Honda Civic EG6 SIR2 B18c inside

[cantbassed]

Well i havent been on here since may and a few things have happened car wise. i used to have a Toyota Trueno BZG with 1.6 20v unit with individual throttle bodies as standard.

i sold that and bought a honda civic esi for £300

sold that for £300

and put a deposit on a honda civic in japan

while in japan

After waiting 2months in uk docks

picking it up after 20 hour trip, going to Edin from london (by coach) back to essex all in one day and night.

also went pod and got 14.3




so far all iv done to her is taken the cat out. next plans are manifold, injectors, put my old management on (from my starlet glanza).

also i bought another ebay bargin a 1987 bmw 320i for some skid action, but needing it gone.

£100 for anyone who wants it!

hope you enjoy! comments welcome.

woah, you little jap slag lol. Didn't you used to have that sexeh mk2b sporting?

Civic is kewl, BMW is cool too lol drifting FTW! has it got tax? .

Liking the Civic, had a drive in a 1.4 auto version of them a while back. Not a fan of the auto, but the rest of the car was decent.

Was looking at getting a EK9 Type R, though other Hondas are on the cards too...s2000 for example. Of course, Hondas make up only a small fraction of the "Possibles List" I've made up

If you dont mind me asking, how much was it to import the civic and the cost of the civic itself?

I have always wanted an Jap import but have never really got round to asking about them.

I have a few friends with civics, I absolutely love them!

cheeky wee EK9 would do me

Jap imports are great value for money, and come with goodies that we wish we had on the UK versions.

You should look at getting them undersealed (Japs don't use salt) and loose the jap tyres pronto, they are usually old, cracking and have less grip than you average banana !!

The radio is pot luck, some need an expander and end up just getting radio 2 - good game !!

If you decide to go mad and get a 4x4 for offroading MOVE the foglight, the importers normally hang them under the rear bumper, and they don't last long

muppet42: well id say this is my 1st proper honda, as the esi was not all that great, but the shape of them i just love! im very much in love with the integra type r (dc5). even the accord type r i love with the green recaro's etc etc! yum!

nathan: (sorry im not going to count how many a's and n's etc there are! lol)

i paid £6.2k for mine but thatw as a on the road price and from a highly recon mended seller who buys them privatly owned in japan, rather than auctions. so i knew exactly what i was getting was the best etc.

as udtrev said they need to be under sealed and the rear fog to be relocated. mine was done when it got in the uk by the company i got the car from.

Private Imports

good luck if you do go to get a import next!

i imported this from jap, it cost me £800 to get it over in the uk, then i had to pick up from liverpool docks, its massive so it would be even cheaper for a smaller car.

[Brookesy]

[GhostWKD]

Im not a huge fan of civics (bar the jordan which as crap a special edition as it was really i did like it) and of course bar the EK9 TypeR but i actually really really like that

 

[blu73]

All that revving about with the temp guage off the bottom.. tut tut lol

Not a big fan of civic's either but damn that sounds good!!

my temp gauge is unplugged, but i have defi gauges plugged in instead which is where my heater controls would be. my heater controls are now in the glove box! lol but it was all warmed up before i done the vid. plus vtec dont work on cold engines, which can be annoying! lol

Had someone having a go at my car from the PPC trackday. Saying I was going past too slow. Think they were waiting for my VTEC to kick in Yo! as I was doing 6k down the straight. Torque, something Jeremy Clarkson and VTEC boys don't seem to understand.

EG6 SIR2 B18c - Sounds like an Intel processor model number - not a car.

 

[blu73]

good good

 

[cantbassed]

alot of honda drivers think there cars are the bee's knee's! its a shame as alot are really ****. and gives a negative opinion on the rest who enjoy all cars in general.

well heres some new updated pics. i got bored of the wheels and added some amber indicators

 

[Donna]

I really liked your Trueno, i think i know the new owner Si from the Durham area?

The civic is nice, couldnt you have got a EK9 for that money though?

John Fallon is a top guy for bring in cars, ive seen a lot of them through hondatech events and they are really great examples, hope you enjoy it

 

[cantbassed]

yeh i sold the trueno to someone from durham, owner of the crx de-sol forum i think...? i do miss that car, due to its comfyness! and no-one had a clue to what it was.

i didnt deal with john, i dealt with david, but over all top people!!!! i would reconmend to anyone who wants a top import car. worth ever penny!

i tell you im enjoying ever minute!
