Ventura, California, United States

Here is a rare opportunity for a Honda CRX fanatic! California car from Santa Barbara with ZERO rust. I purchased from a friend who is a cop in 2007, spent 4+ years doing all the work. This CRX has be meticulously and tastefully upgraded, restored and California BAR Smog legalized. 1995 JDM P72 B18C Acura Intergra GSR and S80 LSD transmission from H-motors-Online in Burbank, CA ($3138). Hasport black anodized mounts and Hasport cable to hydraulic transmission conversion. Engine swap and OEM AC system ($4676) done at J&C Imports in N. Hollywood by Paul their certified Honda technician. Integra rear disc brake conversion. All new DX to Si multi-point fuel injection wiring harness ($400) done by Tony at LOKWERKZ in El Monte, CA. Original pure black paint matched and painted by Tom Baca Customs ($3000), this was a full ‘glass out’ and block sanded repaint. Has zero door dings, zero dents and no ripples anywhere.

Has OEM center armrest which was bid up to $370 on eBay but I won and now its in this CRX. Brand new catalytic converter $357 installed. The epic saga to get this CRX smog legal was not easy. Took 3 trips to the California State Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) and many repairs in-between to get the car right. But finally we got it and the CRX is now street and SMOG legal in California. Label is in the engine compartment stating that the CRX is to be smog tested as a 1995 Acura Integra 1.8.

We even have a set of FRONT mud guards which are BRAND NEW, never mounted in the OEM box, SUPER rare. I have spent, not invested… $30,000 on this CRX, it truly one of the cleanest CRX’s in the country. I have a binder that has every receipt, there’s a lot. We have hundreds of photos showing all the work and progress. I am not in a hurry to sell but I am willing to, I want this car to go to someone who will continue to love it as much or more than I have. I am happy to answer any and all questions. Serious parties only. Will help coordinate shipping with you if you desire. |

Petrolicious profiles an 'original fanboy' and his 1987 Honda CRX Si
Tue, 28 Jan 2014Christopher Hoffman is a guy I'd like to meet. He's profiled in the latest installment of Petrolicious, titled Original Fanboy, because of his love and dedication to his 1987 Honda CRX Si. And that's something I can relate to.
My personal car is a black 1988 Honda CRX Si. Road & Track executive editor Sam Smith sold it to me in December 2010 with some 93,000 miles on the odometer (and one bum tire!), and though I don't drive it nearly as much as I should, I'm madly in love with my little Honda. I take immense pride in owning this car, despite my recent neglect. As soon as we're done with this Polar Vortex crap here in the midwestern United States, I'm going to pull the CRX out of its wintertime storage and show it the love it deserves.
Like me, Hoffman fully understands the beauty of the CRX. It's not super powerful, or even quick (when it was new, its 0-60 time was just over 9 seconds), but it's extremely light, and comes from an era when Honda was churning out brilliantly simple cars. The steering is incredibly precise, the transmission perfect, and the chassis superb. Nearly 26 years after its birth, I adore every moment behind the wheel of my CRX. And thanks to this Petrolicious special, I know I'm not alone. Scroll down to watch the full episode.
Honda invests $215M in Ohio Earth Dreams production
Fri, 09 Aug 2013Honda has announced a $215 million investment in a pair of its Ohio operations, taking its total tally for North American operations up to $2.7 billion in three years. The announcement was made at the 2013 Center For Automotive Research Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City.
$180 million of the investment is earmarked for Honda's Anna, OH engine plant. The money will allow the facility to increase its aluminum die casting and increase production of Honda's Earth Dreams Technology engines. Think of Earth Dreams as sort of like Mazda's Skyactiv line, only ED is limited to a new line of engines, rather than a full suite of automotive components. Anna will also be getting a new technical center to train engineers, techs, and line workers on powertrain technology.
The remaining $35 million is slated for Honda's main Ohio operations in Marysville. A 160,000-square-foot facility will be constructed near Honda's current properties, which will house another technical training center to focus on automotive manufacturing. The new building will also house Honda's North American Services group, as well as a new heritage center.
Glickenhaus's SCG 003 to pack twin-turbo Honda V6?
Tue, 26 Aug 2014Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus has made (or commissioned) two vehicles to date - the P4/5 and the P4/5 Competizione - and is now hard at work on its third. The first was based on the Ferrari Enzo and the second on a Ferrari F430, but the third is being developed independently from the ground up. The question, then, is what engine will it use?
Well now we may have our answer as Jalopnik reports that the SCG 003 (as it's known at the moment) will be powered by a 3.5-liter V6 sourced from Honda, fitted with twin turbochargers and producing in excess of 500 horsepower.
Honda's J35Y engine produces 278 horsepower in the Accord, 290 hp in the Acura MDX and 310 hp in the RLX. It also forms the basis for the HR35TT racing engine which Honda Performance Development puts in its Daytona Prototype, so if the rumors turn out to be true, chances are that's probably the engine in question - with the possible addition of a hybrid electric assist - but we'll have to sit tight to find out for sure.
