93 JDM 4g BB4 2.2 VTEC manual + heap of spares

Lightweight BB4 - no ABS, no airbags, no 4WS - imported in 2000, stayed in the south of England till I took her north in 2008. New MoT last week. Owned and looked after by me for 10 years and 140K miles (just turned 200K).

Pulls like an absolute train, VTEC engages properly, and is well capable of being driven enthusiastically enough to embarrass many of those who would scoff at a 25-year old car. ;) Can happily be driven like a granny too. Behaves impeccably.

Newly fitted adjustable rear Megan racing toe arms (imported specially from USA), front balljoint & wheel bearing, and rear brake pads. Freshly undersealed for winter, two rear tyres a month ago. All brakes moving freely. New fuel tank a year ago.

Full stainless exhaust from manifold, new flexi section and cat in last few months. Custom-built rock-solid twin backbox. Poly bushes all round the rear end. JDM wind deflectors, EL dials tinted two shades of blue (more even than the pic below suggests!) with USDM dimmer wheel, black electric folding mirrors, white front fogs (rear fog in converted LH reverse lamp, fog switches to right of steering wheel, front fogs also come on with full beam), lower sidelights wired up so all 4 come on, Momo steering wheel. Grey interior with leather door inserts. Recent thermostat, VTEC pressure switch, some coolant hoses, some PAS pipes. Heavy gauge earth wires in engine bay. Front seats have always had covers on, mats have had carpet tiles on top for protection since I've had it.

Comes with a funny amount of spares, inc 4 Tokico shockers, some standard shocks, a few standard springs, rocker cover, original manifold, original airbox, box full of various switches, door handles, rubbers & relays etc, rear spoiler, red door mirrors, roof trims, alternative rear seat centre storage box (sex-blocker design), stereo surround, some foglights and surrounds, spare front mats, JDM front number plate holder (UK one fitted), rear lights, cloth door inserts, nostrils, brand new OEM crank pulley (underdrive fitted currently), front blueprint pads, new water pump (about due a timing belt change), etc.

Will drop the asking price if you don't want this large amount of spare bits.

V5 present, also all old MoTs, tax discs, manuals, etc. Some import paperwork also present.

A/c compressor clutch engages, but doesn't blow ice cold ... must need gas, I think. Bodywork is generally good, but includes a few small rust patches - I've tried to keep on top of the arches, but all 4 will need surface rust attention soon - no holes as yet. Inside of rears have been regularly sprayed with waxoyl over the years. Still polishes up very nicely in general.

17" Wheels are good, all balanced and 4-wheel laser-aligned last week (see pic). Refinished in white by me about 8 years ago, could do with refreshing, paint-wise, but perfectly acceptable.

No leaks or drips. All the electricals work, including the aerial.

Absolutely solid and reliable car that I've used as a daily driver for 10 years. I just don't have the enthusiasm to give her the ongoing proper attention anymore. Someone will get a great car here ... just don't expect showroom condition. Bits need doing (primarily bodywork) - they always do on a car this age.

Must be picked up from Aberdeenshire. Looking for £995 with the large amount of spares included.

More photos available soon if anyone's interested.

Sorry to see you're selling up Angus. Looks like a great small project for someone to bring back to mint :)

I will do, but I need to tidy all my crap out of it first and give it a quick hoover. :) Hopefully get a chance in the next couple of days.

cheers!

Manual. Sorry - didn't even think to mention that. :)

Clutch has been fine all the time I've had it, and gear selection is smooth and comfortable. I changed the transmission oil about a year ago, too, with proper Honda stuff - the third time I've done that over the years.
