Starting on my ek 97 looking for ek9 parts please help

[davey174]

I need parts for my ek looking to do a ek9 conversion please help I'm soo noob at this but I love my civics !

[TranceZiggy]

Check JDMYard (Trader section of OzHonda). They have some JDM EK9 parts (lips, headlights, gear knobs etc).

The JDM stuff is fair pricey though, you can go with cheaper (and crappier) eBay stuff. Just search "Honda Civic EK9".

Those two are probably the easiest ways to get EK9 parts. Other than that, try your luck at wreckers, or just google the parts youre looking for.

When you say "conversion", what do you mean? Are you just trying to make the EK look like an EK9 or are you looking at engine swaps etc.?

[davey174]

Trying to make it look like the ek9 and do engine swap aswell but in the future I want to take my time doing the build and just make sure I pay top dollar for it :)

[impossi13le]

what variant have you got? cxi gli or vtir? having a vtir from the start will make the whole conversion process a whole lot easier. wouldnt need to source out engine loob/gbox/driveshafts etc. there is a thread about ek9 conversion on here not too long ago, if you scroll back a page or two im sure youll find it. good luck!

you probably would be more happy with a b18c7 engine swap rather than ek9 exterior swap

Since it's a gli you'd need to source out a wiring loom and engine mounts (just go aftermarket) and mount brackets off an ek4 and whatever gearbox you want to use with the b series. i'm using a S4C gearbox on my b18 an it's actually alright for street, good low end pull from the short ratio 1st 2nd and 3rd gears and longer ratio 4th and 5th gives better cruising haha.

theres a package for a whole b18c7 swap on the for sale thread for about 5K with the whole lot (excluding loom and mounts), should snap that up! or if you want to go the cheaper option, same dude is selling a b18c2 package for 1.5k, which is super duper cheap!

update us with your progress bro :)

It's like 15-20k build to swap to ek9. I hope you know how to install shit too else you'll get raped. Your anus must be bleeding money. Good luck
