i bought mine with 75k kms for 5 grand last year, all stock no problems. Your da looks really nice and all but i don't think there is that big a market for 20 year old hondas, unless you are a real enthusiast. Good luck with sale anyway!

Cool, thats what I want to know. Thanks, I'll lower the price a bit and see how it goes.

Unfortunately our cars have lost a lot of value in the last few years although this is true for the majority of the used car market.

Just a couple of pics, before and after, of what I have been working on for the last couple of days-

re doing all the bushings plus new front bearings, ball joints, camber arms, tie rod ends to go with the traction bar I installed a few months ago. saving at the moment to get an ASR subframe brace as well and possibly a set of proper coilovers to replace the Koni/GC combo I currently have.
This stuff is all off the red car, but I dont think I'll have time in the next couple of weeks to get it all on to the turbo teg. at least all the arduous and time consuming stuff is done though..

Hi guys ,
so i removed my older engine yesturday, had a bit of trouble getting g-box off it (had one rounded bolt) but its off , i need to buy a toruqe wrench 2moz so i can do up everything ive undone properly, and a clutch alignment tool? lol because the h/d clutch was only installed on the older engine less than 6 months befor car became inactive, and it still felt/feels awesome so i will check it of course but i would like to re-use it.
you could say i didnt relise how much work was involved in swapping a g-box from one motor to the next was for a first timer . im renting the engine hoist, and i only have it till monday 2pm, so im now not sure ill have the g-box on the newer engine in time to drop it in , so im thinking worst case ill have to drop newer engine in , add g-box later, only thing is i removed old motor and g-box out the top, so i would have to add g-box from the bottom ?

really wanted to have the g-box on new engine and sitting on the mounts by monday ,
ohh and the best bit is that im working night shift all weekend and monday! gotta find time to sleep in there somewhere(yeah right)

You can just get the engine mounted up and then sort out the gearbox later from underneath. bit harder than just wacking the whole thing in there at once though. cant you just keep the hoist hired for another couple of days?
