Hi just recently bought a city pro t it's in good condition, but I'm looking at where to get some parts and seem to have some trouble I'm in Sydney can anyone help

I'm looking for LEFT hand side front indicator/park light lense. Also I'm guessing the turbo II engines are extremely hard to find right?? Any other engine conversions done before?

Thanks for any help

For the indicator lens id just go to a local wreckers and hope theres a city there. Usually works over here in NZ but not sure how many are over there. Turbo engines come up every now and again but again not sure if it is the same over there. KingCity swapped a turbo motor into a N/A city so he'd have some advice on that I'd imagine

Thanks bitterberry I have tried 1 or 2 wreckers but they pretty much laughed and said good luck can't find much on ebay either so I think I have to try interstate or overseas honda city's are pretty rare I think on the eastern side of Australia and in the whole of Australia in general.. or buying a whole city and stripping it but I don't have the room for that

Whats the parts situation for city's over there in NZ??

Depends what you're looking for. I've got aftermarket stuff (clutch kit, water pump, etc just random things) locally from Appco, a parts company here. Stuff on the body isn't that hard to find on trademe/wreckers but a lot of the turbo stuff is pretty sparce

Just want to fix the busted lense on the front really and maybe in the future put some 13 inch civic steel rims want to keep the stock look but have abit of power under the hood

nice car mate.

old, white jap cars make me cringe. i automatically assume there is rust.

yours looks very clean though.

Lol yeah I'm about 99% sure it's rust free, bought it off an 80 year old man who had it stored for about 15 years picked it up for $1000 with rego and odometer reads 48,000km so I'm pretty sure that's original kms because it's pretty much immaculate
