New to the site. Currently building an EK Type R clone
Good Morning Everyone.
My name is Chris, and I am new to this forum. I have been a honda freak since early boyhood, and I am looking forward to getting to know the community. I am currently trying to build a civic EK hatch and transform it to to a Type R clone. The main struggle for me is that I am also a Paraplegic and have no use of my legs, so what ever drive tain I use it would have to be an automatic. It truly sucks because I really miss driving stick! But i will not let that stop me from building me dream car. I am at the beginning stages of my build, and trying to decide on a k swap or a B16 with an integra s4xa auto. I'm not 100% sure if that trans will fit on a B16 or if it can be programmed to it. I would prefer to use the B16 because the engine is an icon, and also I'm a bit of a purist. Thought I'd start by asking opinions on the best way to go. Either a merc supercharged k24a2 with a modified 5 speed auto or a turbo b16 with a modified integra auto 4 speed. Im sure this topic has been asked to death, so I apologize for asking.
thank you!
PS- this is going to be strictly a street driving car, not a racer!
