Well this regulation was implemented under Howard's reign so maybe you could fill out a SEVS application form with the appropriate criteria/evidence and politely ask Rudd to remove Howard's head from Howard's arse?

so far I have 2 black EF9's offered to me. I'd take either EG6/EF9 if it's in good condition. The fact the poll id so even tells me they are both just as good. This certainly isn't about which is faster cause the money I could spend on my GTI instead of buying JDM civic would make it a beast.

You know what I'm talking about..."iz JDM, iz good" :thumbsup:

any pics of these cars
so we can see what all the fuss about ef9s are about ?

simple as that too

All an EG6 is, is just an EG with bolt ons, who gives a damn about the vin plate saying EG6.
You can make any EG into an EG6 with boltons.
But as was said previously, why bother making it to EG6 specs, if you gona do up an EG you would make it better then EG6 specs anyway. All an EG6 is, is a very lightly modified civic done by Honda, wow.
EK9, DC2R, FD2R etc these are true wank factor cars as you can't replicate these cars with bolt ons as they all have chassis specific mods aka DC2R has thicker wheel arches etc etc

So by saying that other EG's with B16a's in them and mods that meet or exceed EG6 spec are not the real deal your saying it wasn't assembled by Honda, true but who cares, wow, how crap they all must be as they wern't assembled in Japan.
I better never rebuild my engine then cos it was done for JDM by Honda and if I rebuild it it won't be the real JDM deal. lol People get to hung up on JDM way to much, its hilarious how much $$ and pain people will go to just cos its JDM.

If everytime you open your bonnet and you go weak at the knees when you glance at the plate that says EG6 then just buy one, otherwise build one or buy one that that is better specked.
All the fastest track civics in Oz are neither EF9's or EG6's but just normal EG's and EF's that have been modified.
EK9 and up are where Honda started paying attention to chassis mods that go beyond what the eye can see.
Cars generally get better the newer they are thanks to technology and no the FN2 is not better then an EP3 but the FN2 isn't even a Type R is it, its just a badge. The JDM civic Type R is the FD2R and yes that is better then EP3.

So if you must get a JDM civic, EF9 or EG6 go the EG6, it is a better car and you don't need a silly OZHONDA pole to tell you that, honda do not make newer cars worse then previous models and the EF9 was not some civic nirvana.

Like Lan said, some people just don't get it all together. Simple as that:)

No I don't get it. Why don't you come out to the track and show me what all this JDM SIR stuff is all about.
Don't you have like some special advantage cos its JDM, or maybe the advantage is in your pants and it sounds like "menis txtension"

EG6 and EF9 are cool but at the end of the day its just bolt ons done in Japan and if you use it for circuit work all the stuff that makes an EG6 or an EF9 special either gets ripped or upgraded anyway.

the eg6 fanboy inside him is coming out as soon as people start saying ef9s are better.

because My JDM ef8 isn't built for the track.

There is no super performance advantage over a fully built race civic.

Its just the little things, where the JDm model is just so much btter than the AUDM counterpart and when you look at those details, you just can't help but smile.

Like you said, its cool:)

PS - does Tai bum**** you spastic?????

Yes 100% agree. The OZ spec civics are homo in STANDARD form. The JDM SIR'S do have nice touches like the rear seat setup, climate control etc
I dunno why people think they king dick for owning one though, they are nice in standard form, thats it, as soon as you start modifying a 1.3 Breeze or an EG6 there is only the vin plate separating them.
The Outright 2L and under lap record holding car in W.A is based on an EG Breeze.

Anyway back to the topic - EF9 VS EG6, get an EG6 lol
