New in Virginia 91 Supercharged Shuttle

pdcpdc Band Wagon
in New User Introductions
Hi. I'm new to this board. Just picked up this familiar wagon on Saturday. The guy I bought it from didn't keep it but a few months. I really didn't need another car, but I couldn't resist.This car is very clean and very nicely modded. I plan to have this be my long term daily driver.

The first thing I need to do was get this thing off the ground. I took out the Godspeed RS's and put in some Tokiko Illumina's that I had laying around. The car handles much better and now has clearance for my mile long gravel lane.

I'll post some updates later on. Here is the build thead from this forum: viewtopic.php?t=7521

I used the previous owners photo here. Will get some current ones.

    I probably paid too much, but I really wanted this thing. I will be taking good care of it. I probably won't put it on the road till spring. I need to sell one of my other cars, probably my Del Sol. It seems the speedometer is way off. Is there any way to calibrate it?

    It may be a bit till I get the new wagon registered. I need to sell off one of the fleet first. Might not be able to do anything that soon.

    I think the guy got rid of it because he only had one car and decided he need 4wd for the winter so he could get to work.

    Saw this wagon for sale on hondatech, amazing ride, congrats on the purchase!! Whats your plans with the ride?
  • pdcpdc Band Wagon
    I'm gonna use it for daily driving. Need to fix the AC. Probably just maintain it as is.
  • pdcpdc Band Wagon
    Finally, just got this registered today. Wagon fun begins tomorrow.

    OMG, how did you end up with it?

    I know the First owner & the second owner.. Then it went to a 3rd guy.. Then a fourth.. and now you...

    I hope your taking care of it! it is a really nice car...

    The last owner was meant to let me know when he sold it..

    If your looking for answers on the build..
    1991KA8 was 2nd owner (suspension drop & lip)
    Seekerone was the 1st owner and did most of the conversions including (JRSC, DA interior, PW, rear disc)

    Can I ask how much you stole $$$ her for? I really like this car and shouldn't have skipped the opportunity to buy it..
  • pdcpdc Band Wagon
    I paid $4500 for it. More than I wanted to, and almost didn't buy it. I'm glad I did though. It's at the shop right now getting a 4 wheel alignment since I changed the suspension and raised it up some. I was hoping to find out some history on it. I read 1991KA8' post. I was curious to find out approximately how many miles are on the engine. It is running perfect. Today is the first day I am daily driving it. Upgraded the sound system last night.

    very awesome this wagon has made its way to Virginia ...
    i hope to get to c it up close and personal ...
  • 1991KA81991KA8 Wagonist
    WOW....just wow.. lol. cant believe it went from my garage in central florida all the way up there haha
  • DRMORTYDRMORTY Council Member
    Yeah, this is the third owner since you.. Should have sold it to me.. ;)
  • pdcpdc Band Wagon
    BJ,

    Can you tell me about the motor.
    *any mods made to it?
    *do you know about how many miles were on it when you sold it?

    *Also, do you know about how many miles were on the chassis?

    The car is in good hands. I keep my stuff well maintained. I have put in a new AC compressor and all new O rings. The exhaust was, not overly but a bit loud for me so I installed a VA required cat and an additional resonator.

    You and Steve did an excellent job making this car what it is.

    I finally got a copy of binhacker. I will probably make a cable. I now need to learn this tuning program.
