Congrats... really awesome hatch. The Nickel 949's really work with the color. What power train do you have ??? If you ever get over to the "Ham"... look me up. I would love to see it in person. Clean hatches are getting more and more rare... there are a bunch of really crappy ones in my area. I gotta get mine painted... if I could just find a Mugen chin spoiler... then it would be spectacular like yours.

I'd say it's as clean under the hood as it is outside, and interior wise. (Yes I'm going to replace that small section of torn foam liner for the A/C line.)



How many miles?
250,000 on body. MUCH fewer miles on everything else LOL!!!

That's an AEM cold air intake for the 99-00 Civic Si with the B16A2 originally, and then I sprayed it with high heat matte black paint for a subtle look.

Beautiful hatch. Haven't seen a clean one like that in over 5yrs around here. They are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

CT Engineering kit on 13psi via a K24A larger crank pulley, and smaller blower pulley. 325whp. The best part is it has ice cold A/C, cruise, full interior, and electric P/S pump with DC GS-R rack that I can turn the pump on or off depending on driving conditions.

Holy ****... I'm so jealous right now it's unbelievable. Super clean car, amazingly clean bay, everything looks VERY cleanly installed and complete...

Also, I always wondered if a positive displacement supercharger like what you have would fit on a K swapped EG with front end clearance. Now I know...

Mad jellz bruh.

Edit: Whaaat, just realized where your condenser and radiator are located... I've never seen a K swapped EG with AC that didn't still use the OEM rad location...

In all the years I've seen K swaps done on 92-00, I've never seen someone use a CT-E kit on these chassis, or seen anyone actually retain and reintegrate the immobilizer rather than just deleting it or overriding it in Hondata.

Makes me happy to see there are still people out there that really delve into the fine details of these builds.

Yeah man, this car is an extremely well-executed build. The builder is a guy in Tennessee who goes by "Pojo" and he's a Honda master tech. He built this thing literally EXACTLY how I'd have built one had I ventured into another EG build - only I'd have likely gone K20A-R, and no blower. I would not have had the gumption to do a blown K20, nor the custom one-off engine/dash harness he made from using ETMs for the RSX, and Civic, while retaining immobilizer, OBD2 scan port, and/or Hondata K Pro USB code check ability. Had I kept my silver hatch it would have had full interior, K swap, etc. etc. eventually. Pojo added power windows, locks, kept cruise, etc. and I honestly would not have gone that far - I'm glad he did. It's truly an evolved, grown-up version of the Civics I drove in the late 90's and early 00's.

I built the silver EH2 you saw earlier in this thread, and for that time in my life it was perfect. Now I'm 38, have two kids, and wanted to buy something that was built to my own picky tastes, and this checked all the boxes. It has all the comfort stuff, faster than any Honda I've ever owned by a large margin, and has a 100% perfect body in an amazing color. I kept coming across amazing builds, but they'd always have some major pitfalls like no A/C, or stripped back half, or it'd be bright yellow or have a mismatched painted bay in bassboat flake.

I've got some plans for this to put my own personal flare on it, but if I did literally nothing to it other than swap out the coilovers for something stiffer it'd still be perfect. I plan on tossing those Spoon SW388 wheels you see on my old silver hatch, stiffer full coilovers, and likely swap the mirrors out for something else while retaining the power feature they currently still have functional. Mechanical-wise I'll probably do a built transmission with a nice LSD, taller first gear, and maybe a taller 6th gear for highway cruising...maybe NOT on the tall 6th as currently it PULLS through 4th, 5th, and doesn't lose anything shifting into 6th.

I'm trying to get an old card formatted to clear up space to snap some quick interior pics with my decent camera/flash since we're getting stormed on here in GA.

I saw this car for sale on FB. It really is a perfect build. Glad it went to a good home. Looking forward to your own spin on it.
