Currently has a mighty D16A init.








My friend is trading in his Toyota Echo for a Euro R, so I swapped wheels with him




Factory seats are quite ownd....

I thought this US version civic came with a stock B16A? Either way, I find it to be smartly styled for its age. Look forward to your progress.

the american Si EJ7s? (the EK shaped coupe) came out with B16As in them and also the australian spec EK coupes also came with B16s

there were also factory manual ones but they seem to be f**kin expensive and not many of them around, cheaper to buy an auto an convert to manual while your swapping out the sohc!
anyway subscribed!

Update:




Almost have everything I need now to do the conversion.

Got these rims for a bargain.

Euro R rims(Currently has Snow tyres on them, but i'm guessing thats why they were flippin cheap)


EK9 Rims, "jason_law" sold me these for an awesome price (I don't get to keep the tyres )



Full Air Con system removed, heres a few pics of when we got started.








Interior has been stripped down. No rear seats, no rear panels etc. 90% of sound deading removed. Will get some pics tomorrow.

[d16a7]
