Does anyone on this forum still have a civic sir whether it be an ef or eg? Are there many left or have they all been tracked and destroyed?

Good idea for a thread, i'd love to know how many real EF9/EF8/EG6/EG9's there are takkin' around the country.. Genuine EK9/EP3/JDM DC2/DB8/JDM DC5's also interest me.

A genuine road registered ek9 would interest me.

I swear I saw a yellow one at cabramatta Hungry Jacks once but its probably to good to be true.

From what ive heard u can personally import one after owning it in Japan for a year?

Yeah but its not as simple as buying one and letting it sit there for a year before you bring it over.

The way import laws state, with anything built after 1989 is that you must own it while living there for at least 12 months, have proof of when you bought it, proof that you lived there, proof of registration etc etc.

There are 2 I have seen here in Perth

have HNNNNGGGGG'd muliple times.

Yeah you have to have proof it wasnt just registered in your name for 12 months, but apparently you need proof you were actually THERE with it the whole time. So you cant go to UK, rego one in your name, fly home and then 12 months later bring it in.. so you need rental receipts, general receipts and utility bills etc.

Good point about the EP3's, only seen a handful over here in Perth though :(

aww well, if you want to be added to the list, post here :)

One was written off.. so only one legit one left as far as I know..

PLEASE ONLY POST IF YOUR CAR IS ONE OF THE ABOVE MODELS (not that you saw one..)

Lol, I saw 2 at the last JDMST meat in Melb

In fact, I rode in one on the way there. Facelift, Championship White. Very loud vtec crossover. I think there are 3 known genuine EK9's in Melb.

I got an EK9. Was one of the ones driven to the JDMST meet (although not by myself). Genuine with actual EK9 chassis, defiantly not cut & shut.

Lots of people claiming EK9's out there but using EK1 or EK4 chassis (everything swapped and done very well, but in my opinion if it's not an EK9 unless you have the chassis too).

both genuine man, not kidding hey.

Mate knows one of them, he paid someone to import it over (obviously someone owned it in Japan for longer then a year)

Theres only the 2 of them that I know of though.

Saw a genuine fake ek9 last night at myaree utopia, could be that same one

Out of curiosity - how much did it cost you?

you can tell in vic about in the 90's there was a rebuild scheme where e.g wrote of an ek1 you were eligible to import an equivelent like an ek9 you'd get new vin like 6S9REBUI1L9 or 6repv (replaced vehicle)

also personal imports would have the the word and number ek9 in the new issued vin no.

some non genuine would be rebirths such as an ek9 with standard ek1 vin number swaped cut weld etc etc.
