New from Virginia - 1991 Supercharged Wagon

JDMVirusJDMVirus Band Wagon
in New User Introductions
Whats up guys? My name is Chris. I recently bought a 1991 Civic Wagon. Ive wanted one for the longest time and I finally found one! Ive had my fair share of Hondas since I was 16. Started off with a 2001 Prelude, went to a 2003 CR-V, then to a 1993 Original B17 Integra, then got a 2003 Tl-S. Traded that for a 1993 Hatch with Type R swap. I sold the hatch and got the wagon and Im happy with it so far. I found the wagon in Florida and made a spur of the moment trip to pick it up. My dad lives in Florida so that made it a little easier. I spent a few days with him while I was there. Heres some details on the car..

Mileage on the body is unknown. Has an EDM cluster. Motor is a stock D16A6 with about 85k. It is supercharged tuned on 10psi. LHT header back exhaust, Godspeed RS coilovers, 15x7 Kosei K1's with 27 offset, dyed interior, full DA sedan seat swap.. Thats about all the important things. Heres some pictures. Enjoy!

  • bam-bambam-bam Council Member
    Nice! I'm glad to see this car stayed on the forum.
  • DRMORTYDRMORTY Council Member
    It surfaced again! And, it left FL.. :) :(

    I should have bought this when I had the chance... This is the 3rd owner since the guy (seekerone) who built it..

    I hope you take good care of her.. Really Nice Ride and a lot of nice mods.

    Here is a older built thread from the second owner/enthusiast:

    I am in Harrisonburg. And the lip I believe was custom made by one of the previous owners

    Thanks for the links! I read through the thread that was on this site and noticed you were trying to buy it. If I decide to come off this, youll be the first to know. I dont have a problem driving halfway to FL to meet you if it comes to that :wink:

    Super clean wagon dude! Always had a soft spot for white wagons.
  • mrb88encmrb88enc Wagonist
    Congrats on the swanky-ness! Suuuper clean too. I have plans to one day do the same, but with some sort of K series. Keep up the good work!

    The lip looks like it's made from the bottom of another bumper cover, inverted. Neat.

    If youre interested in buying the lip Ill sell it to you. Its too big for the bumps and hills we have here in the valley
  • da9broda9bro Wagonist
    if you ever want to part with that lip, let me know ;)
  • ragenasianragenasian Moderator
    These threads are not for trying to buy parts off of wagons. This is an introduction thread, same goes for every other part of this forum except the marketplace.

    IF you want the lip PM HIM or post in the MARKETPLACE.
  • da9broda9bro Wagonist
    woah woah seabiscuit, that just a friendly way of saying I like his lip. no need for thread nazi trolling

    That is exactly what it is.. Previous Owner got a Brand NEW Bumper and used the old one to make a Lip.. Just Inverted it and cut off what he didn't need.. :) It looks really good in person..

    I hope you do enjoy it.. I am definitely jealous!
    I'd really appreciate the heads up if you do ever decide to part with it..

    REALLY NICE CLEAN & TASTEFUL RIDE :)

    Glad to see the car went to someone who will still be on the forum!

    I'm sure you know, but it was WOTM at one time...

    I would do that, but since I am a new member I guess I havent "participated" enough to have access to those features. If you would like to grant me access to Messaging and the Marketplace I will gladly post there

    I read that in the build thread. Pretty exciting to here that!

    The wagon, unfortunately, was neglected a tad bit in its life. Looks like someone had the hatch open and backed into something. Damage to the hatch and the roof. Thats why it is not aligned correctly. There is also a huge leak at the front of the headliner by the windshield. Previous owner did not tell me about the leak when I bought the car and on the way home from picking it up I ran into a rainstorm and got completely soaked. Im trying to narrow it down to the windshield or roof rack. (It leaks through the holes where the sun visors mount on the inside.)

    You will get access soon enough. Those that dont like the moderators trolling the forum are more than welcome to take it elsewhere.

    1. It was actually Hinge Binding that cause the damage on the rear lip of the roof and hatch.. I believe it was even before seekerone.

    2. I think 1991KA8 had the windshield replaced, so the leak may be from the windshield company..

    I know both of those guys and they were both Honda Techs, which is how the car got so many nice mods.. and they are both Garage Parkers, and kept it really clean. The last guy traded off a EK b16 car and was out running it at the track since day one. And he didn't do anything but drive it and change the wheels.. I really doubt he kept it as clean too.

    Did you give him the $5,000 he was looking for? I felt it was a little steep. But, it is a really nice ride.
  • JDMVirusJDMVirus Band Wagon
    Wow, Im glad you know the past of this car because I sure didnt lol. Its nice to know that previous owners were techs at Honda. I didnt pay 5k.. I was able to talk him down a bit but he wasnt very easy to work with lol

    LOL, yeah he wasn't easy to work with, which is why you probably ended up with it and not me.. ;)

    Clean, love the set up always wondered how a s/c wagon would do.

    It does great! With the 440 injectors and a slightly heavy foot the gas mileage suffers a bit. But if you stay off the pedel and drive normally I get about 30-32mpg around town

    I had been looking at that car for a while on craigslist when I was looking at mine, but the price was too steep for me. Congrats on the purchase!
  • 1slowagon1slowagon New Wagonist
    Yep, congrats man. I was also looking at that for a while but did not have a free weekend to go up there. I know it sounds crazy since I am all the way in Southern Cali. But I was seriously going to fly there and drive it back. I still got the guys' number written down right in front of me. If I am not mistaken his name is Matt. Really glad thou, that someone from this forum pick it up. If you ever think of letting it go pm me, but ONLY if DRMORTY turns it down, cuz I believe he has first dibs..lol
  • 1991KA81991KA8 Wagonist
    sigh.....glad to see my old car stay on the board. an yeah front lip i took the old bumper off and just fliped it upside down.but for sure take the time to look through my old build thead cause there is alot of small detail info in there. was a great car for me for uhmmmm over 4 years with zero problems. you will love it for sure i know i did/do. congrats though my man for sure. iam just glad it made it out of florida so i dont have to look at it at a meet here local lol.. sucks.
  • 1991KA81991KA8 Wagonist
    side note...dude i sold it to had to put a windsheild in it and from the sounds of it didnt seal it in right. cause there was zero leaks up there. and for the hatch the hindges rusted out and it pulls the roof and puts it in a bind. which made it wavey up there. really does just need a new hatch. did he give you all the extra parts i gave him with it. i gave him the rest of the black seatbelts and a hatch full of crap for it.
