• The vehicle is always hand washed!

How much am I selling it for?

I have gone through and listed all the items that are on the vehicle. All the items you see here will be included at the time of sale. As you know ebay.com is a great place to sell and buy used auto parts. As such I have done the research of what each of the items on the car can easily be sold for on e-bay. After compiling the list I devised a fair method of 10% discount to estimate the price. Keep in mind that not only does this vehicle have professionally installed equipment, but it also has a factory warranty on all factory parts. Add to this the historical value of the car and the price becomes a true value!

Additional Information:

I purchased the vehicle brand new from Gettel Acura in Sarasota, FL. I pre-ordered the vehicle three months in advance. Upon arriving at the dealer, it came directly off the truck into the showroom. It sat on the showroom floor while I was away on business. When I took delivery of the vehicle it went directly to my garage. Originally I had no intentions of modifying the Type R. As many of you know it is more than capable in stock form. I wanted to keep it forever.

My situation changed, and so did the Type R. In 1999, my Pikes Peak race car, a Honda Civic was totaled in a non-racing transport accident. This caused me to rethink the future of the Type R. After reviewing the rules for the Pikes Peak Hill Climb, we decided only one vehicle was capable of winning the 2wd class. That vehicle was the Type R, and it was in my garage! Not wanting to harm my Type R in any way, we painstakingly prepared it so that it not only could compete at Pikes Peak, but also win. All-the-while we made sure that the vehicle could easily be used on the street and be kept in perfect condition. Hence, this vehicle despite its use on Pikes Peak is in much better shape than the majority of similarly aged vehicles. It is constantly kept in the garage!

I invite any who are genuinely interested in the vehicle to come and view the shape that it is in. Many who have seen it are always amazed that this exact vehicle raced Pikes Peak – and is this clean!

Only one year ago, I purchased from Honda of North America many new items! Why? I was building my Honda Civic that won Pikes Peak in 2002. We had stripped the Type R to build the Civic race car. So when the new parts arrived the Type R benefited.
Which items where these?

 New ITR Head
 New ITR Front and Rear Brakes
 New ITR Front and Rear Suspension – all points
 New ITR Front and Rear Sway bars – and bushings
 New ITR Muffler
 New ITR Power Steering
 New ITR Engine Mounts
 New ITR Shift Linkage
 New ITR Engine Wiring Harness
 New ITR Distributor
 New ITR Starter
 New ITR Throttle body
 New ITR oversized pistons – stock vin number block
 New ITR head gasket and gasket kit
 New Header
 New Exhaust


To sum it up, you are purchasing: A piece of Honda’s history that also happens to be one of the finest Type R’s in the country, if not the world. It is world-famous, appearing in countless magazines and calendars. It has performance that exceeds that of the stock Type R, while retaining the security of factory reliability. But you knew all that. So why not just own it and get to driving!

Why is it that the front bumper paint doesn't match the rest of the car??? Side skirts don't match either.

civicracer901

I give you a A- for the amount of information you have provided. You must really want to sell this car.

StreetDriven

nice car but .......................30k

Y2JAY

where is the jackson SC

ppihctyper

The paint doesn't quite match due to the difference in base materials. Simply, plastic and metal. The physical properties of these materials change the reflection and color depth of the paint.

In other news: the Jackson Supercharger is no longer installed. The engine has been changed to reflect an "everyday" car. Hence we put oversized stock pistons, skunk2 stage 1 cams and a new Type R head.

About the price: you said 30k??? Well, the asking price is actually 27k, 3,000 dollar difference. I broke down the reason for the asking price. But even though I put the reason, it may not be "reason"able for all persons. But then again, this is a special car. I am sure the buyer of the vehicle will agree.
- thanks for the interest all- Blake

your a frickin wack-o. just keep the car and call it a day.

chet

i've seen this car and its in great shape

ppihctyper

Many of you have sent me emails and personal messages inquiring the amount that the reserve is for my ebay auction. As you know this amount is the reality of the lowest amount of money I am willing to accept for my vehicle.
As such the reserve is set at $23,750!!!! Yes, the ebay.com buy now is still $27,174.60. But I felt a low reserve would allow the opportunity for the vehicle to be sold in a shorter period of time.

Here is the ebay auction link:
