#291669 Hi Guys.

Ive moved to the darkside and become a Honda owner :p . I needed a new daily after the christmas hail destroyed my daily(s) So i decided on buying a Civic with a B18 conversion. I looked high and low for one until i found Mango's civic forsale. After a quick inspection that same day i decided id have it. 2 days later it was mine.

so. heres what its got.

Honda 1995 Civic EG GLI Special Edition

Engine:
Integra VTIR B18C2 (cam seals, rocker cover seal, larger head gasket, water pump, timing belt, rear main seal,spark plugs, clutch, machined fly, pressure plate changed before drop in)
Exedy OEM Clutch
Apexi Neo SAFC
RMF style 4- 1 headers
High flow cat with flexi pipe
Mugen b pipe
Varex muffler
Engine damper
Short ram with cold air duct
3A pod
Pivot grounding kit

Exterior:
OEM EG6 lip
OEM EG6 visors
Antenna block of plate
Carbon Fiber Spoon Style Duck bill
HID Headlights
Clear corner lamps

Suspensoin:
BC BR coilovers
ITR Brakes
ITR 5 Stud Conversion
ITR Sway Bar
DC2R LCAs
ASR Lower Brace

Interior:
Short Shift with Extended shifter
ITR Shift Knob
Alpine Headunit MP3/Ipod
Fusion Speakers

Plans:
Drive the car as much as possible. The car was bought as my daily but to allow me to drive it everywhere (hills, tracks, street). Interior will be upgraded to better seats (I have a pair of Bride EuroII in my 180sx that i will be moving into this), new wheels will be purchased (currently looking at Enkei RPF01 in 15x7 /+35). Car will be resprayed in the near future also. Plans are to make it as light as possible to squeeze as much power/responce out of it.

Things ive purchased since buying the car:
Camber arms front and rear
Carbon fiber spoon style side mirrors
Strut braces front and rear
Nardi Deep Corn + Boss Kit

Thanks mate.

Yeh B18 was already in the car when i purchased it. I made sure i got a car with heaps of work already done (the most expensive bits) so i can just put my own finishing touches on it.

#295837 Been awhile since i updated this thread.

Car now has the following mods done

- Bonnet spacers
- J's Racing Carbon fiber intake duct (fog light replacment)
- Bride bucket rail
- Bride Zeta
- OEM EG6 Cup holders
- OEM ITR DC2 Gear boot

Cars so much more fun to drive now. Ive also discovered the guy who did the brake upgrade did a half arsed job and didnt upgrade the main things (Brake master and booster + prop valve) So i got myself a 1" Brake master and booster and have an integra 40/40 prop valve coming from the states for this.

Also have a new Distributor coming in the mail as well from the states.
