Just picked up one of the cleanest EFs I've seen in a while.  $550 for (pasted from craigslist):

650 CASH car needs to be gone. you get everything in this thread BRAND NEW hasport mounts and all
91 civic LX 267xxx miles on chassis
Clean title in hand
5speed(no grinds)
exedy clutch put in a year ago
short shifter
new KYB AGX's installed with coilovers 4000 miles ago
new front pads and rotors 4000 miles ago
stock Si harness out of an EG
p06 ecu(virgin)
p28 ecu(virgin)
Stainless header
new exhaust from converter back(very quiet)
motor is a d15b7 bottom end, z6 head and dizzy. car ran strong before spun bearing







Haven't even got it off the trailer yet.  Probably going to swap in a complete Z6 and sell the mounts and such, unless I can find a killer deal on a cable B series tranny since I have a B18B sittin' in the garage with a blown HG.

There is just a tiny little spot that's on the driver's side just behind the back door on the quarter panel.  The car is already flat black, so I might sand blast it and bondo it up and repaint that one spot.

I figured you might be the one to talk to.  I just can't figure out what would net more money: throw in the Z6 and sell the mounts/linkage, go ahead and get a tranny and do the B18 swap, or jsut part everything out.  The suspenson on this thing is dangerously fresh

lol, I got to thinking about the car this morning and realized that I still have a complete 90 integra parts car back home in WV.  looks like this civic is getting the b18a1 swap with the goodies that the car came with.  should be fun, i've never done anything b series guess the hardest thing is the axles

Depends on your point of view and what you are after.

It's far from the win. Sure you might impress a few 19 year old boys but no one cares that you can make a piece of shit car faster than a stock or modified Subaru.  At the end of the day it's still a piece of shit and you're still driving it.

This.



The car was bought to make a profit.  Rust free EF with some sort of swap should bring in a few more dollars than I will have in it.  I have almost everything I need to do some sort of swap, be it Z6 or B18.  I'm probably going to take the suspension off to save for my CRX that is also in WV

axles are easy


90-93 integra halfshaft
90-93 integra axles


Be forwarned after 20 years those halfshafts dont want to separate from the axles. A very heavy hammer and skilled hands are needed to get those fuckers apart.

Agreed.  Although I'd like it less for pissing off subie and evo people than just for how much of a blast it would be with snowtires and boost.  Although it would probably be almost as good with just an LSD and some good snows.

I have some rally-driver fantasies that I try to live out in the winter.

It's not.  It just seems that way because 9000% of you lack originality.

I figured the ultimate way to piss subaru owners off about what they actually care about.  You just have to buy cuter cars than them. :P
