Hi all

Hey guys, been a member for a while now, decided I should at least say hi =)
I had a pretty heavily modified WRX previously and traded up (hehe) to a stock 96 EK.
So far I've done brake pads, coilovers, swaybars, chassis bracing, bushes, lower control arms, steering wheel, seats and a few other little things. Stripped out the rear of the car last weekend and going to remove all the sound deadening soon.
The WRX was heavily modified but for street use (very fast response, fairly compliant coilovers, savage brakes) and to be honest was a little disappointing at the track because of the compromise for street use. The EK won't be having the same problem hehe =D
Anyway so far I'm enjoying the EK and doing all the mods myself (I had a workshop do everything on the WRX) and I hope to continue building and enjoying the car.
Cheers.

Hey mate,
I've been in a stock 99' wrx and they fly.. cant imagine to be in a heavily modified one lol
So is the EK going to be a complete track car?

Hey noob.

Yeah the WRX was pretty fast, but honestly the Honda is more fun on the street =) Yep, the EK is going to be a track car thoguh I'm planning on keeping it street registered.

Welcome man hope you enjoy the forums! Yeah Civics are great cars for track n street, I'm currently doing an EG but its gonna be a ssslllloooowwww build until i get a better job. You gonna do an engine conversion on this one?

Cheers guys, yeah I'll get some pics when I wash it at the weekend. I'm thinking I'll do a B18C conversion, but it'll be a while before that happens. More important things to upgrade first hehe :)

Do a build thread imo, i love reading about the things people to do their Civics, it gives me inspiration of what i wanna do and i learn alot in the process so you're doing me a favour as well :P
