this is how i got her when my dad gave it to me as a graduation gift







then didnt like how she looked so i painted them rims white



then got a fiberglass mugen chin



body colored it then this is what i got



then got tired of the look, painted the door and bumper mouldings flat black then got a new fiberglass ek4 chin





a few pics from our fun run in a mountain pass





THEN something bad happened, i slammed into a trailer

 

no choice but to fix her
and fix her is what i did, got her new bumpers, new fender JDM headlight, good thing didnt hit the chassis, no misaligned stuff then this is what came after, since those yokohama A.drives skid forever until the trailer became my brakes i had to change them too, budget friendly but performs well good ol nankang NSII ultra sport also got tires of my old rims had to change them also

and here is what i got

 

well got tired of how she looked again, i wanted to change her again for the year 2011, my hands were a bit itchy to spend some cash, so this is what she looks now, got a pair of carbon fiber hood and trunk, fiberglass spoon chin we mounted it in a different way so that it hugs the bumper coz if you'll mount it the way spoon does it would literally kiss the ground on my current ride height

















more plans for her for the year 2011
first on the list
maybe blox LCA silver color then ASR subframe brace then CTR swaybar,

gettin tired of how she runs, its just a ph15a sohc-non vtec just changed the tranny to a close ratio. i dunno what is its equivalent in other countries, here is a short vid i did
just doing some quick pulls after changing the tranny

Thanks for viewing

 

need your opinions, should i get the red or black recaro sr3? then for the harness takata or recaro?

 

Sedan is looking good bro

 

thanks bro

 

nice ride you got there sir, i also have the same model 1996 civic vti cyclone blue, UFY *** plate. love what you've done to yours, im waiting for december so i could setup my car.

 

just some new pics

 

 

Car looks great man, awesome progression. I love EK sedans do you have any closer pics/tips on how you mounted the Spoon lip? I'm about to pick one up and I think the way you had it looked good.

 

Philippines baby! I'm American but lived there for a while. Crazy shizzle going down in the philies man! Great build and what parts you located? I lived in Bacolod City and Ilo Ilo... Visayans FTW! BUT Luzon is cool mang!

 

nice! i wish i can build mine there coz everything is cheap in the phil..

 

thanks guys

@tron - sorry i dont have any closeup pics but its pretty easy to mount it, i just used a fiberglass chin from a friend, i suggest you remove the bumper so that you can fit it tight as f*ck no gaps.

@wreckin-rex91 - hey there! hope you enjoyed your stay here, since its summer here in the philippines, there gonna be alot more carshows in the next week, that revup show sucked a bit tho, i was supposed to join the LOUDEST roar but the organizers uhmmmm forgot that damn thingy majiggy that measures the decibels hahahaha. last time i clocked in 119.6decibels using stinger exhaust

@Mint Imports - yes bro majority of parts here are pretty cheap, specially spoon,mugen etc etc body kits, there are countless fabricators here so getting them is also pretty easy.

hope you take some time browsing our FB fanpage

Nice sedan..
Btw.are those real spoon wheels?

 

i had real spoon wheels before but this big pothole f*cked 2 of them and my ad08 so had to throw them away . . . . just bought these rotas since im a little low on money, then just a week ago hit the same pothole . . . to my surprise there was nothing on them rotas . . . .strange. . . . those spoon wheels should be tougher than these rotas

 

just a few vids of me fooling around on the road

props pare! dang i miss pinas. Keep it going....... looking clean. When are you gonna swap out that single cam motor?

 

Now that I think about it, I have only seen EK sedans in threads from PI. No coupes or hatches.

 

@vinmotors - thanks bro! i am still trying to decide if i'll boost this single cam or go with a b18c5, coz single cams are not what they used to be anymore, reputable shops here can squeeze out enormous amounts of hp and torque from single cams nowadays hahaha. B-series motors are so damn overpriced right now. . . . . . b16a eg will cost you around Php150,000 then a b18c5 Php230,000

@Rude Awakening - honda never released coupe and ek hatches here in the Philippines i dont exactly know why, but it really sucks . . . . . . if only they made and release a coupe version of our siR(b16a) here that would have been awesome, our only way of getting them is through importers and if you go with 100% legal process it will put a big hole in your pocket.

 

Looking Clean!

 

thank bro! your build looks great

 

Recaros look sick. Are they actual ITR/CTR ones or just the red ones you can buy from Recaro? I'm thinkin about gettin a set but used ITR recaros are actually cheaper...

 

Thanks! they are EK9 recaros which i got from a friend, he also gave me the EK9 railings for free haha. if you are going to get the ITR recaro(black) and put it on an EK/EM i suggest you use your stock railings so you can bolt all 4 on the floor

 

Alright thanks!
