Default 1992 Civic Dx Hatchback GSR Turbo etc Ultimate Sleeper-Massachusetts


PLEASE SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY!

I am listing this for a good friend of mine who was banned because a certain moderator did not like to be corrected on various topics. That is besides the point. This car was built to perform, and does it extremely well while drawing little attention to itself. I have driven it several times in addition to various other turbo b-series cars we built, and it is solid. If it were not for my moving across the country, this car would be in my driveway right now. It could possibly be one of the most comfortable daily driven turbo Honda's I have ever seen. Get in, and drive. That's all. I hope the car finds its way into a new home where it can be appreciated as much as I have; it's not even my car! In what I have seen, I think this car could greatly benefit from an lsd, giving it the ability to break into the 12's.
----

I am testing response for my 1992 hatchback. At this time there is nothing at all wrong, I am just gauging interest. I have no requirement to sell, however I will consider any lucritive offers. I have owned the hatchback since it was stock. I performed all work, along with the help of friends. This car has never been worked on by anyone else.

Chassis: 1992 Dx Hatchback
Color: White
No rust anywhere, including quarterpanels ( I drove to North Carolina and back 26 hours straight to buy this car)
No accidents ever in vehicle history
Only cosmetic flaws are a small crack in rear bumper, which is slightly displaced. Most people don't even notice this, however I do not want to leave out any details
Completely stock exterior with the exception of "Vision" style turn signals

Drivetrain: 1995 Integra GSR
Engine, Transmission, and ECU from a 1995 GSR. The integra belonged to me as well, and was in an accident. I know the complete history of the Integra before I owned it. All maintaince has been done well ahead of time. New water pump and timing belt. Recent valve clearance adjustment to spec.
The mileage on the drivetrain is approximately 110k. This motor runs exactly the same as it did at 60k. A recent compression check showed less than 5psi variance in all cylinders.

Turbo Setup:
Mitsubishi 14b turbo w/ 7cm^2 exhaust housing. This is the exhaust housing from the larger 16G turbos. This turbo is ported, with a larger wastegate flapper.
SS Oil feed/return lines
Custom Self Made Downpipe, exhaust, manifold, and intercooler piping
Precision FMIC (350whp)
RC 550 cc/min saturated injectors
Walbro 190lph fuel pump
Uberdata tuned with LM1 Wideband
DSM 1g BOV
Slimfans
Manual Boost Controller

As of right now, the car is tuned and running well at 10psi. I know some people are afraid of 10psi on a GSR, but that's because they are stupid, and are afraid to actually tune. I would estimate 300bhp, but I have not had the car on a dyno. I was able to run a 13.5@109, only to find all the bolts holding the turbo to the manifold had loosened to the point of being finger loose, and there was a visible gap. This car pulled away hard from a friends WS6 which traps 112. I am confident this is a mid 12 second car on street tires for a good drag driver.

Suspension/Brakes:
Tein SS Coilovers (GSR spring rates)
Full Energy Suspension Polyurethane bushing kit, including all shift-linkage bushings
Full GSR suspension arms
F Upper strut brace, F+R lower braces
Full GSR brake swap
Axxis Metalmaster pads
Motul RBF600 fluid

Stereo:
Alpine Head Unit
Infinity Kappa 6.5" (F) and 6" x 9" (R)
Infinity C.M.M.D. ceramic tweeters with inline passive crossovers
JL Audio 10W3 Subwoofer
Rockford Fosgate 200w Punch Amp (Spec'd at 225w)
Custom install on rear speakers with OEM panels
elemental design audio eDead V2 sound deadening

Wheels/Tires:
(summer) 4x 95 GSR rims with brand new Falken Azenis' 205/50 15
(winter) 4x 5 spoke rims with Nokian Hakkepellitta 2 (studded)

Other:
Ex gauge cluster for tach
Autometer boost gauge, custom sleeper mounting
GSR front seats


I recieved this hatchback in stock form last summer, and all modifications have been done since then. This has been a fun project for a house full of engineering students, and everything has been done meticulouslyThis is not one of those cars people call a sleeper with big rims, stickers, a wing, and a fart can. The precision front mount is sprayed a flat black and there is a protective mesh sprayed flat black in front of it. You cannot see it, even if you stare. The exhaust "tip" is just straight 2.5" piping out of the muffler, it looks just like a stock exhaust. There is a 45" resonator before the muffler, the exhaust flows very well, but is extremely quiet. The ride height is not much lower than stock, thanks to the Teins. This car is incredibly clean, and has suprised many M3's, M5's, LS1 cars, even a few vettes and porsches. This car started for me as an AutoX car, and the suspension is setup extremely well. Due to circumstances, I have actually only AutoX'ed 2 times in this car, as well as drag racing 2 times in the car. "The Egg" has never been on a road course, although I'm sure it would love it. Please email me with any questions.
I am asking $9000 or best offer. This may seem high, however this is the cleanest, simplest and most sleeper GSR turbo hatch I have ever seen, and I have heard the same from many people. I have no obligation to sell the car, I am just gauging interest. Please hold comments and criticisms.
