Could you hang onto the power windows and mirrors, then? If nothing, my brother might want to try those mirrors out... And the $15 for the sunroof switch and the clock? Shipped to 39702?
$15 sounds good for the clock and switch, lemme pack 'em up and see what it'll cost to ship 'em.
I'll see what I can do about holding on to the parts, but part of the reason I'm selling my collection of parts is to fund my engine build. Can you believe almost $600 for new D16A1 pistons alone! Also, between $300-$600 for an LSD! Fortunately the rest of the parts are a little more reasonable.
P.S.
Yes, I know I keep vacillating on this motor, but I think I'd better do it right.

Would $75 be reasonable for the power windows and mirrors? I might be able to come up with it within the month...
lxndr
04-17-2005, 11:36 PM
If I still have them in a month, they're all yours for $100 (shipping not included). I'm hoping to sell them sooner, so I was planning to put everything up on Ebay this weekend (23rd).

I should also add that I'd be willing to trade any of these parts for '88-'89 D16A1 parts. I'm still looking for a distridutor and ECU. The Distributor I found has a bad bearing so the rotor doesnt turn smoothly, and I don't trust my '88 ECU because it is completely covered in rust and has some corrosion inside. I tested the ECU and it seems ok, but I don't want to have any suprises when I try to fire it up for the first time. These were the only parts I could find at the junk yard so I figured I'd better take them.
Also, I'm going to throw my FG 1G CRX front bumper into the mix.
P.S.
I also need an intercooler.

you should be able to get most all parts for it at any parts store in canada. auxiliary fuel filter? you mean the one under the hood? i didn't think the later canadian civics had them, the cvcc ones do because it's also a splitter to feed the two floats on the carbs. i also remember seeing something on rpr.com about how the canadian cars didn't have it. i bought an 82 accord here in canada as a parts car for my civic and it didn't have one, however the 78 wagon i recently picked up does (also a canadian non-cvcc car). it may just be random enough that they can't come up with a part number.

Got hammered.
Sunday:
Recovered from birthday party.
Painted CRX.
Monday:
Made a new friend from RPR.
Got to see Sonny's old CRX in person. http://www.muller.net/sonny/crx/
Traded some parts, got an EDM 1.6L SI badge and some D16A1 ZC cams.
Went to the junkyard (always fun by myself, but even better with someone else who shares a common interest). Picked up a few D16A1 parts.
Recieved D16A1 block guard (to replace the one my friend made for free that didn't work).
All in all, this was a pretty good weekend!

not sure if any of you guys are familiar with eldo at rpr.com but anyhow, he has been tinkering with his crx for quite a while now. first he ran some dual sidedraft carbs, then it was a downdraft 650 Holley, lately it has been a tweaked stock carb (he was the original guy to figure which vacuum lines to rework). all along he has had a nitrous system hooked up (well, after the sidedraft setup) and has run as much as a 100 shot (already blown one motor doing that, the current motor has taken two 100 shots with no effect in comp. and whatnot). why am i saying all this. well he's done hat most said would be impossible, he's running a t25 turbo blowing 13 psi through a stock carb, no box, just through the carb. the vacuum secondaries have been converted to mechanical. he took me out for a run on sunday and let me tell it's a really weird feeling to have the tires smoke when he floored it in 4th (not shifting into 4th, just in gear, running at about 55 mph) the amount of pull is just stupid. we ran it with a G-Tech on slightly wet roads (really bad traction) and ran a 15.32 at 100.5 mph.

Got my first speeding ticket today.
The ticket says 70mph in a 60 zone. I was actually going much faster but I greeted the state trooper in an intelligent, friendly manner and actually ended up joking around with him, so he reduced it to 70mph on the ticket. Towards the end he even complimented me on my paint job and how well maintained the car is. He told me that he doesn't see many of these cars on the road anymore, and when he does they're usually pretty beat up.
To add insult to injury, I wasn't back on the freeway for more than 10 seconds whan a rock hit the windshield causing a big round ding.
Oh well, I still had fun on my mini road trip. Even after the $91 ticket it was still worth the drive to pick up another set of Tokico Illuminas for practically free!

