oh, and about the car, i did ask what's wrong. His car got broken into and they jack'd up the steering column/ignition key and ripped out the alarm. Also he just put the b16a in and only got to drive it around once in the neighborhood. The exhaust still has the gap to the header...
Why did I still buy it?
$3900 for a 93 civic with a b16a installed. lots of other stuff too like shaved doors (handles) with poppers, pretty new paint, blah blah blah, bunch of upgrades.... not to mention he gave me a bunch of **** I can just sell and not put on the car (such as HID lights) and lower the car to like $3500 or maybe lower... I'd say that was a good deal. I just have to put a little work into it.
Car isn't hot..... Pink slip is under his name and carfax matches up with the city at least. I'm a lil worried about the motor being stolen since it's off a 96 del sol. He said he works in an insurance company and they get a lot of totalled cars. So he bought a 96 del sol and took the motor, the seats and the whole front suspension. Sold everything else. Seems like a cool guy. His parents were there when I bought it. Also he got the broken/missing parts (like the steering column and broken ignition) for me. I just need to get it to run now.....
Anyway, I'm gonna pull the b16a and put a b20/vtec in soon.
Back to the help...... someone help me out.....
