EJ9? I thought for sure this started as an EK4 because of the sunroof. I can't stand how Honda screwed Canada and the U.S. with hatches in 96-00....there are no options!

Oh well...atleast my EJ6 hatch came with a 1.6 instead of the 1.4 like yours did Very nice car, by the way. I like those wheels a lot.

i'm guessing you guys dont have the honda theft ratio that we do in the states cause an dohc vtec sticker on the sides is like a death sentence for any honda here in the southwest. Sick *** ride though.

very nice and clean.

Ya we got screwed on the hatches, there werent **** for options. Although in canada you can get it with a tach and sunroof?

And they must not care about them there because like he said DOHC VTEC stickers over here really read STEAL ME PLS.

Well, no sunroof....but we have a stock tachometer.

The Acura 1.6EL has a few options on it, though, which is good to steal for the hatch Like the red-digit cluster, leather seats, alloy wheels, etc.

car theft here is more to do with where you live. im quite lucky as not much crime happens around here, my mate had his EM1 broken into about 6 months ago, they bent the door apart smashed the window dented the a pillar with a crow bar to prize the door open and then made off and didnt take anything?? had his wallet in there and DVD's on the back seat!? to be honest theres a lot of easier cars to break into than civics here, did you guys get the honda immobiliser standard? Thanks for the good comments Scott

Nice. Been a while since ive seen one of those V2 intakes.. i used to have one that bounced off of the ac and clutch lines and eventually killed itself. Never liked the fit. Awesome car tho

hmmm,
well the fit now is amazing! they even supply a new thinner gearbox mount so the piping fits perfect.
Also the intake actually makes power unlike some of the filters out there, its one of the cheapest "good ones" in the uk as well at £230!

Thanks for the comments
