Hey guys,
So I started my obsession with Honda's 5 years ago and put my savings towards a one owner/28000km/Championship White DC5R. It was and still will be my first true love, but as of 3 days ago the DC5R was sold onto a friend who I know will give it all the love that I did.
Anywho, a few months back I went searching for a Civic. After trolling carpoint for a month, I thought it best to try an alternative method and gave tradingpost/gumtree a whirl. My theory was old people that own EK/EG Civics know only of the tradingpost nd I could potentially snap up a clean low km example. After 3 hours of searching using my newly developed strategy I found the car.

Anyway it ticked every box I was looking for, and I picked it up a week later from Port Melbourne :)
I have spent many nights in discussion with friends kicking around Ideas for what this car would become. So I have sussed outmy options and I've decided its going to be mix of 3 car types.
Stanced :P
Track Warrior XD
Daily :)
Most will think this is impossible, but with the backing of the 'Teg' Im hoping this is some what achieveable...
I went crazy for first 2 weeks owning the EK and bought:
Type R Front Lip
Type R Rear Lip
Type R Grille
Spoon Carbon Fibre Wing
JDM Yellow Fog Lights
Window Visors
Phillips Crystal Vision
Then I went through the pain staking process of spray painting every moulding, lip and various other black trimmings to give it that cleaner look.
I went to Japan late last year, with my mate Sem and among various JDM trinkets I picked up a couple items for the EK.
