Hey there guys, all I can say Is I have been doing research... I'm sorry to dissapoint but I don't own a civic yet but due to recent circumstances I am currently on the lookout for some decent 92-94 civic , hatch or sedan, Im even considering the carby model (but not the BREEZE!) . It's crazy yeah but as far as running costs and such go I believe its a good idea :D
WISH ME LUCK FRIENDLY OZHONDARERS
that model is overpriced due to honda fanboy
maybe better find a corolla for reliable runabout
COROLLA HAHAHAHAHA watajk
I will ned you in a minnit m8 u here me
^ umm what ? Mate if you're a ToyoFan i suggest you get off here and sell your Honda or hand over the keys, tsk tsk.
bluesliped for new motor and manual conversion FINALLY lol. and test fitting my new wheels deff need to get some coilovers to get the front a tad lower

Attachment 25500 sticker bombed fuel door...just seeing how it looks lol. got a spare one from wreckers off an eg hatch...doesn't fit exact, help?

Been awhile since i posted anything. Ordered new wheels, they arrived and didnt fit :( so sold those and have some more wheels coming from japan.
Also got my windows tinted

Installed rear hatch window strut as one was broken when I got the car. while trying to install strut figured I'll use the other side as a reference on how the plug, rubber washer and nut goes together on the window only to find out it was broken as well and missing the nut that goes behind the window =(
I painted the wipers matt black, fitted new windscreen surrounds, fitted new weather strips on both doors, fitted new door trims, fitted a cup holder, and painted the roof mouldings in Plastidip matte black. Replaced the bent and tatty board that covers the spare wheel in the boot, with a piece of black perspex, light and strong.
Also painted ONE of my wheels in Plastidip White, interested to see how durable it is, how dirty it gets from brake dust, and how easy it is to clean.
I also bought an oven off ebay for 99 cents!
I plan to paint the wheels in championship white, and bake them in the oven to improve the durability of the paint. We will see how that goes. My wife won't let me bake wheels in the kitchen!
Decided to stop putting my engine in and posted it for sale...

then i decide to put it in anyway :)
http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/a...g?t=1381237357
i replaced my ignition coil...
I vacuumed the inside for weight reduction.
removed all my interior trim and sound deadening. prepping to respray the interior.
order some goodies too from jdmyard :D
Plastidip sucks I have decided. White for a week, then grey and black because of the brake dust. Yes, you can clean them, but they only come up average. Black or dark colours would be OK. Rattle canned 2 of my wheels in white, baked in the "oven" for 4 hours at 150 degrees (according to my metallurgist friend this will do NO harm to the strength of the alloy). The paint has set like a rock, very hard. Polished the paint with 1500 wet and dry, then water rubbing compound, then polish, and they look like new.
New Spoon duracon knob, and a set of 20 Gorilla lock nuts to keep the wheels in place.
People need to relax and put the plastidip cans down. It never looks good on anything.
Its been a long time since i have posted any pictures of my recent project.
I have gotten tired of my AWD and have since moved back to a Honda.
After reading pages and pages of build threads i got to work on my own.
I will be using this car as a Track dedicated car and currently running a D16 SOHC. Once the motor blows, i will decide what upgrade will follow.
I have removed all the interior and sound deadening as well as the firewall padding.

Things To Do/Buy
Paint the Interior (not sure on colour yet....ideas?)
Coilovers
ITR Rear Sway Bar
ASR Subframe
Camber Kit F+R
Bride Seat
X Brace
Nardi Steering
15" Wheels
Not sure what else i will end up getting for the car.
but will update as i progress.
Dead right, plastidip sucks, BUT, I will say, the one thing I have found it useful for is the mouldings in the roof. Painted them a nice matte black in Plastidip. The plastidip smoothed out all the tiny cracks, and gives a nice finish. I must admit though on REALLY hot days the plastidip feels a bit tacky.
Fit some new wheels onto my civic

Bringing a topic back from the dead but today got to install front mud flaps, flat amber indicators, jdm coin pocket, jdm power folding mirrors control, jdm floor mat hook, and jdm front speaker mounts and 16cm speakers.
Finally found some time to work on the eg. Still on the list to do...
Install rear speaker setup from vti, change to advan rims I have sitting in the backyard, install rear mud flaps, and look for more parts to buy and install =D
Trying to find a jdm d15b vtec engine to install.
Should get this thread rolling again^^
Maike, plz post some pictures :)

