Hi guys, i've finally decided to do a build thread for my car! Well, where to start.........after owning a 1.4 EJ9 for a couple of years i'd finally saved up enough money (when I was 20) to part ex my civic for an EK9, the car I'd wanted since seeing it on Gran Turismo! That was 11 years ago now lol!
So I waved goodbye to my fast and furious, nos powered 1.4 and said hello to my 97 pre-facelift EK9, I'd been to look at a few and just wasn't happy with them and then I found this one, it was in very good condition with some nice parts fitted that would save me a fortune at the time, only downside was it was on about 120,000km but I saw past that.
Mods were:
Fujitsubo 4-2-1 manifold
de-cat
Fujitsubo legalis r full system
Field vtec controller
TEIN driving master type flex coilovers
Endless pads all round
sabelt harness
I was over the moon with the car, everything I wanted it to be, so within a few weeks I did my first trackday at Cadwell park and loved every minute of it!
