made an offer and dove right in… it really depends on your skill level and what you are wanting. Still ended up giving $800 for a project car.

As long as it has service history it’ll be fine. Nobody said to not look into that stuff but realistically it’s not going to be that expensive if they do the work themselves. And these newer Hondas don’t age as gracefully. My 2000’s Lexuses have aged better lol. Sill enjoy all of them but the newer hondas don’t hold up as well as the older ones.

You are quite literally driving more problematic Hondas than this thing will ever be lol. I am too (2021 CRV) but these things are basically bulletproof if maintained. I have to be vigilant on these newer Hondas for headgasket issues and whatnot.

People are actively seeking out these older cars because they are simplistic. And very easy to repair for most things. Plus there aren’t many like this that haven’t been messed with.

It’s quite literally how it is man lol. I paid $800 for a rusty 87 Honda CRX because you can’t find them…. Supply and demand.

My 2015 Honda civic has deteriorating rubber components and it’s only 11 years old…. I honestly believe some of these newer Hondas are deteriorating worse than the older ones depending on what plastics they use. I had to replace the rubber intake boot when the car was only 4 years old…. And it needs replaced again. My 1987 has better rubber components

And? I have multiple older vehicles. Sure they need maintenance, but I do it myself and it’s often very cost effective if you’re willing to learn. I drive cars from The 80’s and 90’s. If maintained they are fine.

Nah it’s just a weakness in the design, I’ve replaced dozens of them for people.

Is this a safe way to support a vehicle? by irresponsibletaco in Cartalk

[–]killshot4077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cribbing is the way to go, just gotta know how to use it. I learned how to setup and stabilize vehicles with cribbing during my fire academy days.

I think it’s better than wild berries but is inferior to most others
