so i been putting together this recovered theft 98 gsr sedan. my buddie who works at my old towing company calls me and tell me he is picking up a 94 gsr sedan for junk. he asked me if i wanted it for parts. he told me to give him $150 (what he would of got for scrap) and he dropped it off. long story short. the kid registered the car last dec. smashed it soon after. it sat in another tow lot. at the tow lot they stole the head and ecu. the tranny had a huge hole in it where i can see the gears
but anyways, to my suprise, when he delivered the car, it had alot of aftermarket shit still on it. it had skunk2 pro s one piece coilovers, skunk2 upper control arms/camber kit, skunk2 rear camber kit, skunk2 lower tie bar, skunk 2 rear lower control arms. it also has a greddy cat back exhaust, jdm 4-1 headers, removeable steering wheel, faded/ripped type r interior, jl auido componets in the front lj 6x9's in the rear.
the car itself was mangled. but i needed alot of the parts for my sedan. i ended up taking the acura webb rims because i had mitch mached steelies. the 4 doors. my doors had been hit before and where kinda wavy. the new ones had the moldings shaved but where clean.
the only down side is the car seems like it was sitting in a puddle or something. everything is kinda rusty. i got some sand paper, some CLR and other cleaning stuff. i may paint everythnig red and black.

steve wants the iacv

-

-
how much for the booster and master cyl???
iacv was already gone. i already sold more parts then the $150 i am going to pay for the car.
iam keeping the booster and mastercylender to retrofit on my 89 accord (upgraded brake ssystem)
-
damn, i just read the instruction on the back of the clr bottle, i cant use it on aluminum
-
Brand new wirewheel and wd-40 you'll be fine. A new wire wheel will tear through that rust dont use that one in the garage that is 2 years old you will waste hours using it.
You willing to ship some of the smalller stuff?
-
ill def ship you some of the smaller stuff. we can work out a deal. i need my stock b16 intake ported, i need a 70mm tb spacet and gasket. i still have the 70mm tb i brought from you a while back. ill prob be taking some of the sensors from this set up, but let me know if u want the intake/tb
i am not sure, i think a wire wheel might eat through the aluminum. i dunno. i got a larg sand blast cabinet from harbor freight a few months ago, now i got a reaason to put it together.
-
Run the drill at low rpm and you will be fine. Cool Ill make you a list of stuff. Sandblaster wise hope you have a big compressor those things burn through air hella fast and are uber dirty. I threw my blast cabinet outside got the shop to dirty. I would hit the rust with the wire wheel first to get the bigger stuff off then use the blast cabinet after
Maybe we can work a deal out on a spacer/gasket for trade of some of the gsr parts
-
i got a air power dremel that i use my wire wheel on. ill try that out.
we can def work out a trade deal.
-
chris, what did u want
-
You didnt get my pm?
-
i updated the rear camber kit with a lil clr/scrubbing paing/paint. looks a lil more presentable

Hey, you want to wrap the transmission internals so they don't get disorganised and ship them off?
-
