PROJECT: Carnival Yellow EG6 rhd - Honda-Tech

kenny7 · 08-02-2008, 05:58 AM

Hey,

My name is Kenny i live in Ireland ive been a member for quit a while great site.Ive decided to start a build thread for my new eg6 civic.

This is my 7th civic in 3 years including EK9,EG6's,EK4 but i have decided to keep this one and build it into something.Ive always preferred the eg shape to other honda's.I live in ireland where im a mechanic in a Honda dealership which is great because i get a 25% discount on all parts and that helps alot.

the plans for the car are going to be to fill the car with quality JDM parts mostly SPOON.Engine will hopfully be K20-R from a DC5 integra type r but this wont be until i finish the exterior and get it looking as i want it and when funds allow its a expensive conversion but def worth it imo.in the past ive done B20,B18,B16 conversion and im pretty much done with the B series want to try K :D

It took my agent in japan a very long time to find this car for me as they are extrmly rare in this colour and especially in this condition as yellow fades big time in japan.And i also wanted one in standard form so i could make it my own.

so the car is:

Honda civic eg6
Carnival Yellow y-53
124klm
comes with fog,armrest,gathers speakers
full yellow super rare eg6 interior
Honda alloys
and thats preety much it stock just how i wanted it

as much as i hate bright colored cars, i'd rock the shit out of that. i love the non-generic colored interiors. i'd jump all over a green set if i could find one

WebbSpeed · 08-02-2008, 11:38 PM

Caretaker · 08-02-2008, 11:44 PM

JimmyHoffa · 08-03-2008, 01:59 AM

I remember reading about those rare seats a while, while back...sounds like a quality build with experience.

In fo' it!

jamescardenas07 · 08-03-2008, 02:39 AM

like the color. subscribed

kenny7 · 08-03-2008, 05:05 AM

here even the dealership only gets 27.5% on parts so my 25% is very good.

the rims are honda optional but really not my taste so i bought these yesterday

happycorey · 08-04-2008, 06:10 PM

ABS might be a pain, for tucked the bay, if you were interested in doing it, otherwise it's great. Also LSD and TCS, is a good plus

jr94513 · 08-04-2008, 06:17 PM
