  • Festiva number 7

    Well I got out of the tiva game about a year ago and keep telling myself I wouldn't buy another one. Well I made it almost a year and pick this one up for 400 bucks. It has an the aspire swap, very very stiff suspension, seats out of I dont know and a 1.6 16 valve swap but it does have a blown headgasket. Plans include swaping in a 1.6 8 vavle and new wheels ( 16 on the front and 17 on the back) cause there way to big going to drop to 13's maybe 14's no clue yet. I know somebody will ask the spoiler is off a civic dont have any idea of what year or anything so please dont bug me about it cause I dont know. Pics at the link below some parts will be for sale soon wheels for sure roof rack and maybe some other odd's and ends haven't got to tear into the car yet.

      LX rear seats, Civic hatch spoiler.

      i'd go with 15" wheels, and keep the 16v head (more power, same economy).
      Trees aren't kind to me...

      currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
      94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

              Glad to see that someone here got that car. $400 is a good price considering that he started at over $1,000. I would definitely change those wheels.

                FYI the roof rack is spoken for!!! You guys might remember the car. It was on craigslist in Vancouver WA for a wile and I believe someone shared the ad here at one point. It had a 121 grill and lights but the guy must have switched them. It was also carbed at the time! I spoke to the guy that tb8983 bought it from and he said he bought it for $900 off craigslist and it blew the head gasket on the way home. It probably has the wrong head on it.
                Anyway great score!!

                  Nice car! Would love a set of those wheels in 15 inch size.
                  Still think they look good. How bad do they hit the fenders?

                    Good to finally see some more pics of this. I had inquired about the car to the seller on craigslist, but ended up not going for it.

                    Looks like a great project!
