Well...After getting rid of the H2B ef, I started having some regret .. I told myelf that I needed to find a clean ef hatch/4door so I can do something crazy again! I ended up selling my eg coupe and found this...









I ended up picking this up for 1,200 buck from a older couple in Richmond.. The paint is in really good condition, had no rust, and all power options still work! Wheels and suspension will be done here soon, But i'm still kicking around ideas for the swap... It's between a built single cam turbo setup, A all motor B series, or do another h2b.

 

I'm jealous.

 

Thats a steal for $1200 man haha

 

Nice find. Looks identical to my sedan. Same color and hubcaps...lol as far as the motor goes i did a mini me with a z6 head and went obd1. I was happy with the gain but wanted more. So i found a jdm gsr. And its a beast with the gsr. Good luck with whatever route you go. Ill try to get a pic of mine as soon as i figure out how to from this stupid iphone

all motor B is what i'd choose
gl man
subbed.

 

After talking it over with a few friends, I'm going to go through with a built single cam turbo setup... I keep catching **** because I've always talked about doing it, but never follow through.

 

If you dont do it, youll be ghey

 

I love it when people save old EF civic's I have an EF wagon and love nothing more to see a nicely modded EF when driving around town. Good luck with the build and that is a sweet deal for $1200

 

Ok

I'm excited about this route anyways. I've been wanting to see what we can get out of a single cam lol.

 

Looks real tidy. Nice find.

 

Ok, well went to order coilovers and lca's today.. Has anyone else had problems with a online purchase with jhpusa.com? I spent 20 minutes on the phone with my bank making sure all my info was correct so they could take my monies, but it still kept declining it... On top of that, They are holding my money for 1-2 days until it gets refunded back to my account.

 

I HATE YOU!!! lol.... Why not just buy my EF Sedan!????

 

great condition! hard to find ones like that in southern canada

 

Damn it looks clean
You should do a sleeper turbo setup, I want to eventually find an unmolested sedan and make it look like its stock dpfi in the engine bay but actually have it boosted

 

lol, I didn't know your car was for sale! You make any progress on the sedan? I ended up buying a z6 swap for 60 bucks, but the motor needs to be rebuilt ( perfect for what I plan..).

 

Engine took a **** on me tonight... time to start this swap

 

Sorry to hear that. I'm looking forward to seeing it post-swap though.

 

dang what happened? timing belt go?

 

I have the same color as well...thought i was unique when i first go it

 

lost compression in cylinder #2.. Not sure of the cause.

 

I know I haven't posted much, but here is a update...

my **** got hit


Went and got a estimate done, and they told me around 2,400 bucks to fix. The guy's insurance is covering the bill hopefully, and I would love to have a nice check in the mail within the next few day. I also started tearing down the d16z6 and should have some pics of that up soon.

 

Check from USAA showed up today, so I ordered seibon carbon fiber hood and fenders.. I will update pics within a week.

 

$2400 ************ what!?!?!?
someone please love tap me....

 

The insurance company didn't total the car?

The damage sucks, that car looked like a nice original survivor.

 

They did total it out... It was either them take the car and cut me a check for 1,900, or i keep the car and they give me 1,700. Seeing as there was no damage to the core support or anything I decided to keep it.
