Hello From the UK

[API_Tom]

Hi Guys and Gals, nice to digitally meet you...

Joining you from the midlands UK today,
Im 22, work in a Japanese Performance Garage and I absolutely love Hondas, I have previously had a Honda Beat and a Honda CRX and now i've got a 2000 Facelift EJ9 civic with a few mods to it, but not enough..

So i'm here to gauge some opinions on what to do next and how is best to go about doing it!

Hope you can all share some advice and help me on my mission!

Peacee

Dude

Nice job you have


for an EJ9 i'd say your best bet is some suspension mod's so it drives nicely and then maybe in time a B series swap.

Mods:

Lowered the car with Eibach 40mm all around on KYB twin-tube gas shocks.
Camber set at -1.8 Front and -3 Rear.
15" Team Dynamics Drifz Alloys
195/50/15 Toyo Proxes T1R Tyres
Type R Front Bumper
Type R Skirts
Type R Grille
Cone Air Filter and Lightweight Alloy Air Ram - need D16 intake as intake is top mounted.
Had 3" Bore Exhaust with 5" Silencer but replaced for Stock as it sounds ridiculous.
SunStrip ''Made In Japan, Perfected By API'' (a little joke and promo for my employers)


Future Mods:

EK9 rear trailing arms with hubs and discs for rear brake conversion.
EK9 master cylinder and brake proportional valve for rear brake conversion.
Strengthened Bushes, whiteline or superpro or similar.
Braces front upper and rear upper - no point doing lower braces for road use.
D16 Intake manifold for side-feed intake.

Then maybe when I can get enough money in one place ill go for the B16 swap

Nice job you have

Cheers mate! Its good some days then other days it can be a nightmare!! Lots of tuner stuff here though mainly Imprezas and the like but hoping to branch out to Civic stuff if I can get enough experience on the buggers!
