Alright, I'm looking for an SE-R again. I'm wanting to find a nice, clean, relatively stock, reliable b13 SE-R. It's not much to ask, as my civic is relatively stock, reliable, but not so much on the clean side.
Car has:
103,xxx miles
2000 Mile old Falken Ziex 512 tires, 195/60/14
Option Racing CAI
Option Racing Header
Option Racing High flow cat
Si Cluster, and most of the interior. (Si interior is black and grey, instead of blue)
New Brakes all the way around, including wheel cylinders.
New brake master cylinder
new dual core radiator (keeps the car at cold while driving, perfect for florida's heat)
I'll add more as i remember it.
the car needs: (as of right now)
the A/C parts re-installed to make it work
HVAC controls, i stripped the plastic gears because they stuck, and i'm a large man..
tie rods (still decent, but more play than i'd like)
a clutch (if you plan on racing it, otherwise it's perfect)
a paint job (i rattle canned it flat black in a drunken moment)
(the longer i keep the car, the more this list goes down, and the price goes up accordingly)
Things that don't work, have issues, annoy me, etc..
The rear wiper doesn't work. I don't know why, it just wiggles in place.
The windshield squirters are missing. they were missing when i got the car, i don't care about them.
the windshield has a lot of scratches in it, i'm going to try and polish them out, but it might need to be replaced. It's only bad when you're driving into the sun, otherwise i don't notice them.
The hatch struts work sometimes.. trust me, use vicegrips to hold it up if you need it to stay up on it's own. i've been knocked down from it before.
All in all, the car is reliable, but not without it's quirks. The car runs strong, and has been known to scare away muscle cars.. (i blame flat black, and a small exhaust leak, but it's still fun :rofl: ) The car will definately make a road trip just about anywhere, and i've gotten 25-32mpg in the city. The car is slow, ugly, and a little loud, but it's an amazing commuter, and would make an insane project car if you wanted a 13 second all motor car for 1,000 dollars..
What i'm looking for :
A decent b13 se-r, i'm not too picky, but i don't want rust, or one that's not going to handle road trips. My car doesn't give me problems, I wouldn't want a downgrade to one that does. Trust me, i'm smarter than you think. I don't care about color too much, as long as it's got decent paint, and by decent, anything that's the same color, and not chipped off in large areas. Also, any power options are a plus. I will be offering up cash with my car, as it's only worth 1200 blue book, but maybe 1k street value. Also, anything local, or nearby is preferred.
I will post pictures of the car tonight, when i'm not at work.
