Brisbane Turbo Civic

[Phat999]

hey all
i'm new to ozhonda but thort this would b a more honda knowledgeable place to ask this question instead of boostcruising.com
at the moment i have a 94 accord which i am in the process of getting ready for sale to replace it with a EK VTiR civic (B16)
My plans for that is to turbo it by the end of the year when i'm on my opens (so not too lose my licence straight away) but i want to do all my research early and all the way threw the process.
I just want to know which shops are the best to talk to (999 automotive and Hi power?) if theres any others?
and get a general idea from everyone on here who has done it or could give me some ideas/info or help?
any help is greatly appreciated and i will be on ozhonda.com alot more now so might get to know some brissy people some more.
Thanks

whereabouts in brissy are you?
I havent heard much from triple 9, but i thought ivan at hipower mainly dealt with N/A... i could be wrong though.

[Phat999]

western suburbs but i don't mind travelling to gold coast or anywhere around brissy.
I know 999 have just got zero1000 turbo kits and stuff for civics so not too sure hoping to go in next week. and i thort ivan dealt mainly with N/A aswell just putting it out there.

Ivan does deal with just N/A setups, that i know of, but he does sell alot of turbo products also, wouldnt hurt to ask

Would deffinately suggest either parting together a custom kit or purchaseing an AVO or Greddy kit for your b16. Deffinately purchaseing Direct from the USA, deffinately dont buy stuff in oz unless its absolutely necessary.

Ivan at Highpower Raceing is an absolute champ, he knows Lots of stuff but i think he believes more in NA hondas. Triple 9 auto i think i sore with a company Honda Civic at Autosalon. I have herd a little while ago about a few boosted civics comeing out of mahem motorsports too. So IMO those are prolly the guys to check out first.

good luck and stay away from the wankers at boostcruising.com

thanks guys thats the kind of help i was chasing.
i cant wait to upgrade from the accord to the civic.
if anyone wants or knows someone after an accord mine will b for sale when its road worthy in a month or so.
but so looking forward to boosting a civic
