Nice, I'm quite interested to see what these are like as I think they look cool plus Honda say they are a sports hybrid and built for handling


I read, maybe on Top Gear's site, that they don't handle as well, or go as fast, as the new GTIs. I guess they attempt to please too many different people at once. But, believe me, I wish they were superior. I like the look.


He handling is good, no probs with it. the engine is to lame a bit more horsepower wouldt be nice. I'm overthinking of swapping it to a K20 maybe next year.

#358060 I don't know if i have air enough to blast the dust off of my topic.
In the last time there has some changes on my civic.
It went wider at the front and the rear, had a new paintjob a wile back, and at he moment i have to renew my engine. There is a little crack in the top of a piston where trough it causes high pressure inside the engine and i had a few oil leaks.
Now the engine is out i also tought, why not repaint the enginebay. So i did and going trough the cleanup i decided to replace some wires under the fenders.
But pics say more..

The frontfender went about 1 inch wider
Image

The rear went about 1,5 inch wider, also the rear is a littlebit modified to fit with the rest.
Image

Oh yeah, i painted my rims red :twisted: and changed the frontwheels to the same size as the rear wheels 16-et15-j9

Now the most recent work on the civic
Image
Image
Image

Now the cables are out of sight
Image

And the sanding has begon :)
Image

The hands of my son are smaller than mine so he had to do the shittyplaces :)

Ready voor paint.

I made the choice to match it with my rims.

Now i'm just thinking of painting the new engine in gray, butt i still have some time left. the new engine has to be cleaned. than i always can decide what to do.

#358078 I kind of like the color but the body kit and the tail lights have to go. Good job on the engine bay, the green and red reminds me of a watermelon.

#358082 I think you are te funniest at home. It is unpossible to remove the bodykit. It is te essention of the car, why drive a car that looks the same as otherones. And a watermelon... i tather think like a john deere tracktor. :)

I think it'll be hard to look like your car considering it's a different green from most green Honda's. I think you took my comment to heart, I was in no way insulting your ride.

#6909135 I love it! This reminds me of how cars were done in the late 90's before EVERYBODY jumped on the JDM bandwagon.
Your body work looks top notch :thumb:
