I'l cut to the chase, Im looking for something to drift, if you fancy some vtec or need something cheaper to run this is ideal and still way cool.

I got the car as a daily driver as its good on fuel and reletavely easy to get around in so its not got alot of performance mods.

Black recaro drivers seat
momo wheel
climate control (rare in EK's)
integra type R hubs & brake setup (5x114)
BBS RS's (obviously, lol) worth atleast £800
10mm spacers
tokico gas shocks/w coilover sleeves
B18c4 exhaust mani
spoon decat (rattling atm, needs inners spot welding back in place)
ARC corner splitters (over £200!!)
full EK9 exterior (no mouldiungs on bumpers, and all oem w/ lips)
tegiwa imports spoiler tilter brackets (adjustable)
tegiwa imports reg plate tilter
JDM sized plates
tegiwa imports cooling plate
vision rear tow hook
HKS mushroom filter
password JDM engine bay dress up items;
vtec soloniod cover
battery tie down
rad support

The engine is a JDM B16a with a EK9 gearbox (with LSD), its got one of the most violent vtec crossover noises iv ever heard and iv been in the honda game for years, when vtec pops in people stop and look, lol.

I blew the engine a while back and becuase i loved it so much rather than dropping a 1.8 in I fully rebuilt it, reconned head, crank re ground, new bearings, new rings everything, the engine technically has like 150 miles on it.

There are a couple of minor issues that i will address before going ahead with a trade;
02 sensor missing, burning oil on startup (this is the head, i will be taking the head back to be redone, if it persists im going to get my money back and take it elsewhere), rattling decat (needs inners welding back inplace, or gut it out), and a broken ebay shortshifter (oops, lol), il replace it with oem or a buddyclub one.

The car has somewhat of a shady past in that it is too fast to be a standard B16a but i cant find anything stamped, i think it has to be cams and or ecu tuning, when it originally came over it had all genuine mugen bodykit (not to my taste but expensive none the less), mugen suspension (was changed as it wasnt height adjustable), and mugen twin loop exhaust (agian not to my taste), so im willing to bet it has a history of being road raced in japan.

Id be lying if i said i havnt given it some, vtecs ask for it, lol, before the rebuild i just beat my friends EK9, now I eat it, EP3's are nothing either.

Anyway, the build is here:

how much money are we talking ?
BTW you are one of the TOA, so im local to you i think.
 
Yeah I'm in TOA, you shold join the forum if your local, were having the 3rd monthly meet tomorrow night, its for all (cool) jap cars btw not just honda's, you could have a look at the car too.

Id be looking for about 5k for it, the wheels and tyres are worth about £800 so less without them.
 
i heard you drive your car hard after a rebuild so everything beds in correctly or something like that, my friend did this with his 550bhp evo.

lovely civic btw!
 
are the minor issues sorted yet? if so possible R33 GTS25T Spec 1.5 Manual on the horizon could be available.
