In japan, did they only make hatch and 4 door civics from the years 1992-1995? If not, please give me a model of a 2 door (ex. lxi, si, etc)
Thank you, any help is appreciated!

All coupes are made in the USA and shipped over.

Most of them are called the Civic Coupe STD (standard).

Take a picture of any 92-95 Coupe, and then flop it horizonally so it looks like a RHD car.

They're no different than the USDM coupes except they have sidemarkers, a KMPH speedometer, are RHD, and they have the "Honda of America" eagle badge on the fenders under the sidemarkers.

NOFX

OP, they're not special. They don't have a B-series. They have a D16A. They're non-VTEC (I think). They're an EJ1 (similar to our DX coupes).

These are supposed to be them (click the photos for larger images).

thats what i would imagine but the only civic std pics i can find are hatches..

I added some links. Not really that cool of a car from what I can see. Probably has the same options available as most other Japanese Civics of that generation.

Why would your wife want one? It's a DX from Japan. It's RHD DX.

So she wants to go through the hassle of shipping a car over, making it legal, etc... but she's too lazy/broke/annoyed by the hassle of doing a RHD conversion.

That doesn't make sense.

She's going to pay a buttload (in the event you find one) for one of those. At least the uber leet JDM car I want isn't sold here in any form (I'd actually rather it NOT be RHD too, but there's no way to fix that from what I know).

Say you wanted to buy one. I'll use the more realistic price of the black one instead of the blue one (which said $9453 for it...).

So, $2,100 for the car.
Then $1,800 for the shipping container to the US.
So before it's even in the US you have a nearly $4,000 Civic DX coupe that's probably in crap condition.

Then you have to factor in storage fees, possible transport to the shipping company, fees to make it pass US emissions, fees to make it pass US safety standards, fees to give it a US VIN and make it legal in the US as far as paperwork plus the normal licensing and such.

So $5,000+ for a 13-17 year old old Civic coupe with about 100 horsepower.

A. My wife is no where near lazy, she works 2 jobs, one part time, the other full time, and is taking 16 units of school. It's more of a matter that she doesn't have time/knowledge to do it. And i do not have the time to do it since i work 2 jobs as well and am taking 17 units in school.

B. It's nice to have hookups and know the registration laws here in cali. 1000 for the car (shipped. hookup from a friend of mine). It has to have the stock US engine in it (basically civic ex/dx which she has a 95 civic in the garage right now), with all smog equipment hooked up and working. It has to pass through BAR and REF. All in all, she would be looking $2500 tops for the car registered.

A.) I didn't call her lazy. Those were guesses at why she might not want to do the conversion. I know I would have a professional do a RHD conversion for me if I wanted one. I wouldn't do it at home because I don't need a car that broken apart in my garage taking up space.

B.) I don't believe that price for a second. $1000 for shipping, $2500 for the car to be legal... then you have to add in the cost of the car, the swap and the possible labor. No thanks. I'll stick with a US model instead of a JDM model just so I could say it's RHD.

i honestly don't care if you believe my prices. the person i'm getting it from lived in my house for 3 years without paying rent or any bills. he owes me. yes he will be taking a loss but i took a loss when he was living under my roof. the swap will be coming out of her civic to get past bar and ref then it will be going back in her ex and replaced with something else.

either way no matter what i say you will not believe a word i say until i show you reciepts, and even then you still wont believe me. i know my source is legit and i know what she would be looking at (if she does decide to do it).

Thanks for your helpful information. I do appreciate it.

My boss's brother has a early 90's Honda NSX (JDM).

We went to McDonalds with it to see how much of a pain in the dick it is to order/go through bank drivethroughs, etc.

Getting out and walking around to order blows, I'm not gonna lie.

******* JDM fanboys - and the sad part is it's not even your wife that wants the RHD civic...

PS: I think there was a JDM model from '92-'95, like a VTI or VXI or some bullshit like that - '92-'95 trim, in a hatchback...

EDIT: I'm not sure about that last part (I'm sure about the fact that you're a ricer fan boy, not sure about the "PS") - I don't study JDM bullshit like that.

Hiii Im TYLER

All in all man, Theres honestly no point in a RHD car unless its going to be "Show style" but then again, thats just how I see it. I honestly dont see why you'd want to drive a RHD car, its only more of a reason for it to get stolen, esp. since you live in Cali... But what NOFX stated at the first post is correct.

It's not that I won't believe you... I'll just think it's a waste of money for a RHD DX.

And silly me, before when I said it was probably non-VTEC, it's DEFINITELY non-VTEC. 5th gen Civic chassis codes are based on engines. So all EJ1s have a 1.6L SOHC non-VTEC, including this mad tyte JDM EJ1.

Oh, and I don't study "JDM bullshit" in particular either. I just want to know about Honda. All of their markets. I've come to find the JDM market isn't that interesting.
