1989 Honda Crx Si Coupe 2-door 1.6l on 2040-cars

Year:1989 Mileage:330150
Location:

Akron, Ohio, United States

Akron, Ohio, United States

 Offered for sale is a 1989 Honda CRX Si.  The car has largely remained unmodified.   We bought the car out of Colorado to try to find a slightly cleaner chassis then what is typically found in Ohio.    The plan was to have a great runner to run to and from auctions with that would be a lot of fun.   After the winter we've had, we have gone a different direction.  

Looking at the pictures you can see, the car looks like its never been in an accident.   The front sheet metal is all original and corrosion free.   The only corrosion on the car is the typical rear quarter panels and the drivers door check mount has rusted.   

The engine has been replaced at some point with a SOHC ZC engine.    The car does run great, clutch feels good, gets 45 mpg.    All in all, it is a solid car.  Great driver or project car. 

The driver seat bolster is worn and the climate controls are cracked like most CRXs of this vintage.   The seat adjuster has a couple of teeth missing, and so some drivers might find the position uncomfortable.    The car does need to be repainted.  The previous owners did some less than desirable body & paint work.    The A/C belt is off.  The A/C Compressor does turn but the idler pulley is seized up. 

Car is SOLD AS-IS NO WARRANTY

Honda reveals three new turbo VTEC engines, including Civic Type R 2.0L

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

It's fair to say that in recent years, Honda has been viewed as a laggard when it comes to engine and gearbox development, seemingly missing the boat on direct-injection, forced-induction and high gear-count transmissions, among other things. But under its Earth Dreams banner, the Japanese automaker is showing new vigor, with the latest proof being this trio of just-announced powerplants.
Measuring 1.0-liters, 1.5-liters and 2.0-liters in displacement, this array of three- and four-cylinder engines boasts turbocharging and direct-injection along with the latest iteration of Honda's famed VTEC variable valve timing hardware. "Most suitable for small-to-medium-sized vehicles," the largest engine is said to be good for more than 276 horsepower and will slot into the eagerly awaited Civic Type R, iconic red valve cover and all.
Unfortunately, few other details about the hot Civic's engine or any of the others are being made public at this time, and there's no official word about the engines coming to North American in the Type R or any other model. Given that all the engines are complaint with stringent Euro 6 emissions standards, they figure to be clean enough, and Honda says that these have been developed as global powerplants, so we'd be shocked if they didn't come ashore in new or updated products over the next few years... even if they leave the CTR on the boat.

Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.

Honda S2000, Acura RSX recalled over brake boosters

Fri, 14 Jun 2013

Honda has announced a recall that affects two of our favorite, dearly departed cars from the brand's portfolio: the S2000 roadster and Acura RSX coupe. A total of 5,239 S2000 models from the 2006 and 2007 model years are affected by this problem, as are 13,113 2006 Acura RSX models.
"A production error may have allowed brake booster components to be produced outside of the original specifications, potentially causing decreased brake assistance over time, which could increase the risk of a crash," American Honda said in a press release. Thus, dealerships will inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake booster setups in these vehicles, free of charge.
No crashes or injuries have been reported in relation to this brake problem. Honda says the problem was discovered during warranty claim analysis.
