Boosted fully built D17 engine
Well I have been trying to sale the car on here for some time now and not getting but a few hits. If I were a little more motivated I would post it on Ebay, autotrader and other sites but its not that important that I sale it. It runs great, looks new and drives like a car half its age. I would however like to start on a new car sometime in the next year so I will be either selling it as a whole, selling the engine and replacing it with a stock OEM D17a2, or swapping a K series in just to change it up a bit. I would rather just get rid of it but the K swap is an option just so I can make it a clean DD and hopefully ( I doubt it) not mod it. The engine has a ridicules amount of money put it it and is capable of 300+hp but I have it detuned to about 180 b/c I drive it every day and do not have a stand alone to make that much power and feel safe about it. If anyone would like to come by and see the car or hear it run I can arrange that. I will not be pulling the engine until it is sold just so I can prove that the engine runs like I claim it does. I can remove it myself but I will be paying a shop to do it and the new owner will get a receipt. I can include the tranny and the clutch too for a additional fee.
I would like to get $5K for it all BUT if you have something I want to trade for you will of course get a discount. the car itself can be had for $8K (minus the NX kit and with the OEM hood which I will have painted for you). If you want to swap engines (OEM, or close to, D17A2) you will get a MASSIVE discount. I will give you everything for half off.
This is not a part out thread.
The engine has the following mods:
AEM cam gear
Crower stage two boost cam
TSI Turbo Kit (T25 Turbo)
Snow performance methanol injection
Springs
Retainers
Rods
Pistons
SRT4 Injectors
GReddy Emanage Ultimate
Nippon wiring harness
HKS SQV BOV
Block Guard
ARP Head Studs
Boost Gauge
Oil Pressure Gauge
Turbo XS Boost Controller
Thermal R&D exhaust
Walbro Fuel pump
Brand new timing belt and tensioner
I also have a few extra parts:
Generic BOV (see my other thread)
RSX injectors
Extra Valve cover
Parts willing to trade for:
K series engine (K20A, K24, K20A2, K20a3, K20Z, etc..)- Doesn’t matter which one but I prefer K20A
RSX sub frame
Cusco Harness bar
K20 ECU
02-04 Civic SI rear brakes with e-brake cable
Hasport engine mounts
OEM D17A2 W/stock air box and full exhaust
The Car:

Paint is flawless, I dare you to find a cleaner 02 civic.
The engine as it sits now, non show condition and in the process of rewireing NX (which has not been used in YEARS):

Re: Boosted fully built D17 engine
to be honest... your going to have to part out.. not trying to sound like a dick but for 5k someone would probably rather opt for a kswap... if you do however decide to part out... everyone will buy your stuff

Re: Boosted fully built D17 engine
If I do, I will sale this
I agree and this is only a asking price. A engine swap with someone will greatly reduce this price. I can even arrange for this engine to be installed for cheap into someones car if needed.

Re: Boosted fully built D17 engine
Also ,the reason this is not a part out is because this is my only car. I had another one but sold it a few months ago. It might become a part out by summers end if the engine doesn't sale as a whole. This is still cheaper than a Kswap because eveything is a direct bolt in, no modifications needed except to make the IC fit behind the bumper and even that is minor.
