2000 Honda Civic EX - RHD + Goodies.
Name: Trevor
Location: Newport News
Means of contact: This thread, or PM.
Trades: Reliable daily + Cash. Something a little newer. Nothing older than 2000.
Description:
Overview: It's a 2000 Honda Civic that I converted to RHD. Duane "nftuatn" Legge of these forums did the firewall cutting and welding. A couple of friends and I did the rest of the work.
From my knowledge. I am the only RHD EJ8/"EK" Coupe on the east coast, and one of like 5 in North America. These cars are possibly even rarer in Japan. In Japan, the only coupes of this body style were made in 96-98, and from what I can gather, where only sold as Work vehicles to companies. Because of this very few survived. In 99-00 the switched exclusively the much more popular Sedan and Hatch models. There are no "JDM" 96-00 Coupes.
This car is my daily. It runs like a champ. I bought the vehicle stock about 2.5 years ago. Car was well maintained and had up to date maintenance records.
Motor:
D16Y8 (40+ MPG)
AEM Intake Arm + Filter
Meghan Racing Headers
Custom 2.25" Piping to HKS Hi-Power Muffler. (Not to toot my own horn, but it sounds amazing for a single cam.)
152XXX Miles.
Exterior:
Ebay Black Housing Headlights
OEM CTR Lip
OEM CTR Front Bumper
OEM CTR Grille
Brand New Windshield
Interior:
Stockcarpets.com Type R Red Carpet
96-98 CTR Instrument Panel
OEM Radio Delete
CTR Dash + Middle Console + Cupholders (Radio Relocation)
OEM CTR Door Cards
All other plastics not pulled from the donor car were sprayed with Dupli-Color Vinyl Paint. (Could use a touch up coat)
3" Shifter Extension
Skunk2 Weighted Shift Knob
JDM Flare + Mount
Suspension:
Function & Form Type 1's (Still room to go lower.)
Function & Form LCA's.
ASR Subframe Brace
EK4 SiR Rack And Pinion
EK4 SiR Front Sway Bar
EK4 SiR Front LCA's (CTR)
Si Front Shock Forks
**More Stuff In Extras**
Brand New Outer Tie Rods
Brand New LBall Joints
Newer UBall Joints/Control Arms
Wheels:
Miro/Raderwerks STP-1 16x9 +15
Falken Ziex 912 205/40/16
Extras:
Never Used BBS Steering Wheel (Woodgrain w/ Leather Handle)
PW:JDM Rear 2 Point Trunk Brace (A couple knicks)
Benen 3PT Front Upper Sway Bar (Stripped for Powder Coating)
CTR Rear Sway
Bloxs Adjustable Endlinks
Crow Racing Harness x2
BAD:
Body is Taffetta White, fenders + sideskirts are Gloss White, Bumper/Grille/Lip are Championship White.
Carpet didn't sit very well in car, could be reinstalled for better fitment.
Front Turn Signals. Front Turn Signals need to be wired up (Have wiring and socket, just need to connect). Until then, turn signals only work when headlights turned off. Everything will work when turn signals connected.
Guage Cluster Wiring. For whatever reason, only my Gas and Temperature Guages are working. Speedo/Tach/Mileage are not reading/updating. I'm currently tracing this issue.
Gas guage reads an 1/8th of a tank higher than actual value. Found this out the hard way. Lol.
Odds and Ends:
This car gets some cool looks, and is really fun to drive.
I'm in no hurry to sell/trade it.
I have no fear about driving this car anywhere and would drive it anywhere in a heart beat.
Car will have a full exterior detail before selling. I usually am great at keeping up with it, but some life issues held me back from giving her the full attention she deserved.
Pictures:
I was running late, and didn't get a chance to put the Bumper/Sideskirts on the car before leaving. On the way to the honda meet.
She needed a bath
I've tried to be as upfront and honest as I can be, but I'm human and may have forgotten something good or bad. I'll update as I remeber.
Thanks for looking!
