Default 92 CX Civic Hatch LS Swap

Well it is time for me to move on to something a little bigger so I have to unload this fun little car. One of the first things that drew me to the car was the black interior (most cx's i saw were blue.) That fact along with it had working AC (And still does with the swap.)

Make: Honda
Model: Civic CX
Year: 1992
Mileage: 213xxx

Engine:b18b1
VIN#: upon request
contact: pm here or legendarydetailing@gmail.com
PRICE: $3950 obo

Included:
15" Rota Slips with Kumho Ecsta Tires (original 13" wheels and tires included as well.)
Skunk 2 Sport shocks and lowering springs
HID 6000k Bulbs (shielded for high and low beams)
Blackworks front Camber Kit
Blox Rear Camber Kit
ES Tuning Muffler
Custom 2.5" Exhaust Pipe
DC Sport Header
Short Ram intake
Blackworks Weighted Knob and Short Shifter
Integra Black Cloth Seats (original black vinyl also included)
35% Tint
2 way pager alarm with electric locks
Polk door Speakers
Passenger Side Mirror!
Tachometer Cluster

The kenwood headunit in it now is not included, but a headunit will be installed before the car is sold.

The swap was done on May 21,2011 and since then have only put less than 15k on the car.
When the engine was swapped I put in a Lightweight Fidanza Flywheel with a Exedy OE replacement clutch. Water pump, timing belt, and thermostat were replaced prior to installation with Gates products and the valve cover along with oil pan gasket were replaced as well. Brand new Denso o2 sensor installed as well during swap.

The Bad:
Needs some body work (paint is dead and has dings expected to be found on a 20 year old car.)
Interior door locks need to be replaced (broke during the few cold days we had here in GA.)
Leaks a little oil from around the oil pan gasket (never could get that seated right it seems.)
Possibly needs a new catalytic converter.

nice lil hatch man! a lil paint and that thing would look fly. I just got rid of my hatch as well, a 95 cx with built all motor ls swap, gsr trans, with lsd, bunch of other mods. it was my baby from 18 til recently.

edit. yeah you get bomb gas milage with a nice powerplant in those year hatches, mine stripped out weighed in under 1900, with the setup I had I was running about 34 in the city and mid 40s highway.

Damn Joey, GLWS, Ive always liked the EH/EG hatch even though Im a little partial to the EK. If I didnt already have a stable full of cars, id consider this for a DD. someone should scoop this up relatively quick, these are cheap to maintain and great DD's.

Even on the heavier side, it's pretty comfy. If you are taller, like 6 ft your knees may hit the dash but I'm only 5'4" and I fit nicely. Integra seats are much more comfy then the civic seats and for the longest time I had nothing in the back so it was roomy. Great car, but for me I need something more modern. Still for sale btw!
