Hey guys - I’m going to look over a 99 civic Si tomorrow with a few issues. Price is beyond great but needs some work to restore the car back to its former glory.
Can you guys give me some ideas of important items to look over for this year? I’m a current Honda owner, I’ve owned EG’s in the past and currently own a 2018 Accord 2.0 but I’m out of my zone with this car. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated so I can compile a list while I’m walking around the car.
Currently the car runs but has a slight grind going into 5th. He replaced a CV axle and the unit fell out while driving for some time. He’s got no time and I’m sure funds to complete repairs so his loss is my gain.
I’ll check for originality of engine and transmission, tranny fluid loss, any oil leaks on the engine, ticking valve train, smoking exhaust, any electrical issues, etc. I’m sure I’m forgetting something but hoping the community can help out. I appreciate your response in advance.