Normally these kits go for about $85+ on Ebay, and my local speed shop wants $110 for the complete kit. It will cost me about $10 for a new set of end links, but since I saved $70+, I can live with that.

So here's my dream from last night:
My wife and I are riding a bus. We're sitting at the back of one of those long articulated busses and we have a ton of boxes. The bus makes our stop and I help my wife stack up an armload of boxes. She pays the driver and gets off the bus while I'm still wrestling with more boxes at the back of the bus, trying to hold them all in my arms. Then the bus starts to drive away and I start yelling "STOP, STOP"! The driver stops in the street and I'm still wresting with the boxes, people are starting to get agrivated, but no one wants to help, then the bus driver decides that he's not waiting anymore and starts driving away.
I pull the "stop" cord then start making my way up to the front of the bus with an armload of boxes (it's difficult enough trying to get to the front of a bus free handed when it's moving, try doing it with an armload of boxes!). I'm dropping boxes everywhere and STILL no one will help. The bus makes the next stop, by this time I'm kicking boxes to the front of the bus and people are starting to yell at me! I start yelling back while unloading my boxes, then someone says something inappropriate and I make him an offer to settle our dispute off the bus.
I finally get all the boxes off the bus and at this point people are screaming profanities at me because I have single handedly made them 1/2 hour late! I turn to pay the driver and all I have are two $50.00 bills! He says "put it in the box"! I then ask him if the box will give me change for a $50 and he says "NO". I tell him that there is NO WAY I'm giving him $50 for the bus ride because if he had waited, and let me off at my original stop, my wife would have been able to give him exact change!
I hear people on the bus yelling and I wake up, swearing that I'll never ride a bus again!
What does this mean?

Ummm.... You and your wife are so completely loaded down, and you are able to help your wife with some of her stress, but in the long run, you can't find anyone to help 'carry your load'... Maybe you should find some good friends that you can 'unload' your stress on?
Oh, and for the car, I don't get much of a chance to check e-bay, so I didn't get to see it. But my brother actually wants to use the corner lights, and his will probably look a little different than that, seeing as he's not quite a professional yet. This is his major practice, mind you. ;)

I found a 1G Civic in the holding area at the junk yard today. It seems to be complete and in good condition except the passenger side door is dented (not badly) and the passenger side window is missing. Do you know anyone who needs some parts? I took some pictures with my camera-phone if you want to see it, and since it is still in the holding area it will be about a week before I can get any parts.

I took some pictures with my camera-phone if you want to see it, and since it is still in the holding area it will be about a week before I can get any parts.
i'm assuming it's just a civic and not a wagon? either way, i have most all the parts i need for under the hood. all the body work i'm doing involves new metal and some not so stock modifications, most of the big stuff is already done. if you can find out what year it is and whether or not it's a CVCC or a 1200 that would be great.
i have not yet taken the time to strip the paint off my hood but i have a suspicion that it was bondo'd at some point so i may be interested in a new one if it's in good condition but it will have to be a 78/79 CVCC civic.
if it's a 77 or earlier i may be interested in the bumpers as they don't have the plastic corners but only if they are in pretty good condition. also the running lights on the front fenders, one of mine has a mismatched lense, if they are in good condition i may be interested.
other things i am looking for are wagon front doors (mine have some dents in them, i can fix them but dent free ones would be ideal) and a chrome wagon roof rack.

It seems to be complete and in good condition except the passenger side door is dented (not badly) and the passenger side window is missing. Do you know anyone who needs some parts? I took some pictures with my camera-phone if you want to see it, and since it is still in the holding area it will be about a week before I can get any parts.
i'm assuming it's just a civic and not a wagon? either way, i have most all the parts i need for under the hood. all the body work i'm doing involves new metal and some not so stock modifications, most of the big stuff is already done. if you can find out what year it is and whether or not it's a CVCC or a 1200 that would be great.
i have not yet taken the time to strip the paint off my hood but i have a suspicion that it was bondo'd at some point so i may be interested in a new one if it's in good condition but it will have to be a 78/79 CVCC civic.
if it's a 77 or earlier i may be interested in the bumpers as they don't have the plastic corners but only if they are in pretty good condition. also the running lights on the front fenders, one of mine has a mismatched lense, if they are in good condition i may be interested.
