im torn between 92-95 hatch or 95 coupe but then this week ive seen many 88-91 civic hatches that look good and im leaning to them now.I searched for how much a jdmef front end would cost and someone said 575 dollars i was wondering if some ppl could give me sites where i could buy one.My plan is first to get a nice cheap ef hatch i see them go for 600,500 even 200 sounds good cuz if i do get one for one of these prices ill immedietly drop in a sohc vtec motor.I hope to get a black ef so i can get some rota circuit 8s in bronze intake and some suspension which will be first when i get the car.So sounds like a good plan to me and the car will look nice maybe drop a b16 after a while and jdmef front end i cant wait .Funny i have like 4000 i should buy an ef now

 

I'd stay away with the coupe...its just me...EF and EG hatches I was going to say, only drawback from an EF, putting in B-series motors requires new mounts and stuff, but since you're putting in a SOHC motor anyway...more power to you

 

if u can slap a SOHC VTEC and buy a car cheap u will be happy for a while
then save for a good power mod.. and slap a turbo and ****.... but yeah going for an EF its a great deal.!

 

EFs are great. i couldnt be more happier with a car. make sure you get an Si and work off of that or if you wanna swap, get a DX or HF.

 

thx guys

thinking of putting mine CRX up for sale. hit me up if interested and we can talk. i'd keep it but the CRX really does me no good with 3 kids.

 

once you use a 4th gen civic/2nd gen crx, you never go back.

 

oka im doing research on this ecu but once someone said get a shoc vtec engine and a p28 ecu and your good to go.I was wondering whats so great about this ecu and what tranny would you get?

 

you'll need to convert to obd1 to use a p28
tranny you'll probably want to stick with 88-91 si. you dont have a lot of options as you need to stick with the cable trans

why are you buying an ef if you already have a b18c powered eg ???
you're not gonna get much of an ef for $500

unless you have a use for a second car id say save your money and buy something useful

 

lol that just one of those priceless ads you kno i dont have a car yet
