Extremely rare unassigned GNX turbo. There is no looseness in the turbine. The cleanliness of the unit suggests it was not on any vehicle very long.

I have been asked by a wealth friend to sell this item. He has told me he bought this unit from McClaren/ASC back in the 1980 and it has been sitting in dry storage ever since. The story I have been told is that it was used at McClaren/ASC inhouse, for testing and that it was a unit that was never assigned to a car. I contacted Doug Nigro at the GNX registry and his email response confirm the history given to me by the owner. Mr. Nigro said:

Thanks for your inquiry.  Yes, it is a GNX turbocharger plate and serial.

Unfortunately, on initial review of records, that number does not seem to correspond with a built GNX - perhaps it was an unused leftover.  I will investigate further.

The owner of this unit owns a large automotive aftermarket glass company and has lots of contacts in the automotive arena, which I am sure is how the acquired this unit.

Several rules apply to this sale:

1)   This item is "Local pickup" only
2)   The unit will not be sold before prospective buyer examines the unit in person or through his agent, because all sales are final
3)   I am not opposed to going with prospective buyer to have the unit tested, if possible.
4)   Only cash or other agreed upon payment modes will be accepted
5)   I will look at all offers (except that I put an "auto-reject" to filter prank offers)
6)   Any "Buy It Now" purchases without prior inspections will be canceled

50,000 copies of the 2012 Honda Civic recalled over driveshaft issue

Tue, 12 Jun 2012

About 50,000 copies of the 2012 Honda Civic are being recalled because of a potential issue with the left driveshaft. The automaker claims that the driveshaft “may not have been properly assembled, potentially allowing it to separate from the outer CV joint while in operation.” While such a separation could result in total loss of power to the wheels and the inability to securely park the vehicle without the use of the parking brake, Honda claims that no incidents related to the issue have been reported. Earlier this year, Honda recalled about 45,800 Honda Odyssey minivans for faulty tailgate struts, 8,700 Honda Pilot and Acura MDX SUVs to fix a problem in the fuel tank, and 1,300 copies of the Honda CR-V to correct a control-arm problem.
