ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

      engine life can exceed 300K if properly taken care of... Rust spots are common around the rear wheel wells.

        i already found one that my friends mom is gonna sell me in about a week for $300 with about 176,000 miles and didnt know if it would be worth buying it because of the mileage im relatively new to cb7's and know its a good price regardless of the miles but i wanted to make sure before i went through with it.

                    drop out the motor and swap in a h22 or be like HondaFan81 and rebuild the shit out of it.

                        that would be my ideal goal to put a h22 in it but not till after the motor blows or messes up and would i be able to use the auto f22a tranny with the h22 or would i have to swap that also

                            that would be kinda hard if you maintain it. i bet our accords would hit 500k easy. i know theres on guy on here with over 400k already.
