Championship White Facelift EK9 Civic Type R
Late 1998
Price: SOLD
Mileage: 125,000
Location: Berkshire
MOT: Valid until 30/04/14
Tax: Valid until 31/10/13
Can hardly believe Iâm doing this myself but here we go. Unfortunately the time has come far too soon to sell my EK9, simply because I need the money and I worry about it constantly and need to be worrying about other things. I am selling up with everything so my life will be plain and boring so I can focus elsewhere.
Car is priced far too cheap in my eyes but I understand it has the rust ect so Iâm biting the bullet and letting go for what I think is reasonable.
Model comes with driver/passenger airbags, ABS, electric windows and PAS. It also came with all RX model options - folding mirrors, door tweeters, keyless entry.
Car was imported by Tegiwa in 2006 and has had 2 owners in the UK since including me.
Have as many recipes as I can have. Also from previous owner so the whole time it has been in the UK.
I gave the car a service about 2 months ago fresh oil, sparkplugs, oil filter ect and have always frequently changed gearbox oil and engine oil.
Modifications:
Toad Ai606 Cat 1 Alarm/Imobiliser - I have the certificate to prove
Hi-flow cat Spoon N1 (with silencer if wanted)
Mugen Pedals
Front 3 Point strut brace sprayed rocker cover red
Rear upper strut brace sprayed rocker cover red
Fully re-bushed using Hardrace bushes (fitted by Endless Horizon)
Spoon fixed springs and dampers
Car was undersealed under a year ago and still looks like new under there. It had been previously undersealed which still looked great.
Also has had all OEM disks+pads under 1 year ago and new radiator.
Has all been converted to MPH when imported.
Goes without saying the car is always allowed to warm up before driving and never has gone over 4000RPM before engine has been warm for some time.
No smoke on VTEC and pulls great as you will see. No crunches through any gears and all feel very tight.
Bad points:
Has rust on one arch (still solid but needs treating)
Rust appearing on other arch but just needs clearing up before it gets established.
Front bumper has scrapes from previous owner.
Usual stone chips.
Driverâs Seat is getting warn.
Millage on the car shows 160.000 miles this is because the previous owner had a B18 in there fitted by endless horizon got everything to prove this and all build threads ect from previous owner but B16B has covered the listed millage. Can prove all this build thread is on here.
Reverse gear makes a whining noise more than usual (selects fine and works fine just the noise)
Inside pictures to follow and engine bay
Number 07884437216 difficult to answer my phone at work so please leave a message or text whatever is better and I will get back to you asap
