370Ad Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 After owning this car for a year and loving it, I've got a serious itch for a 350Z or similar. So here goes, in no rush to sell though. 2003 prefacelift Civic Type R in milano red. Taxed til December and MOT'd til December Standard engine on 86k I think it is now after a hassle free trip to the Ring (didn't take it on the track though). No 2nd gear crunch, gearbox is super smooth and had the oils changed when the clutch was done (obvs) 2 genuine Honda keys. All handbooks, etc. FSH. Energy engine mount inserts and Powerflex gearbox insert - tight as a nun's chuff up front now. Clutch recently replaced at Grinspeed and a facelift lighter flywheel was put in. Superpro caster correction kit @ Grinspeed FRSU with Eibach camber bolts and DME camber arms and setup @ Grinspeed Eibach ABP -30mm lowering springs 17" Rota G force matt black alloys with Michelin tyres all round (loads of tread) Sportex 2.5" unsilenced B pipe Goodridge braided brake lines and Brembo pads fitted recently Drilled & grooved front discs Good on petrol for a hot hatch - 1400 miles to the Ring and back and did it on £280!! VTEC works perfectly. Engine doesn't use much oil which shows how well maintained it is. Valve clearances done @ Grinspeed Oil changed regularly BAD POINTS: As with most milanos the paint could do with a correction (most people can't get the red back without a respray, but a guy who works for Bentley who's a mate with Steve @ Grinspeed says he can definitely get the red back without the need for a respray - quoted £200 but I haven't had the time to leave it with him) Small fag burn in the drivers seat (not from me, I don't smoke) Few scuffs on the rear bumper Will get more pics up when I get a chance. £3,850 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

14N Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Some forums are obviously not as friendly and welcoming to non-members/random visitors as other forums/car communities...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danith Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Ouch! CTRO is quite good, mind you I did come from Cliosport.net previously and that place is just pure harsh!! Keyboard warrior heaven, but brilliant for repairs/faults/cheap parts in abundance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massey Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Are you still looking to p/x your civic for a 350z? I've just put mine up for sale on pistonheads and I'd be interested in doing a deal. http://used.ph/15cbDE7 Let me know if you're interested.

Danith Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Was actually looking at keeping the Civic as didn't seem to be getting anywhere with a private sale. But I've PM'd you back. That does look smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massey Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Is it cheap? lol oh I thought I'd priced it quite fairly but maybe I should add another grand to the asking price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danith Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 Still looking ladies. This car is as straight as a die, market's flooded with crap at the moment though so it's not attracting so much attention on PH! I'd prefer a swap + cash deal just so I don't have to bother with the hassle of selling/being without a car temporarily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
