My civic build up (well half of it)

[McLovin]

not a big fan.

Needs a stanard grill, that exhaust removing and oem wheels. You also seem to be spending too much on a 1.6 civic coupe. Never sat in one but they were never rated very highly.

So, a standard civic coupe then.

Never rated highly by who?

Spot on, lovely motor which looks like brand new.

Nice work

 

[Lopéz]

Nice looking, shame its all show and no go with that engine which looks to be an SOHC.

SOHC D series goes well, so it certainly isn't all show no go.

 

[Dreadi]

indeed, mines goes well enough, although it's probably more noise then go due to my BC pro spec

Nice motor btw

 

[_dogma_]

I like it...apart from the red H.

Take it off....it's not a Type R.

Maybe so, but B16 equipped ones do batter than 'go well', they are genuinely fast cars.

Agree with that, get rid of it. Other than that it looks nice, not OTT which i like.

 

[sniper007]

Thought it looked better with black wheels tbh

I say it doesn't matter. Type R is merely a trim level these days after all, what with the EP3 and the newer FN2.

Trim level? Its a completely different engine...

I'm being tongue-in-cheek/facetious

I own an EP3 myself

As for the red badge, well, it looks nice against the black.

 

[Fropome]

As for the red badge, well, it looks nice against the black.

Hence exactly why i put it on. I am not in any way trying to make it look like a type r. This car doesn't even come in a type r trim, i'm not trying to make it 'look like anything it's not'.

I just de-badged it one day then saw a red H badge and bought it, i could have bought it in green/blue/yellow/whatever but the red went along with my colour scheme.

next i'll have people asking why i've got red brake calipers.. 'it's not a type r'.. maybe not but they are integra type r brakes thats why

 

[fonzee]

looks top nice one!

I agree, keep it. matches the current colour coding

B16 being the 158bhp engine? Genuinelly fast car? Errrr no, it's a quick Civic.

 

[Clarkey]

yes, a quick civic which if driven well would show a clean pair of heels to your 230bhp 'ultimate driving machine'.

 

[[TW]Fox]

Your point being what? Surely a 'genuinely fast car' is something like an Audi RS4 not a Civic VTi. It's a quick hatch rather than a genuinely fast car irrespective of what I happen to drive.

 

[Clarkey]

whatever, i can't be arsed argueing, my point was that they are far more capable than the regular SOHC ones, which they are.

In your opinion. Thats what you would consider a fast car. Other people have different views.

Thats right, yes. It wasn't the opinion of my next door neighbour
