what is it worth?
 
ok, i will list everything i have for it, and i just need an idea of what everything together is worth because i am strongly thinking of selling it, because i am too noobie to do the swap myself and i am sick of waiting around for people:

-92 civic hatch CX, completely stripped inside ( bare metal with dash)
-from the doors back, its white and clean ( no dents, paint blemish ect.)
-fenders, hood are ----, and there is no front bumper.. brand new windsheild and jdm spoon side mirrors
-suspenion is CTR shocks and struts, with lowering srpings ( not ebay, but not sure wat they are)

ok, now i have everything for it,only thing is missing is an obd-1 dizzy and plug wires:

-brand new oem hood, fenders, front bumper, headlights and amber corner lights with silver star bulbs
-2 brand new jdm style racing seats, black with red stitching, complete with rails and bolts
-stock intgera mounts, with all brand new motor mount bolts from honda
-93 ls integra motor with around 88,xxx miles with brand new timing belt and water pump
-95 ls hydro tranny, no grinds
-brand new F1 stage 3 clutch kit with stock ls flywheel
-short shifter, with linkage
-b series axles, with half shaft
-OBD-1 wiring harness and ECU
-brand new half core radiator 2" thick with cap and brand new hoses
-15" bronze rota c-8's, one has decent curbage but other 3 like new on yokohama avid v4 front tread 40%, rear tread bout 90%
-stock exhaust still on up until downpipe

think i have everything.. so what do you guys think it is worth given that everything is out of the car and body parts are still off the car

a shell isn't worth much.
a non-running car with those parts 1/2 of the cost.
you would make so much more by selling the parts on ebay.
but...
this is hmt, we can help.
looks like you got all the parts. you just need to get wrenching. post when you get hung up on something.
have a hmt meet and you'll have a running car in a day. just gotta have food and beer.

Re: what is it worth?
 
yeah,well thanks, maybe a meet but a few locals around here i know that r heavy into hondas like hotrex and other people knows just make fun of me and seem to refuse to help, not too mention i cant count on them for anything so i was hoping to just sell everything.. agravation has grown to an unbeliveable level lately, but i will have to see what other people think i guess.

Re: what is it worth?
 
honestly, you should be able to put it together. Just read, go outside and mess with it, and if you come into any legit problem I, or I'm sure someone else on this forum will help you through it.

Re: what is it worth?
 
yes,i have definitly been considering just doing it myself, but am afraid i will get too far and have forgotten about something along the way and i will have to undo everything..idk maybe ill give it a whirl. Do not have an engine lift, so may have an issue actually getting it into the car

Re: what is it worth?
 
If you have a jack you can do it from the bottom.
Make sure you download the service manual and you will be straight on everything else:

Even if you have to redo steps, who cares? That means you'll know how to do it the second time around.

you can rent one from autozonr for free. just pay the deposit and when you are done they refund it.

you will learn a ---- ton if you do it yourself. ods are quite a fwe parts will go on and come off a few times. thats what custom ---- is all about. my turbo and manifold have ben on and off of an engine in the car and one on a stand more times than i can remember. its fun. get a radio, some tools, and have fun with it. if you have a digital camera you can take pics of the troubles you are having and we can all get you through it

If the motor is already together it's cake.

SlowCivicHB 07-11-2007 12:35 PM

Re: what is it worth?
 
i alredy bolted the clutch together and the tranny to the motor.. so i guess all i have to do is bolt it to the mounts and strat plugging away on hoses and wires... but that is where i will struggle is knowing where the sensors and such go

BigD 07-11-2007 12:39 PM

Re: what is it worth?
 
Don't get overwelmed. The first swap I was doing I quit because I thought I would never get all the plugs/sensors/misc crap done. So I just let a friend finish for $200. Turns out I was only a few plugs away from pulling it out :1 Anyways, just get a service manual (I think someone already posted it) and go to town.

Scott-EP 07-11-2007 12:39 PM

Re: what is it worth?
 
the wires will go where they want to. just see how they fall and plug into where it fits. as far as i know if its wrong the plug wont fit so it should be pretty much fool proof

SlowCivicHB 07-11-2007 12:47 PM

Re: what is it worth?
 
well me and my buddy did my first swap last fall... the same motor, cable tranny into my black EF i have,which is now a shell as well, but we got it running and was not to bad, but i know i have the basic idea of doing it.. i have just reconsidered follwoing thru and seling everything.. ill figure something out, thx for the help so far tho

Well if you already did one your just being lazy

whiterice 07-11-2007 12:57 PM

Re: what is it worth?
 
eg/dc mix is the easiest. Everything is bolt on and plug in.

LOL HE asked a legitimate question in the correct way.

When i did my first swap i labeled all the sensor plugs with masking tape.
My second was a half way project that i finished for my friend and of course he didn't label anything.(pain in ass)
Im about to do a obd0 to obd1 conversion and put my built motor in.

You get the hang of it just read up.

Re: what is it worth?
 
if you have probs with wiring post up the colorcodes on the wires and i can tell you where they go, as can many other people. it also helps alot if there is another civic you can look at in person for troubleshooting issues.
