Re: 91 Civic Si Track Build - B18C-R|EF9 SIR Converted
Took the EF out to Auto Combine in Green Cove, FL this past weekend. Over 1200+ cars attended, cool venue and great food.
A VERY clean EF Sedan. This guy has been building the car since 1994, A true OG! We talked for several minutes about his build and how it go to this point, really cool guy.
Love this shot!
My friends turbo DC.

Just ordered the "race" bolt in roll bar from Autopower for the EF! Cant wait to get it and put seats/harnesses in the car!
Not in a EF, but it looks identical to this. I will be keeping full interior as well.

Yes, I found a trick where I only need to cut a hole the size of the tube. Then Ill be using edge trim to make it look as nice as possible.
Cool! Yeah, me and my buddy got split up when they started the second row, so I pulled back out so I could park with him.

Video from this weekends Auto-x. Missed first place in SMF by .508 in a pretty competitive smf field. Still was 5th fastest overall in Raw time and took 2nd in PAX. Overall, not a bad weekend!

Wait, is that a Jdm front end?
Isn't that illegal for smf then?
Not that I'd protest you, but someone could...

It would be a weenie protest, but they could get you with it:
New Pop-Up headlight rule... - SCCAForums.com - SCCA Racing Discussions - Sports Car Club of America - Racing Discussion Forums - SOLO / Autocross - Street Classes
The Jdm headlights aren't DOT, so that's the big issue.
And if you changed to the Jdm rad support and / or Jdm bumper bar, that is another issue.
Hood, fenders, and bumper cover are wide open.
I'd love to go to the euro plastic housing headlights to save weight for autox (I also campaign an SMF EF), but alas they're not DOT either.

Looks like it actually has to be approved by the DOT to be DOT legal.

Some new toys came in! Major props to Brian over at PCI, he was great to deal with and the product is top notch.
Also make sure to check out 5X Racing Online Race Shop: Mazda Road Racing Specialists for some of the best deals on racing products, ask for John(the owner) and let him know Billy with the EF sent you.
