Default **Heavy In The Street$ EG V.2**

Hey! My name is Frank and I am the owner of Downstar. Back in 2017 I built a K-series EG that I named "Heavy In The Street$". It had Lambo doors, NOS, gutted interior and all kits of random things. Here are a few pics of it via Hoonigan:




This time we are going with a D-series. Think "2009 era" build. Power is the last thing on my mind. I am excited for this new build and I can't wait to get this vision out of my head and into reality.

In for this. I remember being at Eibach when that EG rolled out way back in the day. I also remember some black with bright green engine bay combo Civic IIRC. Maybe that's how it started? Or maybe it was a diff car...can't really recall, but that car was immaculate as well. I definitely remember seeing this bay right after it was done though.

Cool to see it evolve along with the company.

I took the K-series out. I was planning on going turbo awd built motor but lost motivation. Now I just want a clean D-series that I can daily and not worry about getting tickets for.

That car was my EG6 SIR-S. I still have that one. I just took it out to The Honda Meet in Socal on Sunday.

Most people confuse the Heavy In The Street$ EG with the EG6. The EG6 is rhd and the Heavy is LHD.

A d-series build in 2025!? Cannot wait to see your modern style on a old engine. I'm totally with you in my old age I just want the car to be reliable more then fast.
