My last bought Honda is a Honda Orthia EF3 imported from Japan early this year.
Im not sure what to do with it, the plan was to put a Civic EK facelift front on it.

Nice!!
The funny thing is... after having seen YOUR car i wanted the Orthia so bad! Only my car has the oem tinted windows.
 
I know this is a old post but you still got the Orthia, and did you do the front end conversion?

Ive been looking at costs of importing one myself but i cant find any!

Does it use the same suspension and subframe as the EK hatch?
 
Hi, still got the Orthia.

Front-end conversion hasn't been done yet. Sebastian aka The Orthia Project did the conversion on his Orthia and it's just a matter of putting a Civic core support on the car and then you can bolt-on the Civic front-end.

The front subframe is the same as the EK. If you want to Kswap the car and want an EG subframe it's also an option.

Rear suspension is all different from the DC/EG or EK. It's more like the CRV suspension. You need DC/EG coilovers to lower it on the rear.


Ow... And there's one for sale here!
