Never buy before the initial depreciation has leveled out.

Wiseco 10.5:1 .020” overbore, eagle rods, & ACL rod bearings. $265 OBO.

Could be a steal for someone putting together a corn build.
Couldn't scrape pics from FB with my phone. Don't hate.

Are those maybe the FM Wisecos? I feel like FM had custom ones made at one point that looked a little funny.

I'm almost certain that's what my 10.5:1 Wisecos looked like. Looks like they use a different forging design between the high and low comp designs.

Edit. Found a pic of my 10.5:1 pistons that I bought from Fab9.

2001 AWD 5Spd Turbo CRV



If you're looking to stand out this CRV is for you. It has been owned by a few friends in the past, but I gave it a completely new look. I have before pictures if anyone wants to see them.
It now has a paint matched JDM front bumper w/ fog lights, JDM headlights that were slightly smoked, tail lights that were smoked, tinted windows, and several other body parts were paint matched to look like the CRVs sold overseas. I don't know of any other local ones that are similar.

The shell has 188k miles, and the B18B1 has 135k miles with the head gasket & timing belt replaced less than 5k miles ago by a previous owner. It's a Garrett 60-1 turbo last tuned on 12lbs by Denis Howell of PRL Motorsports while owned by the last owner. It's converted to a OBD1 ECU & tuned on Crome. I have it on 10lbs currently, and the ACT clutch holds the power without issue. It should dyno 260-280whp if the driveshaft is removed.
It has RSX wheels, coilovers, offset adjustable front upper balljoints, adjustable rear toe links, solid motor mounts, lowered driver seat using civic seat rails, half rad, upgraded injectors, Walbro 255 fuel pump, aftermarket head unit, and a pillar pod with a wideband & boost gauge.

I just replaced the front rotors, front pads, front swaybar end links, all 4 tires which are 225/50/16s with 80-90% tread, intake manifold gasket while having the intake off for paint, alternator belt, wiper blades, and the oil was just changed yesterday using Brad Penn 10w40 oil.
The transmission shifts smoothly, the body has no rust, and the check engine light is NOT on. It doesn't burn any oil, compression tests good across all cylinders, and it doesn't have any fluid leaks. I have the clean title in hand.
The only "cons" are the driver window regulator needs replaced, it's open downpipe, and it needs inspected. All of which I plan to do then up the price if it doesn't sell within a few weeks.
$5500

It is a small world. Denis, the guy who apparently did the tuning and such is the machinist who makes all my flanges.

That's pretty cool actually. I would totally use that as a DD/grocery getter/errand runner.

These are beautiful Victoria's Secret mannequins dressed as soda shop waitresses. The two big busted are new victoria's secret and they sell for $300 each. The two smaller busted mannequins are used, and they sell for $200 each, all mannequins come with the a wig and the outfit. These would be perfect for the man who has everything and would look good in his man cave, or show area, these can typically be used in a mock restaurant area or used next to a classic car, with a window tray, as a car hop. This would make a wonderful gift for the hard to buy for man......PRICE IS FIRM! NO TRADES! NO SHIPPING, CASH ONLY!

For sale: One Lotus Elise seat. It has been in my 1994 Miata. Sale includes brackets for install on the Miata floor pan. As low as you can go in a Miata. This will get you the maximum headroom available under a roll bar, hard top, or a soft top. I am 6 ft 2 inches, see picture. Will demonstrate installation and you get all hardware to install in your Miata. I did not use sliders, you could adapt to stock sliders. Lowest install requires removal of stock seat rear attachment points, drilling floor pan, and your installed roll bar to support the seat back. Will work with stock seat belts or 4- or 5-point harness. Seat is black and has some wear marks but no rips or holes. Stock lumbar bladder has a leak and no inflating bulb included. Install approved by The Stig. ;-)
