so the eg8 is not doing so well motor is junk and the body started to rust already
so iv been on the look out for a eg8 and i stumbled apon a eh9 on cl
the guy wanted 575 for it i bought it for 550 and drove in an hour home with no problems
will post pics tomorrow here are the specs
Specs:
1992 civic ex 4door
1.6 vtec d16z6 with 305K and climbing runs mint pulls hard vtec kicks good
5spd with good clutch no grinds so far
i am the third owner has clean title no accidents or anything like that
no ac or radio
sunroof that works and doesnt leaks
4 wheel disc brakes (with removed abs) with new rotors and calipers and pads in the rear
typical rust not bad tho only the size of a quarter or so
hood is pretty beat up clear coat is almost completly gone and is rusting pretty bad
power windows and locks but neither work
the power windows work but keep popping fuses everytime i use it
Plans:
-get the rust fixed and paint it white will probablly get a local shop to do it for me since i have very minimal time to do it myself
-swap doors and hood from my white eg8 and use those power locks and windows just have to use a different key which im fine with
-rebuild my jdm d15b and swap it in sometime next spring hopefully
-put radio in from my white eg8
-swap any good parts from my eg8 like my exhaust and intake etc.
-eventually lower it and get some rotas
nopics now but will post some tomorrow
