Don't think I'm a traitor, guys, but I picked up a non-wagon tonight. No pics yet, I just got back and it's late.
It's a '90 EX sedan
OBD0 B16a swap (hmotorsonline fullmealdeal)
Hasport mounts, linkage, harness
lowered on LS meshies
CRX dash
alarm
exhaust
strut bar
short shifter
CAi...etc.etc. all the goodies.

I normally wouldn't touch a modded car (someone else's work, anyway :lol: ) but this was too good a deal to pass on, plus I knew the car, owner, and the guy that did the work, so I think it'll be ok once I wrench it up to my standards.

Needs a steering rack and a window motor- junkyard here I come!

    Thats cool Bam. Whats your plans for it? Just keep it to add to your collection or flip it?

    YOU GOT HIS SEDAN! HOLY ISH! Nice pickup!
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    Yeah, when the price came that low I couldn't resist. I'll probably keep it around for awhile. Talk about a sleeper 8) That bitch is quick!

    You know, if I was going to do anything much to it, I would probably 'unswap' it, put a nice d16a6 back in, and put all the goodies in a wagon. IDK, I've been admiring nasty EDs for awhile now.

    When you get ready.
  • RevmaynardRevmaynard Council Member
    I'll be ready this weekend. So lemme know, you just gotta go with me to go get the parts. I got some work and sold some parts. So I wanna get it done while I can.

    I've got a 90 EX with a B18A1 swap and love it. I've had it since 1999. It's a great fwd car. I like have both a sedan 2wd and a wagon rt4wd in the family.

    That would be pretty awesome as well.

    A few Qs:

    Did that car have RSX seats in it at one time? Still?

    Is the hood kind of beat and possibly held with hood pins?

    If not my bad. If it is then I almost bought that car...twice...before buying my current wagon.

    Seats: I'm not sure. Has decent stockers now. Hood? A little bent, but no pins. Got it from Jriley of the efsquad. The swap and stuff has been done in the last year.

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHH you bastards who drive cool sedans :twisted: . I want one but with six cars the wife would kill me. I am trying to convince her to leave the wagon as a weekend warrior and get a sedan for the turbo d16 but so far not convinced. She wants her wagon :evil:

    Nice ride BAM.

    I've been out all weekend, haven't gotten to work on the little beastie yet.

    What's that behind that rear wheel? 8)

    173.jpg

    Thinking about a rack- all my rides must carry bikes

    2.25?" - I'll add a big resonator, it needs a new cat. as well.

    PO is a frisbee golfer :roll:

    I think a rack more along the lines of yours and Anne's would look better. I'm excited to check this thing out, you gotta let me hit Vtec. :twisted:
  • realtimefunrealtimefun Senior Wagonist

    As soon as I get it fixed where it goes in the general direction suggested by steering wheel position! :P
  • RevmaynardRevmaynard Council Member
    Lol! Well if I'm not going to be working next weekend I'll ride up one day if you aren't doing much.
  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    I'm trying to decide whether to keep it or not. It has some "custom" stuff I'm not too crazy about- I got really pissed when I couldn't get in because of the alarm/keyless BS- it has rear handles on the front/no keyholes and locks auto. Not crazy about the CRX dash, either. Looks good, I just prefer stock. Lemme get the AC and steering sorted and we'll see.
  • Marc_EE9Marc_EE9 Senior Wagonist
    bummer about the handles. thats why i left one on my wagon and civic still with a keyhole, just incase!

    got any pics of the CRX dash ??
