As the title states, I'm in need of a exhaust manifold for a 96 1.6 non-Vtec.I'm sure you guys are aware, the manifold and cat. converter is one piece.The manifold has to be structuallysound with no cracks. Please check the threads where the O2 sensor(s) screw into the manifold. That's where hair line cracks usually starts. Mileage on the manifold is not too important, again it has to be structually sound with no defects. So for all you motor swap guys or for those who have installed headers, here's your oppurtunity to sell aitem you have no need for.The make the EPA happy, I would like to state the exhaust manifold (cat. converter) will be used for it's internal metal content.

Next, I'm also lookingfor a set of coil springs for a mild drop (1.5" or less)Something that will even out the stance. Nothing too radical that will adversely effectcamberor give a harsh ride. The coil brand is not important, inexpensive eBay coils would work for me.

Since I'm a buyer (I have a lot to loose) and you're a seller (you have nothing to loose) here are a few requirements that's needed for a successful transaction.
[ul][*]Pics of the products are a must. No pics, no sale.[*]As the seller you need a minimum of 100 post counts.This will make me rest a little bit easierknowing that you're not a fly-bymember trying toscam someone.[*]If you have less than 100 post, then you need a member with 300 post to verify your status.[*]No post count is need if a moderator will verify your status.[*]What I mean by varify, is that someone has to vouch for you being a stand up guy. That's only if you have less than 100 post.[*]As you can see, this is my first post.I will be sending you the money (PayPal, money order, personal check) Once the money clears, you have nothing to loose and everyhing to gain.[*]I'm in the Charlotte, NC area. If you're in a30 mile radius that's a plus, because I'm hoping we could meet at a local gas station to make the transaction.[/ul]
I'm 37yrs old, married with two kids.I'm not trying to pull a fast one and I hope neither is the seller. I'm a car guy like mostly everyone here and I do all my own work. I have a stock 4-dr 96 Civic that we purchase brand new with 12miles on the odometer. It has been wellmaintained during the past 150,000 miles with absolutely no problems.Besides the usual items that are changed due to maintenance, everythingis original.(eng, trans, radiator, alternator, ps pump, exhaust, rear brake shoes <which are reaching it'slife expantancy>

With the gas pricesthe way they are, we willbe holding onto this Civic for many years to come.It's just time to dress her up again, lower the ride height, get rid of the hubcaps for 15" OEM mag wheels or aftermarket wheels. No 16's or 17's for us.

If you have the items I'lm looking for, reply to this threadso I can see your post count

Thanks
Mike
