Yep, you guessed it. I finally got a car!
A 92 EG Civic with a ZC engine. I only have this
pic of it for now but will get some more when I have
the opportunity! Any good starting mod ideas? Let me know!!

Andrew · 3rd March 2007, 12:14 PM

K20 swap.

Okay no, sack it out with some nice wheels and leave it at that for a daily driver :thumbsup:

3rd March 2007, 12:18 PM

ahh nice one danielle

Have seen this on trademe. Looks like a good example, especially in that colour with the SIR alloy wheels, looks just like an SiR-S. Good buy, congratulations.

GET RID OF THOSE GOD AWFUL SEATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you cant afford recaro's you can use either CRX Del-Sol seats or DC integra seats. Both are a great improvement and use the same rails.

lowproz · 3rd March 2007, 12:30 PM

My brother has mags + sounds if u want

nice car btw. how much u get it for?

d16a7 · 3rd March 2007, 12:35 PM

dc integra seats :thumbsup: may have some for sale soon but one has a broken headrest

dunno how though

but yeah nice car youl find they are relatively gutless and depending on the k's and how it had been driven the clutch will probably go soon

unless its been replaced..

mods list..

pod filter.. OR remove the intake resonator in the bumper.. 2nd option is cheaper and possibly has a better effect...

second, lower it nicely,

is it a GTi or Si? im assuming Si cos it doesnt have leather interior.. and i cant quite read the badge.. i think it says Si

SLOTEG · 3rd March 2007, 12:42 PM

pod and exhaust.
lowered on some wheels
tints
new front seats
sounds

done :thumbsup:

good buy tho, well done

CIVTEC · 3rd March 2007, 01:00 PM

Nice score ! :thumbsup:

IMO - Save up some coin, put some adjustables in it. Spray the whole muffler black, tint the windows, start debadging and polishing, heheh. That's what I'd do for visuals anyways ...

Go hard, do what you want to do to it. :wink:

JasITRDC5 · 3rd March 2007, 03:51 PM

always loved those early shape of the Civic hatches 8)

VTAKYO · 3rd March 2007, 03:56 PM

First thing - intake+pod filter. Then get some lowering springs. Then get some sounds. Don't just get a muffler, get a full system. And keep her clean!

DrRubber · 3rd March 2007, 03:59 PM

nice one chicky :thumbsup:

Absolutely couldn't agree more. I think Del Sol seats re better than DC seats though

And look cooler heh

kyw3 · 3rd March 2007, 07:54 PM

Nice and neat

Frost · 3rd March 2007, 08:54 PM

Nice one! I wanted an EG but when the EF popped up for the price it did - I just had to have it! Cool car anyways :thumbsup:

SQUERT · 4th March 2007, 06:54 AM

Nice, used to have an EF with the same DOHC ZC engine and it went very well for what it was 8)

Goodluck

berman · 4th March 2007, 08:18 AM

Get [ROOTYS] for a plate!

*only said it because I'm very suprised badcf4 didn't already*

metallicat71 · 4th March 2007, 08:32 AM

nice :thumbsup:

low_teg · 4th March 2007, 09:21 AM

very nice. get that horrible factory air box out of there and get a nice pod filiter, then save up and lower it and exhaust and sounds. mags look all good on it now

SK1TZ- EF · 4th March 2007, 09:55 AM

I have a spare motor you can go stupid with and put in when you are lacking in power...

The ZC is a good engine, very capable, just dont r@pe it 24/7, or the gearbox will decide to pwn you

ops:

Intake first, short shifter, exhaust, lower it, some nice 15s, and decent tyres, you will be set.

Debadge it too

and those seats just have to go....

and all those that havent noticed WELL DONE CHICKY ITS NOT AUTO!

sam :thumbsup:

fr3ek · 4th March 2007, 10:15 AM

If it were mine.... Lowered with adjustables or super low springs, some black rims with red lip (such as SSR Type-

, EK side skirts, and OEM EG6 SIR front lip.
