Default LOTS of EG-Hybrid Pictures. MUST SEE!

Here's some pictures of a bunch of friends' cars at the shop I work at when we had a hybrid hatchback day.

The last couple of pics of the black EGs are pics of mine and my fiancee's cars. The last pic is an old school one of my car with the 16's

I've since sold the black Si hatchback (the one on Bronze C8s) in favor for a CX. I kept the ITR swap, steats, and wheels/tires to put on the CX.

Enjoy the pics, and PLEASE comment on them so I know I didn't go through the trouble for nothing.









































Thanks for the interest! BTW: the shop you see is my workplace and it's in Georgia. We only do Acuras and Hondas and we do anything and everything to them from routine maintenance to swaps, engine builds, etc.

Later!

Where are you located at?! Any chance near ATL?

Also, for that black Si, what kind of front lip is that? Looks sweet!

So how much does a swap go for these days? Either B16 or B18c.

We're 15 minutes south of Atlanta in Jonesboro, Georgia. We've got 12 full bays - 9 of which have lifts, 2 flat stalls, and 1 with an alignment rack.

The SPOON calipers are on stock-sized ITR rotors.

Oh, the last Tahitian green EG in those pics has a B20Z w/Skunk2 manifold. He wants to do the B20/VTEC conversion once he gets the cash.

The scene ain't bad. You are seeing more and more people who are actually serious about it every day.

The shops name is Acura's & Honda's Specialists. I can vouge for the fact that they do EXCELLENT work. The shop manager is the one who installed my H22 over a year and a half ago. I was the first Accord swap they had done. They had done many Civics before me. He did an excellent job. I am always getting compliments about how clean the install was. the folks at the Honda dealer even questioned me as to how I got a factory installed DOHC Accord. (Yeah, they are idiots there at the dealership) I would highly recommend this shop. The shop owner has more knowledge then he knows what to do with, and the manager ain't far behind. The mechanics are great, and the work is high quality.

They can get parts. As a matter of fact, B18C5-EH2 handles that. I am not sure about the money order thing. Give them a call. They are open Mon-Fri 8am to 6pm EST. They are closed on weekends. The number is 770 603 9197. Ask for Tom.

bah. let me show u guys what the definition of "hybrid" is in thailand



EK Civic with Toyota 3S-GTE engine (MR2 turbo)




EG Civic with Nissan SR20-DET engine (Pulsar GTi-R turbo)



EG Civic with a turbocharged 2.0l B18C.



Here's a Honda City with a turbocharged B16A.

I bet you guys never heard of a Honda City before, eh? They are only available in Asia - smaller and lighter than a Civic Hatchback - only comes with a 1.3l and 1.5l engine (non-vtec), but they fly with an engine swap

Swaps are very very cheap here, so there are a lot of Civics/Accords/Preludes/Citys running around with a B/H-series dropped inside.