Nice, some kool parts there. Would love the folding mirrors, i see u got the ember clock and oem matts too :)
haha no amber clock. just bad lighting =D I do have a eg6 sir white face cluster that I haven't installed yet. Waiting on a vtec motor then I'll install it haha.
I'm just collecting random jdm parts for the car.
Hahaha must be lighting. Should just install the eg6 cluster anyways, easy pz job :)
Yeah those jdm bits are good to have. Btw u can purchase the double din block off plate from jdmyard. Thats if u want to block that gap.
Finally installed my advan rz-df rims today. Will be 4wd height till I can save for some coilovers.
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...psf126f040.jpg
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...ps849d8420.jpg
Will run these till I can find a set of equips 01 in 15x7 =D
Also picked up some jdm plastic headlights and road flare mount.
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...pse130de6f.jpg
Wish the body was bit cleaner but its on the repair list.
nice! did u get bulbs with them headlights?
The wheels look good man.
Can I just ask, what's the point in running plastic headlights? I always thought glass was far better because it never fades..?
I'd pay top dollar for some glass headlights on my DC2.. if they existed. lol
I guess its just personal preferance. Plastic headlight is way lighter though.
They lighter and I read the light beam is better? Will find out when I install them.
Yeah I got bulbs with them =D h4h bulbs...
If the lighting is better I will keep them, otherwise will just go back to the glass ones.
Stanley h4h is good. I had some generic bulbs, shittest lighting ever
Finally installed my double din, eg9 front lip and eg9 cluster. Still have to install eg9 long armrest and paint thr rg9 flush spoiler. Eg9 part whore XD
sounds good, any picks :)
Will upload when I get home
*Thumbs up 2MPRS* I got a lot of my parts off a eg8 at a local wrecker =D It still has the jdm window visors and seats on it last time I visited it.
couldnt find eg9 seats and when i did they wanted ridiculous amounts. so ek sedan rear seats and some form of bucket seats for the front.
undecided on motor acutally want to build it myself and learn and im really tempted on building a d16y1 just because f uu to the bseries boys lol
Eg9 interior is hard to find. And ur right people want alot for them. Db8r rear sears fit straight in the 5th gen sedan. Thats also exy, but nice with recaros ar front.
B series ftw, but everyones different :)
Ek sedan vtec seats are the same as the db8 seats just dont have the red stitching. I got some cheapies for 20bucks to bad they are just standard ek seats but something diff
I gues that isnt to bad, only said cos it suits recaros :)
I'm with you 2MPRS on da engine. I'm trying to find a jdm d15b vtec for my eg. If I can't find one then will consider doing a mini me conversion. just something different and I want to run a 1.5l engine =D
i have a d16y1 the money i spend on a b16 id rather learn how to build a motor and b16 vs d16y1 is really not that much of a diff when both are built
Both motor has disadvantages and advantages. But its up to u what u build. Just turbo the sohc ahah
Been long time since this thread has been used hahahaah
Dunno how much I agree with there not being much difference between sohc and twin cam vtec but good on you for choosing to DIY build. :thumbsup:
Should check out grifty's MA3 build thread, he's got a D16 frank with JRSC supercharger. I think it's going to be pretty damn good. When it comes to sohc engines I honestly think building for boost is the way to get power as they don't respond well to NA modifications.
Best of luck for the build regardless.

Eg6 Fujitsubo exhuast
no rasp is the best kind of rasp
had a quick kiss with a ute
damn that sucks D16. Least the damage wasn't really bad looking at the photo. Could of been a write off haha. Hopefully doesn't cost you much to fix.
the ute took more damaged than me:p, took out their spare wheel rack and somehow bend their exhaust
Picked this up today. Was an EK owner but.. Now I am in the EG family..

Not sure if anyone posts in here, but yolo. This is my EG5, some douche decided they'd smash my tail light (only slightly) and not leave a note. I was parked in Ringwood, didn't see this was smashed till the next morning. Instantly scoped the internet to find a replacement, got one today, $45 later. Anyway, this is what I did to my EG today.
